"You don't know what'd happen if you killed this one." "It could destroy the system, but that doesn't matter." "I know." "Everything must be balanced." "The party line." "What do you think would happen?" "Some people think you'd explode, some people think you'd implode." "You're missing one." "Some people think you'd become a god." "That's the one." "The man you've been seeing, the "you, " he was an MVA agent." "Once he was forced to defend himself against himself in another universe." "Killed him." "In doing so, part of the other life's energy transferred to him." "Made him stronger." "Made all of you stronger." "Each time he kills one of you, the energy divides among the survivors." "So, I'm next?" "You're the last." "You and him are it." "I don't want any part of this." "You don't have a choice." "First choice, give up." "Second choice, die." "Third choice." "So, if everything you say is true  what happens to me?" "Nobody's got all the answers." "I don't believe you." "Stay away." "I'm alone now." "I'm here to help you." "Sir, I have to ask you to hold it right there." "I said freeze, asshole!" "Don't you people ever learn?" "Clear." "Let them have a look first." "I have to do my girl stuff." "Thanks." "TV is on." "Yeah, I left it on." "When I got the call about Gabe, I just ran." "Grabbed my jacket, rushed downstairs." "I'll turn it off." "Bobby?" "I appreciate you being here with me and I don't want to sound rude, but  can I have a little privacy?" "Sorry, T. K." "I'll be right outside." "Thanks." "I told you it's not wasted space." "You all right?" " I'm afraid." " Me, too." "Is it safe to come down?" "No, there are sheriffs all over." "I need my gun." "I left it at the hospital." "I need a weapon." "Yeah, okay." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "They can see inside." "I'm just gonna pull the shade." "Jesus." "Did you ever think when we met that day at the bookstore  we'd be in this kind of mess?" "Even if I knew, I still would have come in." "It wasn't a bookstore." "Just so you know, I'm going to take that gun  and kill you before you can pull the trigger." "There's nothing you can do except give it to me." "Gabe, drop it!" "Drop it now!" "Drop it!" "Get in!" "Hey, knock it off!" " You're acting like him." " I am him!" "Without her." "My grandfather taught me the energy of life goes in a circle  in a perfect flow, balanced." "He said, until I find my center  my circle would never be whole." "That day, I first saw her in the clinic  I came in with a dog that was hit by a car." "I knew right away she was my center." "She made me whole." "How do I kill him?" "In an hour, there's a forecasted wormhole opening." "Three-minute window." "He's attuned to your life wave." "He'll try to find you, kill you, and get back to the hole." "That's where we get him."

"We kill him, then it's over." "Hey, you two!" "Come on!" "Check that shit!" "Let's go." "What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "Permission to speak, sir." "I know what I have to do." "I'll never get the chance to thank you for sguaring me away." "So, thank you, sir." "I'm calling the cops." "Just making sure you know, if we kill him" "You have to kill me." "Kill me!" "I don't care." "As long as he's dead, I don't care." "If we kill him  there's a chance, some say, this whole universe could go with him." "The Chinese guy was tearing the place apart." "Wormhole ETA: ten minutes." "That vicinity." "He's here." "Shit." "Take cover!" "It's a bomb!" "Don't breathe for 20 seconds after the blast!" "Yulaw!" "You came here for me."

"They'll lock him up for life." "He will be cared for, watched over." "Like the other." "Balance will be preserved." "The wormhole closes in 40 seconds!" " Sir, permission to speak" " Permission denied." "That order is bullshit!" "It doesn't matter." "Take him!" "I know where he has to go." "I have to send you where you belong." "It's procedure." "Coordinates accepted." "'Bye, Gabe." "Wormhole opens in  five, four, three  two, one." "Look out!" "Hey, you all right?" "Ollie?" "Excuse me, I have a...." "What happened?" "Car." "Do I know you?" " Fresh fish." " Got a pretty mouth." "I am Yulaw!" "I'm nobody's bitch." "You are mine." "I don't need to know you."
