Quotes

The Atheist : [after an old lady volunteered to sacrifice herself; mockingly to the minister] "You'll see him again. Absolutely."
[serious tone]
The Atheist : bullshit.
The Asian Kid : Yeah, seriously.
The Translator : He was just trying to give her some peace in her last moments of life. There's nothing wrong with that.
The Deacon : She sacrificed herself so that others could live. That doesn't go unnoticed.
The Asian Kid : Says who?
The Deacon : Says God.
The Asian Kid : How do you know?
The Deacon : I'm a minister. God is watching over all of us. He has a plan. We just have to have faith.
The Lawyer : Amen.
The Asian Kid : Enough, man.
The Deacon : I'm sorry?
The Asian Kid : With all due respect... that's just bullshit.
The Atheist : Standing around there talking about faith when people are being blasted to shit left and right. Thats fucking ridiculous.
The Husband : Hey, man...
The Atheist : If there is God, he doesn't give a shit about any of us!
Wife : That's not true.
The Atheist : Oh, my god, we're all dying in here. This shit's not gonna end until this motherfucker gets all of us, okay? So you wanna have faith in something? Have faith in this!
[pointing to the orb]
The Atheist : okay? Because that's God in here now, right? Thats God, right now, in here. So pray to him or ask him, even better. I mean, what does thou sayeth, God? Who among us will get to go to your divine kingdom?
The Husband : Hey, take it easy.
The Atheist : Or what? Your gonna fucking kill me 'cause I have an opinion? Just as valid as yours, man. Looking around this room, actually, I think I might have some friends. I think people agree with me.
The Husband : 95% of people believe in God. You're in the minority.
The Atheist : Yeah, well, 95% of people are idiots.
The Husband : [offended] are you calling us idiots?
The Atheist : [getting extremely nervous when he sees everybody's voting] I'm not calling anybody idiots, all right? All I'm saying is this. If there is a God, is this something... Does this seem like he would allow this? Is this something he would do?
[He ties with the young girl]
The Atheist : You fuckers are going to kill me because you're afraid I'm right? What are you doing? You're fucking cowards huh?
The Young Girl : [terrified] Wait, please. I didn't even say anything wrong. He did.
The Atheist : [angry] who the fuck is this?
[the young girl gets voted offscreen]

The Bearded Man : [about the married couple actually being married] let's put 'em in a tie and see what happens.
The Husband : What?
The Bearded Man : If they're married, there's no way they will vote for each other.
The Husband : [confesses] Okay. We made it up. But it was her fucking idea.
Wife : What?
The Husband : Yeah, yeah I just went along with it.
Wife : No, he said it first. I had nothing to do with it.
The Husband : Come on! she's a liar. Look at her.
Wife : Please don't kill me.
The Husband : No, kill this bitch!
[He gets voted]

The Bearded Man : [after the African American man was eliminated] Of course. True love conquers all.
The Soldier : You're out of options, my friend.
The Bearded Man : Yeah? Well, you all just killed yourselves. Congratulations.
[Pointing to the soldier, Cancer survivor and Silent Man]
The Bearded Man : You, you, you. You all did this.
[to the husband]
The Bearded Man : and you.. you just killed your wife. I hope you're happy.
The Husband : I did what I had to do.
The Bearded Man : Yeah, well, now she's gonna die because of you. At least my way gave her a chance.
The Soldier : Just shut the fuck up, man.
The Husband : Yeah, man, just drop it.
The Bearded Man : They're probably not even married.
The Husband : What?
The Bearded Man : I mean, think about it. What are the odds of them being the only married couple in here?
The Cancer Survivor : Those other two knew each other.
The Bearded Man : So they said.
The Soldier : That's not gonna work, dude.
The Bearded Man : So you're saying that they're married and that they just happen to be placed right next to each other? Uh-uh. Think about it, people. Isn't it possible that they just made this whole thing up?
The Soldier : No.
Pretty Girl : Why would they lie?
The Bearded Man : To survive. Nobody wants to kill someone's wife or husband. Especially right in front of each other. They just made this whole thing up to get our sympathy.
The Husband : You're crazy.
The Bearded Man : Am I? How long have you been married?
The Husband : Five years.
The Bearded Man : What's his parents names?
Wife : Erm... Mark and Lisa.
The Bearded Man : Where'd she go to college?
The Husband : UCLA.
Pretty Girl : When's his birthday?
Wife : Er.. April.
The Bearded Man : April...
Wife : 9th. April 9th.
The Lesbian : What's his name?
Wife : What?
Wife : What is your husband's name?
The Cancer Survivor : He already said his name?
The Bearded Man : That's right he did.
Pretty Girl : When?
The Bearded Man : The first time he spoke. He said his name.
The Husband : Just drop it man, ok?
The Bearded Man : What's his name?
Pretty Girl : She doesn't know.
The Bearded Man : Of course she doesn't.
The Husband : Yes of course she does she's just not gonna play you're fucking game.

