Thaddeus Bradley quotes from Now You See Me (2013)

Morgan Freeman
A line from Thaddeus Bradley

There is a legend of a secret order born in ancient Egypt called "the Eye". It is said that they perfected sleight of hand to steal food from the Pharaohs and give it to the slaves. Their purpose: using magic and illusion to even the scales of justice. Are the Horsemen the next in a long line of fools to believe this myth? Will they evade the rules of law and logic like they did in Las Vegas? Or will the dark mysticism of this Southern swampland get the better of them?

Whatever this grand trick is, it was designed a long time ago, and I believe that what's about to follow, is really going to amaze. So I suggest you sit back and enjoy your front row seat. You paid quite a lot of good money for it.

Thaddeus Bradley

Want to know how they did it? Just say the magic word.

What is your role with them?

Thaddeus Bradley

Role?

This is a magic trick, Mr Tressler. Played out on a global scale. You, sir, are the "abracadabra", the distraction, while they set up the real trick.

Arthur Tressler

I was a $140 million distraction?

Thaddeus Bradley

Yes. And that very ego, which got you involved with them in the first place, is what keeps you from seeing that.

Arthur Tressler

You know-

Thaddeus Bradley

"I can destroy you", yes, I know. Well, you won't. And you won't destroy them. Whatever this grand trick is, it was designed a long time ago, and I believe that what's about to follow, is really going to amaze. So I suggest you sit back and enjoy your front row seat. You paid quite a lot of good money for it.

Arthur Tressler

Whatever you stand to make...I'll double it, if you expose them now, and destroy them.

Thaddeus Bradley

I stand to make five million.

Arthur Tressler

Am I flinching?

Thaddeus Bradley

No, you're not.
