Quotes 

• Petra : We live... briefly, yes. Imperfectly? Of course. Stupidly? Sometimes. But we don't mind, because that's the way we're made. And when it's time to die, we don't resist death; we summon it.

• Mr. Zimit : Do you know what apocalypse actually means?

  Petra : Tell me.

  Mr. Zimit : It's from the Greek "apokálypsis", meaning to uncover what you couldn't see before... a way out of the dark.

  Petra : Your sweet talk still needs work.

• Petra : Isn't punctuality the virtue of the lonely?

• [In the third iteration, Petra waives her own eligibility, and now announces who receives the last remaining bunker slot] 

  Petra : Bonnie, get inside.

  Bonnie : I'm a soldier, I know how to knock things down. You're an engineer, you know how to build things up. I'm not worth as much.

  Petra : My logic's fuzzier. In my apocalypse, everybody is worth as much as everybody else.

  Bonnie : I'm not letting you sacrifice yourself to save me.

  Petra : I won't let *you* sacrifice yourself to save me.

  Bonnie : Then we'll both go up in smoke, and you'll have wasted a slot for someone to live.

  [Petra then asks Chips instead of Bonnie for the last bunker slot]
