“I am Wilhemina Venable.  Welcome to the outpost three.  It is now.  for many years, it served as an exclusive boys’ school.  The Cooperative, to whom we owe our eternal gratitude, took ownership and converted it once they realized what was coming.  No.  The beginning.  The Cooperative has plans far beyond the temporary cleansing fire of the bomb.  The Cooperative is not made up of nations or armies.  It’s a collection of the dozen greatest minds mankind has to offer.  The visionaries.  It may be seem to you a regression, Mr. Campbell, our way of life here, but you’d be dead wrong.  Technology is what destroyed the world.  Social media gave people the illusion they were equal.  Now that’s all been swept away.  The natural order will restore itself.  I’ll show you to your rooms.  As Purples, you will each be furnished with a private suite.  The elite.  The worthy.  Those chosen to survive.  In The Outpost, everyone knows their place.  The Purples wear Purple, the Grays, gray.  Grays are our worker ants.  Still a necessary component of any functioning society.  The Grays are here to serve.  And grateful for the opportunity.  The alternative being nuclear winter, cancer, death.  I am neither.  Rather, I am the strong right arm of The Cooperative.  Think of me as their face.  The house rules are simple.  You will refer to me only as ‘Ms. Venable.’  You may never leave the building.  If you wander out onto the grounds, you will not be allowed back in due to the danger of radiation contamination.  You will take your chances with the canker pus monsters beyond the gate.  And no unauthorized copulation of any kind, under any circumstances, no exceptions.  Ask the two Grays you saw on the way in if it’s a joke.  You’ll find the evening wear on the left side of the armoire.  We dress for dinner.  Cocktails in the music room at 6:30.  Be prompt.  There’s no excuse for tardiness when there’s nothing else to do.” — Wilhemina Venable

“Dinner is served.  I’m going to be very clear so there will be no misunderstanding.  We have enough nutrition for the next 18 months.  And if our situation doesn’t improve, you can count on less and less.  We had a perimeter alert this morning.  Something penetrated the grounds.  It was a carrier pigeon, delivering a message from our benefactors.  ‘There are no more governments.  Only rotting mounds of corpses, too many to bury.  Starving people kill for a piece of bread.  Three outposts have been overrun.  We are the last vestiges of civilized life on the planet.  Be vigilant.’  We will only survive if we follow the rules.” — Wilhemina Venable

“Yes?  Never more so.  Well?  Ravishing might be too strong a word, but this one certainly becomes you.  Don’t you agree?  We’re the only ones who matter.  How did you manage it?  Stu and the Geiger counter?  It was lovely work.  It’s strangely satisfying, isn’t it?  Dispensing punishment?  I love their faces… that stupid ‘can’t believe this is happening to me’ look they get.  I’m not embarrassed to say, it gives me a tingle.  You’re still uncomfortable with this and that gives me pause.  Forget The Cooperative.  It’s only us.” — Wilhemina Venable

“Nobody’s coming for anyone.  Not unless you break the rules.  This is a difficult time for everyone.  As a small consolation, we have a special treat.  Enjoy the bonne bouche.  Don’t get used to it.  Andre, we’re not trying to bribe anyone, but there is something we all need to understand.  There is no ‘us’ and ‘them.’  We are in this together.  No individual is greater than the group.  We did what we had to do.  This is quite simply a tragedy.  We have resources… for special occasions.  There are lines that can never be crossed.  Not eating people is of the first rank.  For heavens sakes, don’t be ridiculous.” — Wilhemina Venable

“I have an announcement.  This will be our last breakfast.  We’re cutting back to one meal a day.  It’s not optimal, but also not impossible.  Either way, we have no choice.  Not if we want to keep eating at all.” — Wilhemina Venable

“Wilhelmina Venable.  I’m in charge here.  You don’t sound like you believe me.  Considering?  Why are you here?  You’re here to take us there.” — Wilhemina Venable

“And nothing would be more humiliating to a man such as yourself than to learn that a woman had more information than he did.  You… and the others.  Masters of the universe… titans of industry… swinging your dicks around so much that you managed to blow the whole world to hell.” — Wilhemina Venable

“I’m just doing my best with the mess men made of things.” — Wilhemina Venable

“Ah, God.  Ah, shit.  It was contaminated by the fallout.  Everything we know is gone.  It was always fragile.  They made you think the system was a rock.  It was a water balloon.  One prick of the needle and… …that’s all it took.  There’s a problem.  We’ve detected a spike in the background radiation, centered in this room.  Place your hands on the table.  And don’t move.  Radioactive contamination is a grave risk to our entire community.  The clean rule is there to protect all of us.  A single stray gamma particle can cause skin lesions.  Your DNA breaks apart, your body disintegrates.  You’ll wish you died in the blast.  But someone here decided that their individual needs were more important.  Someone went outside.  Touched something dirty.  It makes me sick to think this person was selfish enough to risk contaminating all… she’s clean.  You’re dirty.  Take them… to the decontamination room.  You won’t have to.  Dirty.  You won’t have to.” — Miriam Mead

