Penny: I don't want to fall asleep. Okay? Don't let me fall asleep. Promise.

Dodge: I promise. What about your parents?

Penny: They're romantics. They understand. Besides, they've got each other. I just want to be with you.

Dodge: And I want to be with you.

Penny: I couldn't live without you. No matter how long. What do we do now?

Dodge: I just want to lay here with you. Just want to talk to you.

Penny: Okay. What are we gonna talk about?

Dodge: Where'd you grow up?

Penny: Well, I was born in Surrey. My whole family are from there. My mum was a journalist before she married my dad. They never fought. Or at least we never heard them fight. Charlie's the oldest, then Benny, then me. We had a sister but she died when she was born. I still think about her.

Penny: Oh God.

Dodge: What was her name? What was your sister's name?

Penny: Patricia. Patricia Hope Lockhart.

Dodge: That's beautiful. That's a beautiful name.

Penny: I wish I'd met you a long time ago. When we were kids.

Dodge: It couldn't have happened any other way. It had to happen now.

Penny: But it isn't enough time.

Dodge: It never would have been.

Penny: I'm scared.

Dodge: I... am madly in love with you, Penny. You're my favorite, favorite thing.

Penny: I thought that somehow we'd save each other.

Dodge: We did. Penny. I'm really glad I got to know you.

Radio Announcer: OK, what we're getting now is - yes, they're saying it was in fact a fire that erupted inside the external tank of the ship, exactly ninety-eight seconds after it entered the asteroid field. No one is sure what caused the fire which led to the massive explosion, killing all twelve crew members and scientists aboard the space shuttle Deliverance, taking with them our last and only hope. Once again, if you're just tuning in, the CSA space shuttle Deliverance has been destroyed. The final mission to save mankind has failed. The seventy mile wide asteroid known commonly as Matilda is set to collide with Earth in exactly three weeks time, and we'll be bringing you up-to-the-minute coverage of our countdown to the 'End of Days', along with *all* your classic rock favorites. This is Q 107.2.

Dodge: [listening on the car radio] I think we missed the exit.
