Quotes

James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Junior! What the hell have you done?
James 'Junior' Rennie : I'm just doing what I have to do in order to move on.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : What?
James 'Junior' Rennie : Christine was right. I needed to finish what I started.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Christine? Let me tell you something. She's not who you think she is. Those cocoons. I think she's responsible.
James 'Junior' Rennie : I should thank her. I've never been happier.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : This makes you happy?
James 'Junior' Rennie : I don't feel it. It's gone.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : What's gone?

James 'Junior' Rennie : I-I don't know how I'm back here.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : You were in some kind of a-a, a-a cocoon, and-and... you never went anywhere.
James 'Junior' Rennie : I did. I moved on. I got rid of you. This time has to be different, Dad. I want to forgive you.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : For what?
James 'Junior' Rennie : All of it. Locking me up in that bomb shelter, alone, in the dark. Leaving me up in that tree, forcing me to go get the belt.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : [slaps him] I saved you. You should be thanking me. You were a weak little kid. I just tried to make you strong.
James 'Junior' Rennie : I was stronger without you.
James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Where? In your little make-believe cocoon world? You're still weak. You're pathetic and afraid. You can punch that dome as many times as you need to, Junior. You're back under it.

Sam Verdreaux : Hey. What's so bad that you gotta end it all? Come on. Tell me.
James 'Junior' Rennie : The life we had, in the cocoons? I saw the world. I... I knew what it was like to be my own man, to be free from my father, and I can't be under this dome with him. I'd rather be dead.
Sam Verdreaux : Congratulations, kid.
James 'Junior' Rennie : For what?
Sam Verdreaux : Hitting bottom.You gotta get here before you're ready to change. Whatever you found in that other life can help you here.

Christine Price : It's good to see you again, James.
James 'Junior' Rennie : We never really met.
Christine Price : How you doing?
James 'Junior' Rennie : I'm okay.
Christine Price : Now, how about the truth?
James 'Junior' Rennie : The truth? I don't know how I'm gonna survive here. In that other world, I killed my father, I was ready to burn down his house. That was the life that I wanted - to be free from him. But... I'm here.
Christine Price : You were about to make a breakthrough. If you really want to be who you were... finish what you started. Drop the match. We are what we do.
