Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: [New York late at night and both men can't sleep so they decide to go for a walk. It's cold outside and both are bundled up] It's all so unreal. I guess I'm just having a little trouble separating reality from whatever the hell this is.

[They both laugh]
Jeff Skiles: Sully
[pause]
Jeff Skiles: don't worry. You did a great thing and it's going to be remembered for a very long time.

Jeff Skiles: Come on. Tomorrow's going to be a good day. Computer SIMS will prove you were right and we can all put our wings back on.
Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger: Do you want to run?
[Both men go jogging on down the street]
