Only we could still get shot and killed like Eva starve to death... Or drown. I've often wondered why we didn't just turn on him. We were stronger, faster. Any one of us could have snapped his neck before he knew what hit him, but we were too scared and he knew it.

  Max Guevara : [Snaps out it, and becomes nervous]  No! Not a thing.

• Max Guevara : You're not even trying

• Max Guevara : Go for Max.

  Joshua : Little fella. Little fella, everything's gone sideways. It's - It's FUBAR. There be people screaming. And - And Gem is trying to keep her legs crossed so the baby won't pop out.
