Ready Player One

Rick: I zeroed out 'cause of your broke-ass gloves! Wade: Who told you to use them? Rick: You took HERS! Wade: So you lost a death match, why don't you just respawn and level up like everyone else? Rick: You don't get it! I bought all of these power-ups and I lost it all. That artifact was gonna pay FOR THE HOUSE! Alice: [comes out; to Rick] Wait! How much of our house money did you spend on upgrades? Rick: Well, all of it, but I was gonna win. Alice: That was our ticket out of here! You idiot! Rick: No, but I only lost because of the bad gloves! Alice: OUR HOUSE! OUR GODDAMN HOUSE! Wade: [To Rick] My boys were in that challenge, you couldn't've beat them in a bootsuit, you noob. [Rick turns to Wade, grits his teeth and punches Wade] Alice: STOP! NO, NO! Wade: Alice, call the police! Alice: No, we are not calling the cops! Go to your room, Rick! [Alice pushes Rick to his room] Rick: Come on, Alice. Wade: [About Rick] Why do you put up with this guy? He's a shit-show. Alice: [To Wade] I

IOI Staff Member #1: Who is this Parzival and how the hell is he winning? Nolan Sorrento: Here's a better question: who cares?

Parzival: Wow, you were amazing! Art3mis: This isn't a game, Z. I'm doing this to stop IOI. I'm talking about real-world consequences. People suffering. Actual life and death stuff. Parzival: I know, I know. Art3mis: No, you don't know! My dad died at loyalty center. He borrowed gear. He built up debt. He moved in with the promise of working out, but he never did. IOI just raised his living expenses, then he got sick and he couldn't afford to get out and then he died!

Wade Watts: Where is she? Nolan Sorrento: How did you get in here? Wade Watts: Art3mis. Nolan Sorrento: Who? Wade Watts: Samantha Cook! Where is she?! Nolan Sorrento: If you want to talk, we can talk, but you gotta put that gun down. Wade Watts: You killed my mom's sister. You think I won't kill you? Nolan Sorrento: Whoa, whoa, whoa, just slow down, okay? That was a corporate decision. It was not personal. Wade Watts: WHERE IS SHE?!? Nolan Sorrento: She's downstairs, in the Loyalty Center! Wade Watts: I know she's in the goddamn Loyalty Center! [advances on Sorrento] You're gonna tell me exactly which rig she's in, and the access code to contact her. Nolan Sorrento: Yeah, that seems appropriate. Toshiro: Start with the access code. Nolan Sorrento: 645-725. Toshiro: Where's the rig? Wade Watts: I think he pissed himself. Aech: Good job, Z. We're in his account. Sho: So he really doesn't know he's in the Oasis? Wade Watts: [shows a screen to Sho] This is what Sorrento should be seeing. [

Wade Watts: Citizens of the Oasis, I am Parzival, first to the key. I'm here talking to all of you now because our future's being threatened, by people who will stop at nothing to win this contest. Some of you already know this, and you've lost more than just your avatars, or your weapons. Some have lost their freedom. Some have lost their lives. And now, this. A force field around the third challenge. I only came here to escape the shitty hand that life dealt me. But I stayed, like many of you, because I found something much bigger than just myself. I found a cause. I found my friends. And, yes, I know it's kind of a groaner, but...I found love. Wade Watts: And I don't want to lose that to this colossal douchebag Nolan Sorrento! Nolan Sorrento: This guy. [laughs] Back to work, people. [signals to cut the screen as the Sixers move away] Wade Watts: He thinks that we're all too distracted to even notice- Wade Watts: Nolan Sorrento thinks that we won't put up a fight!
