The Soldier : You're fucking pathetic man. You'd kill a kid to save your own life?
The Rich Man : Yeah, that's right. I want to live, just like you.
The Soldier : No, not just like me. I wouldn't do that.
The Rich Man : Oh, yeah, well, we'll see what you do when it's your ass on the line.
The Soldier : No, I don't think you will.
The Rich Man : What's that supposed to mean? Huh? What, y-y- You're gonna kill me now? Why? Because I want to live, huh? I'm.. I'm a fucking bad person because I don't want to fucking die in here? You know what? Fine. You want to play games? I'l play your game. I say we get rid of both of them right now, starting with the kid! That gives us all a chance to walk out of here alive. Now, I know I'm not the only one in here that wants to do that.
The Bearded Man : He's right. There's 15 of us left. All we need is six to even the playing field.
The One-Armed Man : This isn't a game.
The Bearded Man : No, it's not. But you decided to make it a game when you show sides. Well, we chose. We just chose the side that said everyone in here is equal. No one's special. You of all people should understand that.
The Rich Man : Hey, you. Don't you love your wife
The Husband : Of course, I do.
The Rich Man : Well, well, don't you want to give her a chance to get out of here? Huh? How's that going to happen if you're on their side?
The Bearded Man : Listen to him. If you choose their side, you're just sentencing your wife to death. Our way will give her a chance to live.
The Rich Man : Right.
The Husband : Yeah, yeah, b-but...
The Rich Man : But nothing! Do you want to save her or not?
The Husband : Okay, okay, fine! We're in!

The Soldier : We're voting for you. Come on, people! Don't you want to live?
The African American Man : [Rich man ties with the little girl] All right, make them tie again. They'll both die. Thats fair.
The Rich Man : What?

The Rich Man : Jesus Christ!