“It’s me.  Are you decent?  If anyone sees us… easy.  Set the sensitivity to ten, you can make anyone sound like Chernobyl.  And a pleasure.  I wonder what The Cooperative would say about all of this, making up our own rules, terrorizing the guests.  I’m military.  My dad killed so many Viet-Cong he lost count.  Killing is in my DNA.  But I still respect the chain of command.  The cooperative’s paid my bills for a lot of years.  Just hard for me to pretend they’re not my boss anymore.” — Miriam Mead

“Nana, I’ve been trying to call you.  The government sent a warning.  Missiles are coming.  No.  This is real, grandma.  People are going to die today.  Coco!  Coco, wait!  I overheard your dad.  There’s four spots.  Room for all of us.  This is my nana Evie.  He’s not gonna make it.  It’s chaos out there.  Jesus, what happened to your hair?  Okay?  Mwah, mwah.  What?!” — Mr. Gallant

“This song– the same one every night.  Where is it even coming from?  And why do we have to listen to it?  What are we missing here?  Would’ve been better off dying with them.  Wouldn’t have to drink this, whatever this is.  It just plays over and over, 24 hours a day.  Well, well, well.  New blood.  Um, what’s happening out there?” — Mr. Gallant

“It’s all we get.  Don’t be too disappointed.  I want to die.  Situation?  What is our situation?  It’s them; they just came from the outside.  No.  No, no, no, no, no.  That’s a mistake, because the only thing I’ve touched is Coco’s hair.  No.  This is impossible.  That machine is wrong.  Ow!  Evie!  No.  Oh, no.  I’ve never tasted anything like it.  I don’t hear anything.  It’s been the same song for two straight weeks.  Why would they suddenly change it.  don’t you get it?!  It’s a message!  Aah! ♪ Let’s keep on looking for the light ♪ Oh, can’t you… ♪ The Cooperative is trying to tell us something!  They’re saying, ‘hang on.  We’re coming for you.’  Yes, The Cooperative is coming for us.  Halle-fucking-lujah!” — Mr. Gallant

“Maybe it’s time to eat somebody.” — Mr. Gallant

“How are we supposed to survive on half a cube?  I fucking can’t do this anymore!  Finish that bumper sticker shit you used to say on your show, and I’m strong enough to shove this fork in your neck!  She’s right.  We have to get out of here.  What you going to do?!  Shoot us all?  Huh?!  What are you gonna do?” — Mr. Gallant

“Am I the first one to get this cut?  Because I’m working on becoming an Instagram influencer, and I refuse to show my full ass crack, so my hairstyle has to be on point.  That’s my father’s money.  I need to make something of myself.  You did.  You’re the next Chris McMillan.  Are you trying to fucking poison me?  This tastes like turtle shit.  You’re supposed to be my personal assistant, Mallory.  Do you even know me?  Could you just go and get me a macchiato so I can rinse this shit taste out of my mouth?  No.  It’s bullshit.  It’s a hoax.  It’s like that time in Hawaii.  They’re gonna text in, like, a minute with retraction.  Oh.  Hi, daddy.  How’s Hong Kong?  Oh, you know what?  We have a terrible connection.  I’ll call you after I’m done… wait, daddy, you’re scaring me.  What are you talking about?  No!  No, no, no!  Okay.” — Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt

“Speak for yourself, darling.  No, she creeps me out.  Okay, he refused to touch my hair if he was a Gray, and she’s been to the Oscars, and was best friends with Natalie Wood, so fucking get some perspective.  I’m still hungry.  I am so tired of the hunger.  Fuck this bullshit!  With all the thought that went into this place, they don’t have a single bag of Pirate’s Booty in the pantry?  For a hundred million dollars a ticket, I expect goddamn Gordon Ramsay in the kitchen cooking us real food!  Wait.  A pigeon?  Can we eat it?” — Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt

“Well, people do strange things when they’re stuck inside 24/7.  I’ve started masturbating with my off hand.  I’m saying Stu was boring, and using up our food, and that lesions won’t work with my complexion.  Oh, my God.  I think my mouth had an orgasm.  Mallory, come here and stick your finger down my throat.  Mallory…” — Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt

“Or just, like, an arm.” — Coco St. Pierre Vanderbilt

“Look, I can’t get a hold of anyone.  My mom’s going straight to voice mail.  I got to go home, Coco.  Okay.  Jesus Christ.  People are committing suicide to avoid the blast.  Coco!  It’s now or never.  Didn’t your dad tell you?  I’ll find out.  There’s nobody there.” — Mallory

“He was right about the song.  There was a morning after.  It just looked exactly like the previous morning.  We weren’t rescued, and no one ever came.  But nuclear winter came, and it finished off anything the bombs had left alive.  The world got colder, deadlier.  But even in all of this death, something was born.  Like everything in this place, we had to ration one kiss per week, just to be safe.  And though we couldn’t be together in every way that we wanted, it was enough to keep us from dying inside, like everyone else around us.” — Timothy Campbell
