Hud: It's a terrible thing.
[while trying to get to a flight of stairs, Rob encounters a parasite and kills it]

Hud: I don't know! Something else! Also terrible.

Hud: Ocean is big, dude. All I'm saying is a couple of years ago, they found a fish in Madagascar that they thought been extinct for centuries.
Rob Hawkins: So what? It's been down there this whole time, and nobody noticed?
Hud: Sure. Maybe it erupted from an ocean trench, you know? Or a crevasse. Crevice. It's just a theory. I mean,

for all we know, it's from another planet and it flew here.
Marlena Diamond: Like Superman?
Hud: Yeah, exactly like... Wait. You know who Superman is?
Marlena Diamond: Oh, my God. You know who Superman is?
Hud: Okay, I'm not...
Marlena Diamond: [sarcastically] I'm, like, feeling

something. Are you aware of Garfield.

Hud: Straight up!

Hud: Do you guys remember a couple of years ago when that guy was lighting homeless people on fire in the subways?
Rob Hawkins: Jesus, Hud! Maybe not the best time for this conversation down here!
Hud: Right.
[awkward silent pause]
Hud: I just can't stop thinking how scary it'd be if a flaming homeless

guy came running...
Rob HawkinsLily FordMarlena Diamond: HUD!
Hud: I'm just saying. Sorry.

Rob Hawkins: My name is Robert Hawkins. It's 6:42 AM on Saturday, May 23rd. Approximately seven hours ago, some... thing attacked the city. I don't know what it is. If you found this tape, I mean if you're watching this right now, then you probably know more about it than I do. Whatever it is, it killed my brother Jason Hawkins, it killed my best friend Hudson Platt and Marlena

Diamond, and many many others. We've crashed into Central Park and we've taken shelter underneath this bridge. The military has begun bombing the creature and we're caught in the middle. Okay, ready?
[Rob turns camera to Beth]
Rob Hawkins: It's okay.
Beth McIntyre: I don't know what to say.
Rob Hawkins: Just tell them

who you are.
Beth McIntyre: My name is Elizbeth McIntyre. I don't know why this is happening. And we're going to wait here until this passes.

Hud: One of them grabbed me, tried to drag me away. What's up with that?
Marlena Diamond: Maybe it liked you, Hud.

Rob Hawkins: Listen, we need your help. Our friend, she's hurt, she's trapped in her building right by here. Columbus Circle?
Lead Soldier: That is not where you want to be right now.
Lily Ford: Do you guys know what it is, out there? Do you know what that thing is?
Lead Soldier: There ain't nobody telling me.

Whatever it is, it's winning.

Hud: Are you okay?
Marlena Diamond: You tell me. How does it look?
[Hud sees Marlena's bloody back shoulder]
Hud: It looks like it hurts.
Marlena Diamond: What do you mean? Are you saying this isn't attractive at all?
Hud: A little bit.

Hud: Okay, just to be clear here, our options are: die here, die in the tunnels, or die in the streets. That pretty much it?
Rob Hawkins: Yeah... that's pretty much it.

Rob Hawkins: Still filming?
Hud: Yeah, people are gonna want to know... how it all went down.
Rob Hawkins: Well, you can just tell them how it all went down, Hud.
Hud: No, that wouldn't work. People need to see this, you know? It's gonna be important. People are going to watch this.

Hud: [during a very stressful run up stairs] I don't read the papers. Maybe our government made this thing.
Rob Hawkins: Oh, yeah.
Hud: I mean, you know, maybe it was an accident, or maybe it was on purpose.
Rob Hawkins: Sure, maybe they did. Does it really matter right now?
Hud: Yeah.

It matters because I need to talk about something. Otherwise, I'm actually probably going to shit my pants in this stairwell.

Marlena Diamond: What would make you think that I'm the kind of person that wouldn't do that?

Marlena Diamond: [chuckles] Yeah.

Hud: Yeah?
[chuckles]
Hud: Alright, you just got bit.
