Ransom Quotes

Det. Jimmy Shaker: [talking on the radio as they are both driving] You a movie fan, Tom? Ever seen that movie, The Time Machine?
Tom Mullen: No.
Det. Jimmy Shaker: It's the land of the future, right? There's only two kinds of people in the world now, the Morlocks and the Eloi.
Tom Mullen: Okay.

Det. Jimmy Shaker: The Eloi, they live above ground... they wear togas, they're all blond, they eat grapes and shit like that. It's like the garden of Eden out there, I mean basically everybody just plays around.
Tom Mullen: How do I get my boy back?
Det. Jimmy Shaker: The Morlocks, they live underground, all right? Big hairy ugly

suckers, like you wouldn't wish on an ape. Down there with all this machinery, they're doing all the labor, they're making sure that the Eloi have enough food and togas...
Tom Mullen: Are you gonna answer me?
Det. Jimmy Shaker: Oh, great deal if you are an Eloi, right? There's only one thing - every once in a while a Morlock comes up to the surface

and snatches an Eloi, takes him down there...
Tom Mullen: All right, I'm done driving until you tell me what I want to know!
Det. Jimmy Shaker: The Morlocks, they don't eat grapes... they're cannibals. They eat Eloi. So when I think of The Time Machine, it kind of reminds me of New York City, you know? See, you're an Eloi. You and all your friends

walking around like zombies with no fucking idea of the shit going on down below. So... does this make me a Morlock? I don't like to think of myself like- I guess it does. And every once in a while, one of you gets snatched.
