Michelle ForbesQuotes

President: What's it to be, Plissken? Us or them?

Snake: Shut down the Third World; they lose, you win. Shut down America; you lose, they win. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

President: So what are you going to do?

Snake: [Types "666" on the remote] Disappear.

Brazen: [looks at Sword of Damocles system display; to the President] He's entered the world code...no target code. Sir, that'll shut down the entire planet.

Snake: I told you, you'd better hope I didn't make it back.

Malloy: [takes one step closer and pleads] You push that button, everything we've accomplished for the past 500 years will be finished. Our technology, our way of life, our entire history. We'll have to start all over again. For God's sakes, don't do it, Snake!

Snake: [pushes the button; the Sword of Damocles EMP satellites fire off, disabling all electrical systems - including Utopia's electric chair just before she is to be executed] The name's Plissken.

Utopia: [as the light fades out] He did it! He shut down the Earth!

Snake: Welcome to the human race.

Brazen: [[w:Hologram|hologram] He's not even here, he's a ]!

Snake: Catches on quick, doesn't she?

POTUS: Would you explain to this foot soldier why he's going to do what we tell him to do?

Snake: What's he talking about?

Malloy: The Plutoxin Seven virus.

Brazen: Genetically engineered. One-hundred percent pure death.

Malloy: It starts with a slight headache, then turns into a fever that gets worse. After a short time, you crash. You bleed out like a stuck pig. Not a pretty sight.

Snake: I get it. You figure that you inject that shit into me, and under the threat of death, I'll do whatever you say... just like in New York.

Malloy: You got it... Snake!

Snake: One question: which one of you assholes gets to die trying to stick me?

Malloy: You don't understand. It's already in you.

Brazen: Catches on quick, doesn't he?

Early Grayce: You haven't even said thank you.

Adele Corners: Thank you.

Early Grayce: Thank you for what, Adele?

Adele Corners: I don't know, Early.

Early Grayce: Well, Adele, it's for saving your fucking life back there! Goddamn! You were this close, momma, from spending the night in the county morgue.

Carrie Laughlin: He wasn't going to shoot her, you murdering son of a bitch!

Brian Kessler: Stop it, Carrie.

Carrie Laughlin: What are you fucking insane?

Brian Kessler: Shut up!

Carrie Laughlin: God, why are you so fucking blind, Brian? He's a murderer for crying out loud.

Brian Kessler: Just shut up!

Early Grayce: Goddamn bunch of loons.

Early Grayce: [after shooting two cops] Got them both on the dead run.

Adele Corners: No! No, no, no Early!

Early Grayce: [Walks over to Brian who is standing over the wounded cop; Hands Brian a gun while pointing another one at his head] Come on, momma. Tell me that don't hurt. Here.

Brian Kessler: What?

Early Grayce: Gotta put that crippled dog out of his misery. You wanna know about it, you gotta do it, son. Shoot him. Come on, lay it on in there. Come on, mean boy. Come on, mean boy. Do it! Shoot him! Shoot the dog! Time to live, boy. Shoot him. Come on. Go! Go, mean boy.

Early Grayce: You faggot.

Brian Kessler: Look at his face! It's not your father. Look at him!

Early Grayce: I know that, you idiot. That's police in a world of hurting. This here's a mercy killing.

Carrie Laughlin: Oh God!

Early Grayce: Let's hit the road.

Brian Kessler: [at the sound of a gunshot] What was that?

Adele Corners: [nervously] Nothing, Brian. It was just the thunder. Oh my God.

Brian Kessler: [to Early who's dragging Carrie along] Hey, Early, what the fuck are you doing? We talked about this.

Early Grayce: [throws Carrie into backseat with him] Oh, Brian. You gonna like this one. Get in. Big fella you riding shotgun. Adele, you drive.

Brian Kessler: What's going on? What are you doing?

Early Grayce: Come on bud, let's go. Get us out of here momma.

Brian Kessler: What happened back there?

Carrie Laughlin: [crying] Oh my God. He shot him. He shot him in the head.

Brian Kessler: Who shot who in the head?

Adele Corners: No, he didn't Carrie.

Early Grayce: [chuckles] Everybody just shut up! Goddamn, bitch, quit squawking. Nothing's changed. I'm gonna get you there, safe, to California. That is, if Adele don't kill us with her driving first.

Adele Corners: My God, Carrie. If Early ever saw me in a picture like that I'd be black-and-blue for a week.

Carrie Laughlin: You shouldn't let him do that to you.

Adele Corners: You think Early's mean to me? Well, he's not. He may punish me once in a while, but he's not mean. Um, when I was 13 there was these three boys and they raped me in the back of this truck. They hurt me so bad that I was in the hospital for, like, four months. And I feel safe with Early cause most of the time he treats me really nice. I know that he'd never. He would never let anything like that ever happen to me again.

Early Grayce: [looking at Carrie's photos, dropping them to the ground after looking at each one; photo shows a person with white mask on; drops it and proceeds to the next photo] Boring. Boring. Dog shit. Now that don't leave much to the imagination, does it? I know him. That's my daddy. Fucker. Boring. [drops it and then pauses a moment studying the next photo. That's you ain't it?

Carrie Laughlin: Yeah, that's me. Do you like it? What do you think?

Early Grayce: [studies it a moment longer, jabs his finger through it and then sticks his tongue through it; drops photo on ground; to Brian as he sits back in chair] Dog shit! Boring. Stinky. Stinky. You gotta learn how to control your woman better. But lucky for you, they take all kinds in California. That's where we'll be tomorrow. California.

Adele Corners: Know what, Brian? One night when we was stayin up late we was talkin bout how much bad luck he must have comin from all those mirrors he broke, and I swear we came to 449 years it would take for him to work it all off, and he'd have to - after he died - he's gonna have to keep comin back to earth over and over and over again.

Carrie Laughlin: [[Karma] ].

Adele Corners: What?

Carrie Laughlin: Karma. You know, when you do something bad to someone and fate pays you back by something bad happening to you.

Adele Corners: [blowing a bubble] Is that French?
