A scene from The French Connection 1971
Alain Charnier
[on the flight from Washington back to New York, Charnier and Nicoli sit in the rear seating area, speaking to each other in their native French]

Our American friends are becoming overcautious.

Pierre Nicoli

What about our timetable?

Alain Charnier

We must follow it.

Pierre Nicoli

But will they?

Alain Charnier

I don't know. Boca's scared. He sees policemen in his soup.

Pierre Nicoli

He's not wrong.

Alain Charnier

The one who followed me on the subway, he's our biggest problem.

Pierre Nicoli

Let me handle him.

Alain Charnier

There'll be others.

Pierre Nicoli

So what? By Friday we'll be gone.
