He's alone, he's tired, he hasn't seen diddly squat from anyone down here... and you're going to stand there and tell me that he's going to give a damn about what you do to him, if he makes it out of there alive?

View Quote Hans: I thought I told all of you, I want radio silence until further...
John: Ooooh, I'm very sorry Hans. I didn't get that memo. Maybe you should've put it on the bulletin board. I figured since I've waxed Tony and Marco and his friend here, I figured you and Karl and Franco might be a little lonely, so I decided to give you a call.
Hans: Eh, that's... very kind of you, considering you are a mysterious party crasher. You are most troublesome, for a security guard.

Hans: Do you really think you have a chance against us, Mister Cowboy?
John: Yippee-ki-yay, mother****er.
View Quote Dwayne: We don't know shit, Powell. If there's hostages in there, how come no-one's come to us with ransom demands? If there's terrorists in there, where's their list of demands? All we know is that whoever shot your car up is probably the same silly son-of-a-bitch you've been talking to on that radio.
Al: Excuse me, sir! But what about the body that fell out the window?
Dwayne: Well who knows? Maybe some stockbroker — got depressed...
View Quote Al: In fact, I think he's a cop. Maybe not LAPD, but he's definitely a badge.
Dwayne: How do you know that?
Al: A hunch, things he said. Like being able to spot a phony ID.
Dwayne: Jesus Christ, Powell, he could be a ****ing bartender for all we know.
