[looking at the zombies in the mall]

What are they doing? Why do they come here?

Stephen

Some kind of instinct. Memory, of what they used to do. This was an important place in their lives.

[hearing the zombies pounding against the shopping mall's glass doors]

They're still here.

Stephen

They're after us. They know we're still in here.

They're after the place. They don't know why, they just remember. Remember that they want to be in here.

What the hell are they?

They're us, that's all, when there's no more room in hell.

Stephen

What?

Something my granddad used to tell us. You know Macumba? Voodoo. My granddad was a priest in Trinidad. He used to tell us, "When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth."

[Peter handles a very expensive rifle]

Ain't it a crime.

Stephen

What?

The only person who could miss with this gun is the sucker with the bread to buy it.

Stephen
[while flying in the helicopter]

We've got to find more fuel. Maybe closer to Cleveland.

No. We've got to stay out of the big cities. If they're anything like Philly, We may never get out alive.

We may never get out of anyplace alive. We almost didn't get out of here.

We're gettin' out of here fine. As long as there's not to many of those things around, we can handle them easy.

Yeah, well it wasn't one of those things that nearly blew me away.

We gotta stay in the sticks! There's bound to be more of those little private airports upstate.

Stephen

There's the locks along the Allgheny. There's fuel stations there, state and private owned.

No, those are probably still manned. We don't need those hassles either.

Stephen

They're just out after scavengers and looters.

Oh, you got papers for this limousine?

Stephen

I've got GON I.D., and so does Fran.

Right, and we're up here doin' traffic reports? Wake up, sucker! We're thieves and we're bad guys. That's exactly what we are. We gotta find our own way.