The Soldier : Listen. We can't be afraid to talk to each other in here. It's the only way we're going to figure out how to stop this.
The Atheist : Come on, man. We're not gonna stop this. We're just fucked.
The Translator : We don't know that.
The Soldier : Exactly we don't know anything yet. If they wanted to kill us they would have done that already, but they didn't. So let's use this time and try and figure out why.
The Lesbian : Okay. What do we do?
The Cancer Survivor : Maybe we should figure out why they chose us.
The Asian Kid : Chose us?
The Cancer Survivor : Yeah. Why they picked us to be in here.
The Asian Kid : It was a giant space vacuum, right? I don't think we were handpicked.
The Atheist : Yeah. He's right. This is... This is just random.
The Cancer Survivor : We don't know that, maybe it wasn't random. Maybe they chose us for a reason.
The Asian Kid : There's probably a zillion people doing the same thing we're doing right now.
The Cancer Survivor : Okay but it's just us in here, right? I think we need to know more about each other. Maybe if we do, this will all make sense.
The Soldier : It's worth a shot. Anybody want to start?
Beth : Uh, yeah. I'll go first. Hi, I'm Beth. Um, I live in Woodland Hills, California, but originally I'm from Richmond Virginia born and raised. I've worked in human resources for the past 11 years. Um, I just kind of fell into it. I actually went to college to be an English major University of Virginia. Go Wahoos. I'm 36, single. No kids. But I do have two nephews from my sister Noreen. She's actually my twin sister. What else? Um... Oh, I have a dog. Her name is Clooty and she's a terrier mix. And I have two cats, J.J. and Ricky
[the countdown begins she gets nervous]
Beth : Oh, my god. Um... I think that's about it. I-is there anything else I should say?
The Cancer Survivor : No, that's great. Great job. Who wants to go next?
[Beth gets voted]
The Cancer Survivor : what?
Wife : At least she didn't have kids.
The Husband : Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
The Translator : So what? That doesn't matter. she was still a human being just like any of you.

Wife : Do you think there are other people? Doing this?

The Bearded Man : [after the fake husband got voted] Why are you crying?
Wife : Just shut the fuck up, alright?
The Bearded Man : You shouldn't have lied to us?
Wife : I didn't lie.
Pretty Girl : Yes, you did. You said you were married.
Wife : I am married. Just not to him and I do have a daughter, Emily. I didn't lie about that.
The Bearded Man : How many people in here do you think were married? Had husbands, wives, kids? You had no problem with killing any of them?
Wife : I didn't kill them.
The Bearded Man : Yes, you did.
The Soldier : We all did.
The Bearded Man : But listen, you still have a chance to make it out of here. There's 11 of us left. We just need 6 votes. If you join our side, I promise I will keep you alive.
The Soldier : Don't listen to him. He's just trying to use you.
The Bearded Man : Hey, you want to get out of here? You want to go back home and see your real husband, see Emily? Yeah. Good.
[to the silent man]
The Bearded Man : How about you? What side are you on?
[Silent man doesn't say anything]
The Bearded Man : What, you don't speak? Okay, he doesn't want to tell us who he's voting for. And that's fine. I understand that. Nobody wants to make enemies in here. I'm gonna go ahead and say that he's on our side.
[to the lesbian]
The Bearded Man : you have a daughter, don't you? What's her name?
The Lesbian : Chloe.
The Bearded Man : That's a beautiful name... Chloe. You want to see her again?
The Lesbian : Obviously.
The Bearded Man : And your partner?
The Lesbian : Wife. Amelia.
The Bearded Man : Chloe and Amelia. Do you want to see both of them again?
The Lesbian : [regretfully] I'm sorry.
The Soldier : Hey, wait a minute. Wait a minute.
The Bearded Man : Hey that's five. We just need one more. Come on, people... one more.
The Lesbian : Who are we voting for?
The Bearded Man : The army guy.
Pretty Girl : No! Pick somebody else.
The Bearded Man : Uh, the cancer lady?
The Cancer Survivor : What?
The Soldier : No, no, no, all right. You all know who to vote for.
[the soldier, the cancer survivor, the lesbian, the pretty girl, and the bearded man all tie]
The Soldier : Shit! Fuck.
[the soldier, lesbian, the pretty girl and the cancer survivor get voted offscreen]
