Check out this place. It's a casino the size of a planet. You can lose your money there. You can get married. You can get divorced. You can... You can go in there. People come to the OASIS for all the things they can do, but they stay because of all the things they can be.

AECH: Z, I can't believe you told her about Kira. WADE: What? I told you. Hey, what about this? No. Have you considered that Art3mis could be using you? Hey, dude, she's giving me a clue. Maybe I'm the one using her. Should I go more Thriller? No.

Of course I am. Because the first thing that I would do is convert all the schools on Ludus to replicas from The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller. No way. That's a great idea. Which school, Ridgemont or Faber? Fast Times at Ridgemont High, not John Hughes. It's a trap. Faber College from Animal House. John Hughes didn't direct Fast Times at Ridgemont High or Animal House. Ferris Bueller and The Breakfast Club, they went to Shermer High School, which is in Shermer, Illinois. I know what you think. You think I'm a corporate asshole, that I don't appreciate pop culture, but... Man, that's not true. You know, when I wanna blow off steam... Drink Tab, plRobotron, listen to Duran Duran. I crack open a Tab. I put on some Duran Duran. I play Robotron. That's why I love the OASIS. 'Cause it's just full of all these things, man, that people love. You know?

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 much more than just your avatars or your weapons. Some have lost their freedom. Some have lost their lives.

-Where's the juice? -(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) -Give me some juice! -(BOTH CHUCKLE) -There is no juice! -Oh, God! Hold the phone. Halliday went on a date with Ogden Morrow's wife? Just once, years before they were even married, but yeah. And despite that, and the fact that she died, the name "Kira" is only mentioned once in all of Halliday's Journals. CURATOR: That's not possible. It is. Look it up. What we just saw is the only time she's ever mentioned. It makes no sense. She was an important part of both their lives. I'll bet you anything. All my coin.
