== Quotes == {{Scroll|<br> {{Dialogue|Alex|This is crazy, Ben.|Bennett|Yeah, pirate's life.|Alex|Shit.|attr=[[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]] gets nervous playing pirates against [[Joseph Wilford|Wilford]].}} {{Quote|Damn. Good one.|[[Joseph Wilford|Wilford]] is tricked and trapped by [[Josie Wellstead|Josie]] and [[Andre Layton|Layton]]. }} {{Quote|This is Head Engineer Wilford. Boarding party, stand down. We will not be taking⦠''Snowpiercer'' by force. Stand down. Weapons down... Andre Layton has the train.|[[Joseph Wilford|Wilford]] publicly surrenders.}} {{Quote|Citizens of ''Snowpiercer''... We're back.|[[Andre Layton|Layton]] and his crew triumphantly return.}} {{Dialogue|Ruth|This warm spot, the Horn of Africa, you really believe it can support live?|Layton|Yeah, our future is there, Ruth. I believe it with all my heart.|Ruth|You know the Horn of Africa, the approach is maybe the worst stretch of track on the entire network, and there was war there when the climate crashed?|Layton|Yeah, I remember.|Ruth|The people are tired, Andre. Its been a long six months and your first order is gonna be to steer them right back into more hardship?|Layton|There won't be an order. We'll put it to a vote. We'll show them that democracy has won. We'll choose our path forward together.|Ruth|And you're prepared for the outcome of this vote.|Layton|I'm going to convince them, that it is worth the risk. Snowpiercer's running on duct tape and prayers. This is a real opportunity to get off.|Ruth|It's also a vote on you Andre. Much of the train doesn't support your leadership.|Layton|This isn't just about me. It's what Melanie would have wanted.|attr=[[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]] warns [[Andre Layton|Layton]] about the risk.}} {{Dialogue|Asha|A vote?|Layton|That's right. You'll get a vote today too.|Asha|Politics. You forget about them when you're the last person on Earth. Thank you.|Layton|Don't thank me just yet. There's something I need to ask of you.|Asha|You brought me back to life, Andre. What is it?|attr=[[Andre Layton|Layton]] asking [[Asha]] a big favor.}} {{Dialogue|Layton|My fellow passengers... Today, for the first time since our departure... you will have a say in our destination, and your choice will determine our future. By now, you know that Melanie's sacrifice gave us a map. Proof that there are places on the Earth that are warming. Traveling fast and light, we tested each of them. Sulawesi, Gujarat, Managua, the Atacama. And each one of these let us down. I know that you have suffered badly because of our decision to break the train. But there is one more location on which I ask you to stake your hope: the Horn of Africa. The journey to return there will be fraught with risk and the hardships will continue, but we have someone here who can renew our faith. Someone we had given up on believing in.|Alex|What's he doing?|Layton|But I'll let her tell you.|Bennett|He's bullshitting.|Asha|My name is Asha. I am a survivor. Layton found me out there, outside. Along with trees, green grass... and life. I come from New Eden.|Layton|I'm not asking you to choose between me and Wilford. I am asking you to choose between the train we know and the dream we don't. Thank you all so much for your sacrifices.|attr=[[Andre Layton|Layton]] takes a gamble.}} {{Dialogue|Layton|The story needed a hero and we brought one back.|Ruth|Well, in the wake of that performance, the yeas have it. Almost two-to-one.|Till|What's one more lie?|Layton|The difference is this is the last one we will have to tell.|Ruth|Well, I doubt that. I've started to think this train demands a lie.|Bennett|Yeah, like an imaginary genius in the Engine.|Alex|Or Melanie, saving us with perfect science.|Layton|Or a survivor, to show us the way.|Bennett|So... we press on.|Till|Agreed. What else are we gonna do?|Layton|Josie?|Josie|Well, we better be right.|attr=[[Andre Layton|Layton]], [[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]], [[Bennett Knox|Bennett]], [[Josie Wellstead|Josie]], [[Alexandra Cavill|Alex]] and [[Bess Till|Till]] discusses their next step.}} {{Quote|Fellow passengers, our great endeavor continues. You have spoken, and by majority rule, we are heading for New Eden.|[[Ruth Wardell|Ruth]] announces ''Snowpiercer's'' official new course.}}}}
