Tucker : That's weak. What if there's nothing you're afraid of? The room wouldn't work.
Frank : That's right; nothing scares you, does it? Maybe you should be the first to, uh, reach into the unknown.
[holds out the box, Tucker stands]
Tucker : What's in it?
Frank : What's the difference? You're not scared of anything anyway.
Tucker : [looks at the others] ... Yeah, that's right.

Tucker : Forget it!
[leaves]
