Doctor Hall: All right. Gun?
James Bond: Shot.
Doctor Hall: Agent.
James Bond: Provocateur.
Doctor Hall: Woman?
James Bond: Provocatrix.
Doctor Hall: Heart?
James Bond: Target.
Doctor Hall: Bird?

[at Q Branch, Q and Tanner try to create a false trail to lure Silva]
Q: It's a fine line. Make the breadcrumb too small, and he might miss it. Too big, and Silva will smell a rat.
Bill Tanner: Yes, but you'd think even Silva will be able to spot that.
Q: He's the only one who could.
[Tanner turns to see Mallory, his arm in a sling]
Tanner: Sir?
Q: Oh...
Gareth Mallory: What are you doing?
Q: We're just... monitoring.
Mallory: Creating a false tracking signal for Silva to follow.
Tanner: Well, sir, um...
Q: Well, no...
Mallory: Excellent thinking. Get him isolated. Send him on the A9, it's a direct route. You can monitor his progress more accurately and confirm it with the traffic cameras.
Tanner: But, uh... what if the PM finds out?
Mallory: Then we're all buggered. Carry on.
