Quotes 

• Elaine : I hate L.A.

• [last lines] 

  Elaine : Jarrod?

• Elaine : What... What is it?

  Jarrod : They're not dead. They're just really, really pissed off.

• Elaine : Jarrod, what are you doing?

  Jarrod : The only thing we can do. Making a run for it!

  Oliver : What's this really about?

  Jarrod : Those things are coming for us!

  Oliver : You think I haven't noticed that? You think I haven't noticed that mess under your shirt? The plan is we stay here and hold up... for good!

  Elaine : I agree!

  Jarrod : You're going to let him decide everything? Look around you! We have no power. No more running water.

  Elaine : Yeah, but you saw what is out there! We will not get 100 yards from this building!

  Jarrod : Yeah, and I would rather take a stupid chance out there trying to make a run for it then staying up here in a 20-story target! Between those things and the radiation, we are dead up here!

  Candice : Where are they going?

  Jarrod : [to Elaine]  Those choppers are coming back for them. We have to go up to the roof and get rescued. We're gonna get out of here.

  Elaine : What if they don't come back? Look what happened to all those planes! What good is it trying to get away in a helicopter? We'll never make it with those things in the air!

  Jarrod : I don't care! We need to take a chance!

  Oliver : A chance? They just nuked a city! And you want to wave hello?

  Jarrod : I'm not kidding anymore, Oliver. You need to back off!

  Oliver : You're in no condition to decide anything and who knows what side you're on? If you go out there and try to run those things will see you and you'll be dead!

  Jarrod : [getting more belligerent]  I told you to back off! Don't make me hurt you!

• Oliver : [to Jarrod]  All right, I'll bite. What's your plan now, boss man? Because I'm dying for you to tell me.

  [pause] 

  Oliver : What? Nothing to say?

  Jarrod : We're sitting on the marina for christ sake!

  Oliver : I've noticed it.

  Jarrod : They're hundreds of boats at the docks...

  Candice : We've been through all this!

  Oliver : Remind us how that worked out last time.

  Jarrod : [trying to think]  Well... uh... we... we'll go quietly this time. We wait until... uh... it gets a little quiet then we'll go down the back stairs and uh...

  Oliver : We tiptoe to the marina... on foot in broad daylight with little cover and just search every boat until we find the right one with the key? Great plan!

  Elaine : [to Jarrod]  I can't believe you're even suggesting this after what happened!

  Jarrod : What are you saying? What... are you saying that Terry's death was my fault? Are you blaming me for what happened?

  Elaine : I was practically begging you not to go, but you and Terry wouldn't listen to me!

  Jarrod : And if I had, do you really think Terry would have listened to me? Huh?

  Elaine : [a bright blue light shines through the blinds and the bed shakes]  Oh, how's it morning already?
