A scene from Léon 1994
L?on

You sleep well? (Mathilda nods.) Good. After breakfast you gotta take off.

Mathilda

Where to?

L?on

Not my problem.
Mathilda (setting note in front of L?on): Read it.

L?on

Uh -- (stares blankly at note.)

Mathilda

You don't know how to read.

L?on

I'm learning, but I've had a lot of work lately, so... I'm a little behind. What's it say?

Mathilda

I've decided what I want to do with my life. I wanna be a cleaner.

L?on

You wanna be a cleaner? [sets a pistol on table] Here, take it. It's a goodbye gift. Go clean -- but not with me! I work alone, understand? Alone!

Mathilda

Bonnie and Clyde didn't work alone! Thelma and Louise didn't work alone! And they were the best.
