There is no one looking out for us. We are all alone.

Taken at face value, the line expresses a stark, existential conviction: that no protective authority—divine, governmental, familial, or otherwise—will intervene on our behalf. In Shyamalan’s artistic orbit, such a sentiment often functions as a pressure point for fear and moral testing: when characters believe they are unobserved and unrescued, they must decide whether to collapse into panic, invent consoling myths, or assume responsibility for their own survival and ethics. The quote’s bluntness also suggests a critique of comforting narratives (providence, destiny, “someone in charge”) and a call—grim but clarifying—to self-reliance and mutual care, since “we” are all that remains.
