Kevin Flynn: The only way to win the game is not to play.
Kevin Flynn: Your old man's about to knock on the sky and listen to the sound.
Kevin Flynn: The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer. What did they look like? Ships, motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see. And then, one day...
7 Year Old Sam Flynn: You went in?
Kevin Flynn: That's right. I got in.
Kevin Flynn: Life has a way of moving you past wants and hopes.
Clu: I'm not your father, Sam. But, I'm very very happy to see you.
Sam Flynn: Dad?
Kevin Flynn: Sam.
Sam Flynn: Long time.
Kevin Flynn: You have no idea.
Chosen answer: He doesn't know Clu is dead. And a little prudence never hurts. Flynn knows Clu and clearly it was entirely possible that Clu was still alive. If they all got back to the portal, it made no difference. If Clu showed up to stop them, Flynn knew what he had to do and needed to make sure that Sam had his disc to get out.
