Dewey : I had to leave the cab to throw a switch.
Connie : You left the cab?
Dewey : Yeah.
Gilleece : And, um, it gets worse. Uh... the air brakes weren't tied on. They aren't tied on, still.
Connie : We've got an unmanned train rolling into opposing traffic with no air brakes, is that what you're telling me?
Dewey : I set the independent brakes. That'll for sure stop it.
Connie : How fast is it going?
Gilleece : No more than ten miles per.
Connie : Okay, jump on the hi-rail and go after it. Now!
Gilleece : Okay.
[leaving with Dewey]
Gilleece : Ballbuster.

Connie : I need you to rally every cell in that brain of yours. When you applied the independent, was the throttle in the forward position?
Dewey : Yeah, I had to get it moving, Connie!
Connie : In what position was the throttle set?
[Dewey is reluctant to say]
Connie : Damn it, Dewey, what position?
Dewey : Connie, the throttle was in notch 8, full power. Okay? It was 39 cars!

Gilleece : What's wrong?
Dewey : Damn trailing point switch. The track's aligned for D-16.
Gilleece : What's your stopping distance?
Dewey : At least 20 cars to a stop. Damn it!
Gilleece : Okay, so we back it up and lose a little time.
Dewey : I'm hopping out.
Gilleece : Do not get out of that cab, man!
Dewey : Don't worry, I'll set the independent.
Gilleece : Dewey! Dewey!
[Dewey gets out]
Gilleece : Come on, get back on. Dewey! You better get back on.
Dewey : I'm on it. I'm on it.
[the throttle switch falls from idle to full power]
Dewey : [seeing the train speed up] Shit!
Gilleece : You better get back on, dickhead.
