Quotes

  Mark Mardon : [taking the weather wand instead]  Shut up! Get this through your thick head, little brother. We don't want to call attention to ourselves yet, though the time is fast approaching. Just sit back and watch the show.

• Ben Mardon : Please, Mark, I'm begging you. I made this machine to help people.

  Weather Wizard : Oh, please. Don't play innocent with me. You knew my intentions. You didn't wanna believe them. The machine was too important to you.

  Ben Mardon : Not that important. I won't be a party to mass murder.

  Weather Wizard : You want out? Fine.

  [opening a door]

  Weather Wizard : Just like that.

  Weather Wizard : Grow up.
