A scene from Volcano 1997
Woman

Emmit, FAA’s on the line. They want an update.

Emmit

Where are we with the airports?

Marty

We shut down all outgoing. Everything incoming is being re-routed to Ontario.

Emmit

No, no, no, no. Marty, no... Look at that screen! That cloud is blowing due east. We gotta send everything to San Diego.

Man

Emmit, they got two gas lines burning on Fairfax. They can't get any hydrant pressure.

Emmit

Swimming pools.

Man

What about them?

Emmit

Pump out all the swimming pools. That's a thousand gallons a pop. That's all the water we need.

Man

Emmit, we just got a call from La Brea. There's total gridlock from Pico to Sunset.

Emmit

Didn't we send over all those damn traffic cops?

Man

That's who's calling; they're stuck at Olympic. Cars keep stalling out because of all the ash. It's clogging up the air filters.

Emmit

Chevettes, right?
