Quotes
-
Parzival : People come to the Oasis for all the things they can do, but they stay for all the things they can be.
-
Aech : [Discussing Parzival's upcoming date with Art3mis] Z, you gotta be more careful about who you meet out on the OASIS.
Parzival : Aech, Art3mis gets me. She'll get my outfit, there's just this connection. I mean, sometimes, we even...
Aech : Finish each other's sentences.
Parzival : Yeah!
Aech : We have that, me and you.
Parzival : Yeah, I know. But that's because we're best friends, dude.
[Puts hand up for a high-five]
Aech : She could be a dude too, dude.
Parzival : Nah, come on.
Aech : I'm serious. She could actually be a 300 pound dude who lives in his momma's basement in suburban Detroit. And her name is Chuck.
[Puts hand on Parzival's shoulder]
Aech : Think about that.

[Ending Narration; Last lines]
Wade : The High Five took over the OASIS, and the first thing we did, was sign Ogden Morrow to a non-exclusive consultancy. The salary, per his demand, was 25 cents. One quarter.
[Wade flips the quarter in the air]
Wade : With his guidance, our second move was to ban any loyalty centers from accessing the OASIS. IOI had no choice. They shut 'em all down. The third thing we did wasn't as popular. We closed the OASIS on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I know it sounds like a weird move, but, people need to spend more time in the real world. 'Cause, like Halliday said, reality, is the only thing. That's real.
-
Parzival : It's not about winning, it's about playing.
-
Parzival : Since most people spend most of their time in the Oasis, losing your shit means, well, losing your shit.
-
Parzival : A creator who hates his own creation. A hidden key: a leap not taken. Retrace your steps, escape your past. And the key of Jade will be yours at last.
-
Parzival : How'd you get here before me?
Aech : Well, I didn't make a pit stop at the hair salon.
[slaps his hand to him]
Aech : What up, Z?
Parzival : What's up, Aech?
Aech : Saved you a spot.
Parzival : Thanks, bro.
Parzival : [saw a beeping fuel running low] I gotta go to the back.
Aech : Ugh. So you can skim coins from crashed cars? That's just SAD, man!
Parzival : Fuel's low.
Aech : Oh, but you still had enough to pay for that Something About Mary hairdo.
-
Aech : Yo, Z, is Art3mis pissed at me?
Parzival : Dude, I'm pissed at you! You've never seen The Shining, have you?
Aech : [complaining] YOU KNOW I HATE SCARY MOVIES!
Sho : We got the key!
[tosses the key to him]
Parzival : Sweet! To room 237!
Aech : We ain't got no business goin' to room 237! WE SHOULD STAY OUT! Plus, there was this crazy, naked zombie lady in there.
Parzival : There are no zombies The Shining!
Art3mis : Well, maybe it's not supposed to be LIKE the movie. Kira is the key. You're the one who said it.
Aech : Hey, y'all. I saw a picture of Kira!
Art3mis : Huh?
[they got knocked out]
Art3mis : [straining] Where?
-
Parzival : Aech, are you seeing this?
[turns right towards her]
Aech : Yeah, I see it. That's Kaneda's bike from Akira.
[holds up the scope and looks down]
Aech : It's a licensed skin over a standard frame.
Parzival : [panicking] No, not the bike! Forget the bike! The girl, I think it's Art3mis!
Aech : The Art3mis? The Sixer Fixer?
Parzival : I've seen all her walk-throughs, her Twitch streams.
[smiles]
Parzival : It's her. It's definitely her.
-
Daito : Look.
[flicks up the camera]
Daito : Ticking Clock.
Art3mis : Okay, so I'm estimating about... five minutes to find the key.
Parzival : Yeah, there are so many keys The Shining, though. Where do we start?
Aech : [puts his hand to his shoulder to come here] I've never seen The Shining. Is it really scary?
Sho : Uh, I had to watch it through my fingers.
Parzival : Okay, so we got the key from room 237, the keys to the Snowcat, or the keys they give Jack at the beginning of the movie.
Art3mis : [when Aech was depressed he looks and saw a tennis ball walks on the floor] Well, if it's "the leap not taken, maybe the key isn't a key at all.
Sho : [the tennis ball was still rolling] I know where the Snowcat keys are!
Parzival : I say we split up. We get all the keys and then we meet back at the Torrances' apartment.

Anorak : [He enters Central Park] Nice racing, padawan. You're the first to finish.
Parzival : [neels down stammering and looks at Anorak] M-Mr. Halliday. I... Anorak. It's such an honor.
Anorak : The honor's all mine.
[he holds the Copper Key and gives it to Parzival as he looks down]
Anorak : Get yourself a clue.
