Breaker
Thousands of miles across and ten stories thick, locating McCullen's base will be like finding a needle in a coalmine.
Breaker
Oh, right - haystack in a coalmine.

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra quotes
Page 1 of 2[handling the old iron mask]
This belongs to an ancestor of mine. He was caught selling arms to both sides. The French forced him to wear it for the rest of his life. They called him Destro, destroyer of nations.
Storm Shadow
So why do you keep it?
So that I never forget the most important rule in dealing arms.
Let me guess: never sell to both sides?
Never get caught selling to both sides. Take the warheads to Paris, have them weaponised, then I want you to test one.
Test one?
We'll let CNN show the world how well they perform.
Storm Shadow
Fear is a great motivator.
I have a target in mind. One the French will never forget. As I have never forgotten what they did to Clan McCullen.
This is Captain Duke Hauser, prepare to be boarded.
Viper Guard
Sir.
Cobra Commander
You are relentless, Duke, I'll give you that much. And what's to stop me from blowing you out of the water?
Self preservation. I'm taking you in, Rex.
Cobra Commander
[laughing evilly]
You and what army?
My army.
[camera pans back to reveal Duke and a lot of reinforcements]
Well, it appears that I've been made official custodian of the warheads. Looks like your mission is complete here, Duke.
[about the Baroness]
When you move then, she's gonna come after you. You know that, right? And with her Intel and toys, she'll find you.
What's your point?
You're going after her first and we want in.
General, it was our team that got wasted out there. We deserve payback.
You don't ask to be part of G.I. Joe. You get asked.
You scouted me four years ago. Now I'm ready. Let's have at it.
Well, I've lost men too, Captain. If you want revenge-
I know her.
Excuse me?
You said knowing's half the battle, right? Well, I know who she is. [gives General Hawk a photo] She was a blonde. Her name is Ana Lewis. I can tell you everything you need to know about her, up until the last four years. After that, obviously, a lot of things have changed.
Heavy Duty
Standing in front of you are Delta-6 Accelerator suits.
What does it accelerate?
Heavy Duty
You. It'll make you run faster, jump higher and hit harder than any of your enemies. Let's suit up.
Bastille Warden
Ooh, we are not going to kill you, McCullen. We're going to make an example of you! So that no man, woman nor child may ever see your treacherous face again, you shall wear this mask for the term of your natural life.
Hey. You all right?
Scarlett
[pained]
I'm fine. I didn't want anyone to see me like this.
Why?
Scarlett
I don't know. All the men we lost, General Hawk wounded, my neck just doesn't seem that important.
You almost lost your life out there. You have a reason to be concerned.
Scarlett
First fight I lost since I was a kid. My father taught me to win.
Look, I don't see how you can teach anybody to win everything every time. I mean, look at you. You're still here, right? You get knocked down, you get back up. Maybe that's what he wanted you to learn. But then again, that would be an emotional response, one that can't be explained or quantified.
Look, I think you and me got off on the wrong foot. See, I'm attracted to you. And you, you're attracted to me. And him, the damn Zen master, he creeps me out. What I'm trying to say is...
Scarlett
We're attracted to each other.
Scarlett
[cuts him off]
That's what you're saying. It's not what I'm saying.
It's not. So, what are you saying?
Scarlett
Attraction is an emotion. Emotions are not based on science. And if you can't quantify or prove that something exists, well, then in my mind, it doesn't.
Okay. I'll get back to you on that one.
Are you ready, Mr. Zartan?
Born ready, doctor. This is going to be the achievement of a lifetime.
Yes, as a master of disguise you have no equal, my friend.
[confident]
Eighteen months of studying my target, learning mannerisms. But the devil is in the details.
One more thing, I'll control my own brain, thank you very much. [takes out a small container containing nanomites, and smashes it] Let's do this.
American politics. Governors, senators, congressmen. No wonder nothing ever gets done.
That's what we're going to fix, Mr. Zartan.
Hello, Mr President. Mr McCullen sends his regards.
President
[shocked]
Oh my goodness. So that's what this is all about.
[after the Doctor encases his head in silver]
I've finally taken my place in the long line of McCullens.
James McCullen is no more. Now you are Destro.
The time has come for the cobra to rise up and reveal himself. [puts a new mask on] You will call me... Commander.
[about the Baroness]
She's gonna come after you. You know that, right? And with her Intel and toys, she'll find you.
