Charlie, there are two kinds of thieves in this world: the ones who steal to enrich their lives, and the ones who steal to define their lives. Don't be the latter. Makes you miss out on what's really important in this life.
CC Charlie Croker
What are you talking about, John? You've been a good father.
Sending presents doesn't make you a good father. I spent half my kid's life in prison. Don't get to be my age with nothing but this, Charlie. Find somebody you want to spend the rest of your life with and hold onto her forever. Okay?
You want all greens? 'Cause, ah, 'cause you got 'em. [chuckles]
CC Charlie Croker
What have you got?
Welcome to LA's Automated Traffic Surveillance and Control Operations Center. See, they use video feeds from intersections and specifically designed algorithms to predict traffic conditions, and thereby control traffic lights. So all I did was come up with my own... kick-ass algorithm to sneak in, and now we own the place.
C Croker
You want to do a dry run?
[singsong]
I thought you'd never ask! [turns to his computer, showing a camera] See, red light. [presses button to turn all lights on an intersection green] Green light. [Cars start moving from each direction, causing one vehicle to get T-boned by a car on each side]
M Mashkov
I am Mashkov. And you killed my cousin Yehven.
CC Charlie Croker
Gotta have some insurance, Steve.
Look, Yehven was already dead when I got there. I'm sorry about that, but he dealt with some pretty unsavory types. This guy's trying to play you.
M Mashkov
[to Charlie]
You were right... No imagination.
