"[to Wilson] Do you have to keep bringing that up, can't you just forget it? Huh? You were right. You were right, it was a good thing we did a test, 'cause it wasn't going to be just a quick snap. I would have landed on the rocks. Broken my leg, or my back or my neck, bled to death, but it was the only option I had at the time though, okay? It was what, a year ago? So let's just forget it. And what is your point? Well... we might just make it. Did that thought ever cross your brain? Well, regardless, I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, than to stay here and die on this shithole island spending the rest of my life talking TO A GODDAMN VOLLEYBALL!"
