- Quotes
Sam: You warned us. At the memorial service. You said death didn't like to be cheated.
William Bludworth: It's just that I've seen this before.
Nathan: You've seen what?
William Bludworth: A lucky few survive a disaster. And then one by one... death comes for them all. You changed things on that bridge. There's a wrinkle in reality. And that wrinkle is you.
Nathan: So what, we're doomed to die? I mean is - is that it? We just got our lives back, so what kind of fucked up karma's that?
Sam: Are you saying we can't stop this?
William Bludworth: You were supposed to die on that bridge. You're not supposed to be here. You shorted death. So you let death have somebody else in your place, and you take their spot in the realm of the living. All the days and years that they have yet to live. And they take *your* place in death. Then the books are balanced.
Peter Friedkin: Wait a minute. We kill someone, we get their life? Is that what you're telling me?
William Bludworth: I don't make the rules. I just clean up... after the game is over.

The premonition of a deadly bridge saves his life and a lucky few , but not from death itself which seeks out those who escaped their fate .
