format_quote Leonard: Wen, I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to change the channel for a little bit,okay? Andrew: Go fuck yourself, Mister Rogers. edit

format_quote Andrew: How the fuck did you know what she was gonna say? Is this some closed-circuit TV? Did you guys pump this in? Leonard: Maybe the truth is... is that the end was happening long before we got to this cabin. And what we're seeing now isn't the fireworks. It's just the final flickering sparks. edit

format_quote Leonard: The four of us are here to prevent the apocalypse. We - and when I say, "we", I mean everyone in this cabin, can stop it from happening, but only with your help. Ultimately, where the world ends or not is completely up to you three. Andrew: You are having a psychological break of some kind. Leonard: Your family must choose to willingly sacrifice one of the three of you in order to prevent the apocalypse. After you make what I know is an impossible decision, you must then kill the one you choose. If you fail to choose, of if you fail to follow through with the sacrifice, the world will end. You three will live, but the rest of humanity, seven billion plus... will perish. Eric: They're lunatics. Leonard: And you will all live long enough to witness the horror of the end of everything. And you will be left to wander the devastated planet alone. Permanently and cosmically... alone. Andrew: Leonard. We haven't done anything wrong. Leonard: I agree with you. You haven't. You haven't done anything wrong to... to deserve this burden. You're just the family chosen to decide for us in this time. edit

stars  The strangers are each wearing a different colored shirt- Leonard (Dave Bautista) is wearing white, Redmond (Rupert Grint) is wearing red, Sabrina (Nikki Amuka-Bird is wearing yellow and Adriane (Abby Quinn) is wearing blue. Each color represents their portrayal of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: white for Guidance, red for Malice, yellow for Healing and blue for Nurturing. If you look at Andrew's (Ben Aldridge) tee shirt, it has elements of each of those colors; hinting that he would be the one to survive. edit
