Palmer: Yes, I'm alive. You failed.
Eph: If I didn't hit you, then who did I hit?
Palmer: You shot an innocent woman.
Eph: Is she alive?
Palmer: She's possibly brain dead.
Eph: I'm sorry for her. But am I sorry that I fired that bullet?
Palmer: Did Abraham Setrakian send you to kill me?
Eph: It was my idea.
Palmer: It's odd that a man as smart as you should follow him. You must know that all this will be settled in a matter of weeks, if not days. The die is cast, we've won. Why do you continue to resist?
Eph: You're not obviously insane. Megalomaniacal certainly. Sociopathic probably.
Palmer: I persist because I understand the salient facts. Civilization is in free fall. Our world is about to change, violently and forever.
Eph: With you selling out the human race, so you can live as one of these monsters.
