Global Meltdown (2017 TV Movie)

Michael Paré: Amos Cade

Quotes 

• Mayor Wally : What about the rest of the world? Have you heard about anything from Europe or Asia?

  Vince Isaacs : Total blackout. It's exactly what they want, everyone in the dark.

  Erin : Who exactly are "they"?

  Vince Isaacs : Them! The royal "they". The Illuminati. The New World Order. Puppet masters that control everyone. CIA, DARPA, the Kremlin.

  Erin : And what exactly do they do?

  Vince Isaacs : Area 51. MK Ultra. GM crop manipulation. Weather control. Mind control! You think that's fluoride in the water?

  Sutton : And the damn chem-trails, pumping chemicals in the atmosphere, making us all impotent.

  Amos Cade : [chuckles]  Maybe they're making you impotent, Sutton, but my gear works just fine.

• Amos Cade : [to a group of marauders]  Maybe we can help each other. You got something I want, I got something you want. You tell me what happened to the folks in that truck, and I'll serve you dinner.

  Vince Isaacs : What?

  Amos Cade : [shoots Vince]  Dinner's served.

• Amos Cade : This isn't something you can win, Karen. It's not a negotiation. There's nothing you can offer me that I couldn't just take from you.

  Karen Cavanaugh : And what is it that you want, Cade?

  Amos Cade : I want my radio back. You know, if it wasn't for you, I'd be safe and sound with all the comforts at home right now.

  Karen Cavanaugh : If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead in a hole in the ground where Pleasant Creek used to be!

  Amos Cade : Don't bet on it. I'll tell you one thing, I wouldn't be out there in the middle of nowhere with nothing to eat!

  Karen Cavanaugh : If you're mad at me, take it out on me! Let the girl go!

  Amos Cade : It's not gonna happen. You took everything from me. And now I'm taking everything from you, and I do mean everything.

  Karen Cavanaugh : You know you were wrong, Cade.

  Amos Cade : Wrong about what, Karen?

  Karen Cavanaugh : Being a leader isn't about who's willing to take it the furthest or choosing the right path. It's about how far is too far, and knowing when to stop.

  Amos Cade : I'll write that in the marker we leave over your bones after we lick them clean.

• Karen Cavanaugh : Amos.

  Amos Cade : Doc.

  Karen Cavanaugh : I'm really glad to have somebody like you on our team.

  Amos Cade : We're not on the same team. We're just travelling in the same direction.
