What's it to be, Plissken? Us or them?
Snake
Shut down the Third World; they lose, you win. Shut down America; you lose, they win. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
So what are you going to do?
Snake
Disappear. [Types "666" on the remote]
Brazen
He's entered the world code...no target code. [to the President] Sir, that'll shut down the entire planet.
Snake
I told you, you'd better hope I didn't make it back.
Malloy
You push that button, everything we've accomplished for the past 500 years will be finished. Our technology, our way of life, our entire history. We'll have to start all over again. [takes one step closer and pleads] For God's sakes, don't do it, Snake!
Snake
The name's Plissken. [pushes the button; the Sword of Damocles EMP satellites fire off, disabling all electrical systems - including Utopia's electric chair just before she is to be executed]
He did it! He shut down the Earth!
Snake
Welcome to the human race.
