Mike Roark

[Mike Roark has just overseen the flipping of a bus to at least stem the lava approaching down Wilshire]

All right we know that stuff is lava. What do we do next?

Amy Barnes

You have got to evacuate the West Side. This thing is going to burn through the city until it reaches the ocean.

Roark

The West Side, it's a million people!

Barnes

There will be a million dead or homeless people if we don't evacuate! This is going to destroy everything it touches!

Mike Roark I enjoy motor sports, music and the company of close friends…sir. Mike Roark Oh, that'll be my little girl wanting a tattoo. Mike Roark We're going to put as many people in front of it as it takes. Listen up, people! Let me tell you what's south of us: no more museums, no more department stores, just homes! People! If we turn and run now, they're going to be defenseless! You don't like my plan? That's good. Give me another plan, but don't tell me we're backing out!
