Lawrence quotes from Maze Runner: The Death Cure (2018)

Lawrence

Do you know what I am– Thomas? I am a businessman– which means that I don't– take– unnecessary risks.

Lawrence

Don't be scared. I may not be pretty– but we all know who the enemies are, cowering behind those walls! They have a name– for people like us in there. They call us Cranks! But I say that they are the monsters. They're the ones who started this war, but tonight– we will finish it. Follow me. Follow me and we will show them the faces of the people that they have chosen to forget! Follow me and this city is yours!

[Thomas, Newt, Gally, Frypan, Brenda, and Jorge arrive in a room. They go down the stairs leading down into a makeshift den complete with bookshelves, framed art, and an indoor garden. Gally reaches the bottom first. As Thomas, Newt, Frypan, Brenda, and Jorge reach the bottom, Gally puts down his mask and submachine gun on a table and goes to Lawrence. As Newt, Frypan, Brenda, and Jorge look around the room, Thomas follows Gally to Lawrence.]

Lawrence

Gally– glad to see you made it back. Jasper told me what happened.

Gally

It was a slaughter. There's nothing we could do against those guns.

Lawrence

No– but they can only poke the hornet's nest so long before they get stung. [Smells a rose] Now, who are these people? Why are they here?

Thomas

We need to get into WCKD. Gally said you can get us through the walls.

Lawrence

Gally should know better than to make promises that he can't keep. Besides, that wall is only half your problem. [Takes his IV stand and drags it to his left side] Getting inside WCKD is impossible.

Gally

There might be a way now– but it doesn't work without Thomas.

Lawrence

Is that so? [Approaches Thomas] [To Thomas] Do you know what I am– Thomas? I am a businessman– which means that I don't– take– unnecessary risks. Why should I trust you?

Thomas

Because I can help you. You see, if you can get through those walls– I'll get you what you need.

Lawrence

And what is it– that you think I need?

Thomas

Time. Every last drop.

Lawrence

Is that what I need?

Thomas

WCKD has something we both want.

Lawrence

I'll tell you what. Two can go for now. The rest stay down here with me. Just a little insurance to make sure you find your way back. We have a deal? [Holds out his hand]

Lawrence

Gally, show him the way.

Thomas

Don't stop.
[Thomas and Teresa walk through security scanners, which blink from red to green. As they make their way through the lobby, they walk past two WCKD soldiers. Thomas and Teresa come face to face with Newt, also wearing a WCKD soldier uniform and helmet and holding a Launcher. Newt has entered the lobby of the WCKD tower before Thomas and Teresa entered. Newt jerks his head for them to follow him and walks ahead. Thomas and Teresa gaze at each other before following Newt. They make their way down a staircase and into a corridor with a glass wall running along a parking garage. As Thomas, Teresa, and Newt make their way through the corridor, Gally, also wearing a WCKD soldier uniform and helmet and holding a Launcher and having entered the WCKD tower through a parking garage, walks alongside Thomas, Teresa, and Newt through the other side. He surges ahead to enter through a doorway to the corridor and smoothly cuts in front of Thomas, Teresa, and Newt. While leading the way, Gally briefly glances back at Thomas, Teresa, and Newt. Thomas, Teresa, Newt, and Gally arrive at a security door. Teresa uses her thumbprint ID to open the door and she, Thomas, Newt, and Gally walk into a stairwell.]

Thomas

Go, go, go.

Gally

Hold on, hold on. [Feels the third electrical box] I can get in here. [Lifts up his helmet]

Thomas

Stay there. [To Gally] Throw me the walkie. [Gally tosses him a walkie-talkie. He catches it]
[Teresa sits down on a step and Newt leans over the stairwell railing. As Thomas goes down the stairwell. Newt lifts up his helmet and starts coughing, with Teresa watching on. Newt notices and turns away from Teresa. As Gally starts cutting open the electrical box door using a handheld circular saw, Thomas walks back up the stairwell and makes his way over to the door he, Teresa, Newt, and Gally just entered.]

Thomas

Frypan, we're in. How you doing?

Frypan

Yeah. Yeah, I'm getting there. Tell Minho "Hi," for me.

Thomas

Hang in there, buddy.

Gally

This'll work.

Thomas

Brenda, what's your status?

Brenda

Status is, I'm working on it.

Thomas

Copy. Just make sure you're ready on your end.

Brenda

Don't worry. You know I'm gonna be there. [Runs to a bus once the two WCKD soldiers outside leave]

Gally

All right, let's go. [Closes the electrical box door]
[Lawrence's hideout: Lawrence's crew get a signal from Gally on a computer screen.] Member of Lawrence's crew: [To Lawrence] We got a signal.

Gally did it. We're in.

Lawrence

Good. Give me everything. I want full control.
