[Larry objects to leaving Stu behind.]
This is no game, Stu.
Stu's right, Larry. Mother Abagail said one of us would fall by the way.
W-what does that mean? Huh? What are you saying? You're a college professor, for god sakes!
Not anymore. In case you hadn't noticed, Larry, school is out.
Look, I thought he was your friend!
Of course he's my friend. But that doesn't matter now.
It's God's plan—
Shut up about God! I'm sick of hearing about God!
This whole trip was based on the idea that Mother Abagail knew what she was talkin' about.
That's right.
It's not right. It's not right! This isn't God's will, or God's plan! It's a washout! And you got a broken leg, Stu, and I'm not gonna leave you here!
. . .
When we came on this trip, we put our lives in the hands of Mother Abagail's God. Now, that hasn't changed. If he wants me to eat, he'll send food. If he wants me to drink… he'll send rain. It's his business. Yours… is to go against Flagg! Now, you've got to do that, and you've got to go without me!
[choking back tears] Man… do you know how crazy that sounds? Do you know how totally damn crazy that sounds?!
