[Tyler meets Dee and Rome at the pick-up spot]
Rome Hernandez : [Rome slams on the breaks of his car] See that shit! Stops on a dime! Dee, how much did this thing cost?
Dee Dee Davenport : Uh, Daddy said the IRS paid for it.
Rome Hernandez : Since it was so cheap I asked her old man to buy me one, too. 'Only if you drive it to Mexico,' he says. 'And stay there!'
Rome Hernandez : [Rome looks to Tyler] Do I look Mexican to you?
Tyler : [Tyler looks around not knowing what to say] Yeah.

[the kids arrive at the Campgrounds Lodge]
Rome Hernandez : This is it. This place looks worse than the projects.
Dee Dee Davenport : Definitely not cable-ready.
Melissa Danson : Wait till you check out the toilette, princess.
Rome Hernandez : Do we got to actually sleep in this dump?
Panic : Give me a dark alley over this place, anytime. This place ain't right, man. It's too quiet. It's too goddamn quiet.

[Charles Danson records into his tape recorder the different experiences of each kid at the lodge]
Charles Danson : 7-18-93. We have just arrived at the campsite. My partner Holly having made this trip several times prior, is the only person in our group possessing any real outdoor survivalist skills. The rest of us bring only our every-man-for-himself instinct fostered by urban living. As I expected, the subjects' first reaction was one of disassociation.
Charles Danson : [Rome is shown lifting a tree log for a weight] There's Rome and Dee Dee, hastily converting this new environment into their own, and both returning to what is no doubt habitual behavior.
Dee Dee Davenport : [Dee Dee tries to get her portable radio to work as she looks up at the mountains] Shit.
Charles Danson : [Panic throws an ax into the campground sign] And then, there's Panic. A perfect model of aggressive dysfunction. He cannot accept this radical change so instead, assaults it.
Charles Danson : [Kelly sits on a tire swing] And poor Kelly, a prisoner of her own troubled mind. In the end, I fear this group will not successfully bond, despite their common antagonist. In this case, nature.

[Mrs. Lambert tries to ask Rome and Dee to go out fishing]
Rome Hernandez : What are you trying to get rid of us?
Holly Lambert : No. I just think it's time you guys had fun together.
Rome Hernandez : Hey. I'm having too much fun already.
Holly Lambert : [Rome chuckles at Mrs. Lambert] Dee, what about you?
Dee Dee Davenport : [Dee lays on her back tanning] Oh, I got to stay in the shade. You know, that ozone thing.
