Control Over the Entity's Source Code
Ethan
You think I'm gonna get the source code and bring it to you?

Benji
The Anti-God?!
Gabriel
It wasn't a biological or a chemical weapon you took from Shanghai. The vial you traded for Julia contained malicious code. The primordial digital ooze from which a weapon evolved. A weapon the East couldn't make work. A weapon the West might never have made on their own.
Benji
You didn't know what you were stealing! None of us did!
Ethan
But I knew why I was stealing it. They kidnapped my wife. Stealing the Rabbit's Foot was the only way I could get her back. I sank that submarine as much as the Entity did.
Gabriel
Without you, Ethan, there'd be no Entity. And if you don't find that sub in the next few days...
Grace
It's the end of the world as we know it.
Gabriel
And it'll all be his fault. He knows it. Look at me. Tell me I'm wrong.

[takes a sip then puts the beer down]
Bob Morales
Old Steve, boy. He always said you'd be somebody and I bought it, too. If that's the way Steve wanted it that's the way it was going to be. Even after he told me he wasn't my dad. Once I knew the full score, I understood why he treated you just a little bit better than me. Okay? I said it, you know. I said, I'll just hang around for the leftovers, like a dog. That's how much I loved him. Like a goddamn dog.
Ritchie Valens
Bob we don't have to talk about this right now.
Bob Morales
No! Shit, no, I want to talk about this right now and you're gonna listen to me!
Ritchie Valens
This is a crock of shit man!
Bob Morales
No, he set you up, man, to conquer the world and didn't leave me shit!
Ritchie Valens
Nobody told you to throw your life away man! I'm only sorry I didn't say something about you being drunk half the time. You did it to yourself!
Bob Morales
Listen to you, coming in here like you own the whole goddamn country. To me you'll always be that little asshole who followed me around in the sticks.
Ritchie Valens
Yeah, I followed you around man. I followed you around cause I thought you were somebody... then!
