The Husband: What about volunteers?
The African American Man: What?
Pretty Girl: Volunteers?
The Husband: [the Asian kid calls him nuts] I don't know. maybe someone wants to step forward.
Guy: I'll do it.
The Cancer Survivor: Why?
The Lawyer: Now wait a minute. He doesn't have to tell you or anybody else why. He's volunteered. That's enough.
The Cancer Survivor: Well I wanna know why.
The Lawyer: Lady, it's none of your business.
Bruce: Hey, let him answer.
The Cancer Survivor: Why.
Guy: I guess I just don't wanna kill anyone.
The One-Armed Man: How old are you?
Guy: 16.
The One-Armed Man: No someone else
The Lawyer: What do you mean, someone else?
The One-Armed Man: He's a fucking kid, man.
The Lawyer: He's 16. that's old enough.
The One-Armed Man: Old enough to what, to die?
The Lawyer: To make your own decisions.
The One-Armed Man: He's a stupid kid. He doesn't know any better.
The Lawyer: I don't care. If you volunteer, you volunteer. It's his choice. If he wants to die
The Oldest Man: Yeah, yeah, that's right. If someone wants to volunteer, we should respect that, no matter who it is. Son, what's your name.
Guy: I'm Shaun.
The Oldest Man: Shaun. Are you sure you wanna volunteer?
The Pilot: No! I'll do it. It's fine.
[He steps off and gets eliminated]
The Oldest Man: Well, this Is gonna be easier if we can get a few volunteers.
The One-Armed Man: Easier for who you?
The Oldest Man: Look, we gotta take control of the... The situation, and this is the best way.
The Lawyer: I mean, hey, if we're all gonna die, it might as well be on our own terms.
The One-Armed Man: Yeah, yeah, that'll teach those fucking aliens.
The Husband: [sarcastically] Hey, we're doing what we can, man.
The Lawyer: Yeah, it's the best idea we got.
The One-Armed Man: Then you volunteer.
The Lawyer: I don't see you stepping forward.
The One-Armed Man: We should all step forward. I mean everybody but her.
[to the little girl]

The Atheist: [after the one arm man says that they should all volunteer] so mass suicide, then? That's great. Let's do that.
The Rich Man: Hey, kid, you still wanna volunteer?
The One-Armed Man: No.
Shaun: Yes.
The Lawyer: You're a fucking hero, kid, you know that?
Shaun: Yeah, right.
The Lawyer: No, I'm serious. Look, if I make it out of here, I'm naming my next kid after you.
The Lawyer: [as Shaun volunteers] thanks Scott.
The Rich Man: Thank you, Scott.
The One-Armed Man: Fucking assholes. You knew his name was Shaun.
The Lawyer: Whatever. The kids a hero.
The Asian Kid: He bought us two minutes. Somebody toss him a heart.
The Soldier: All right, enough.
[Notices how everyone is looking at him]
The Soldier: What? What are you looking at me for? You think it should be me? I was in Afghanistan for the past two years risking my life to keep the rest of you safe. I just got back two days ago. I was on my way to see my family. I got a seven month old... who doesn't even know who I am. My wife... I haven't seen my wife in... I'm not fucking dying in here. I'm not. I'm going home to them.
The Cancer Survivor: Don't worry. I'm not voting for you.
The Teenage Girl: Me neither.
The African American Man: Yeah, we're gonna get out of here, man.
The Asian Kid: Yeah, sure we are.
The African American Man: Come on, man.
The Asian Kid: No, you come on, man. He knows the truth. We all do let's just accept it.
[Someone tells him to stop]
The Asian Kid: You're gonna die dude. We all are.
