Zeus Carver: [slowly] I have to answer that phone.

Transit Cop: Get em up!

Zeus Carver: [picks up the receiver] Look, if you have to shoot me, then you go ahead, and you shoot me! But I have to answer this phone, alright?! I'm here.

Simon Gruber: And McClane?

Zeus Carver: He's on his way. Uh, you know, he's a little slow. He's kinda outta shape.

Simon Gruber: [hangs up. The screeching of wheel flanges can be heard from inside the tunnel] The rules applied to both of you. I'm afraid this is noncompliance. Goodbye.

Zeus Carver: [He immediately assumes the brace position. The downtown #3 train that the bomb has been planted in enters the station. At the back of the tenth car, McClane smashes the panel on the door and throws the bomb out onto the tracks. As he does that, the front wheels of the first car pass over a trip wire over the inner rail that activates the detonator. The bomb goes off in midair, causing the last car to separate from the wheel bogies. The carbody slides along the island platform, taking out the station columns and signs, emitting a large plume of dust at the station entrances on the street. The transit cop stands still, petrified at the scene] Trust me guys. Duck.

Zeus Carver: [He pulls the transit cop under the stairs. The derailed car hits the stairway and turns on its side] Get down!
