Speed 1994 quotes, page 5

Harry

Okay, we're gonna have to try and bypass the remote current with the battery. Can you find the tripwire for the remote?

Jack

I don't know, I've got a few choices here.

Harry

Black and red?

Jack

And green.

Harry

Okay. All right. Uh, I'm gonna guess he's not gonna go with standard copper for the remote, that'd be too weak. I'd use a fiber alloy. Jack, I'm gonna need you to look at the wire.

Jack

Harry, it's covered.

Harry

Yeah, I know. You're gonna have to cut off the sheath. But don't cut the wire.

Jack

Right. [the bus jolts as it runs over a piece of rubber tire] **** me! Shit! [Jack carefully cuts the sheath off the green wire] Bullseye!

Harry

Great! Okay, I want you to clip on the battery, and then run it to the lead wire.

Jack

Copy. [he clips the battery to the exposed wire, and reaches to connect it to the bomb, which beeps] I can't bypass, it'll fire.

Harry

Oh, shit! It's a collapsible circuit.

Payne

What do, Jack, huh? What do you do? You're so smart, right, Jack? Piece of shit! I'm the guy with a plan, 'cause I'm smarter than you! I'm smarter than you!

Jack

Yeah? Well, I'm taller.

Payne

Be prepared! It's the Boy Scout marching song. What are you gonna do, Jack? I don't think you can shoot her.

Jack

Let her go.

Payne

No, I don't think I'm gonna do that. [to Annie] Fill it. Now. [Annie starts emptying Payne's ransom money into a duffel bag] Well, I think Harry would be very disappointed feeling that we're right back to where we started, huh?

Jack

Let her go. You don't need her. You have the money. Take it and walk. Come on. Just take it and walk. You don't need her. [yelling] COME ON, JUST TAKE YOUR GODDAMN MONEY AND WALK!

Payne

Stay right there! Stay right there. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll let go. Oh, yeah. You still don't get it, do you, Jack, huh? The beauty of it. A bomb is made to explode. That's its meaning. Its purpose. Your life is empty because you spend it trying to stop the bomb from becoming. And for who? For what? Do you know what a bomb is, Jack, that doesn't explode? It is a cheap gold watch, buddy.

Jack

You're crazy! You're **** crazy!

Payne

Oh, no. Poor people are crazy, Jack. I'm eccentric. [to Annie] Get the money. Let's go. Come on! Let's go! Move it! Move it! [to Jack] You stay! Move it! Move it! [shoves Annie towards a service door] In the door! In that door, now! Bye, Jack— Punk! [shuts the door]

Payne

End of the line. This day has been real disappointing, I don't mind saying.

Jack

Why, 'cause you didn't get to kill everyone?

Payne

There will come a time, boy, when you'll wish you'd never met me.

Jack

Mister, I'm already there.

He's just entered the airport.

Norwood

The airport? There's thousands of people there.

That's my boy, Jack. He should be able to circle the runways and buy us some time. The choppers can't fly in there, it's restricted airspace.

He's headed for the end of the field.

Norwood

That must be Bravo Tango, an emergency runway.

Yeah, let's hope it's built. Let's move!

Payne

Hey. Hey, buckaroo. It's not 'cause you're a woman, all right? Hey, it's all right. Looks like we're all alone.

Annie

Look, you won, okay? You beat Jack. You beat everybody. Just throw me off the train. I don't care, okay?

Payne

Okay. This stick, huh, works on a remote. When you explode, that's where they'll come, but that's not where I'll be. I have a different plan. Mess like that, they don't even count body parts. Gives me more time. It's not gonna hurt, Annie.

Howard Payne

Hey, Jack! Is that you? He's so persistent, he always thinks he gets his man. Wouldn't be able to interest you in a bribe, would I? I've got, uh, plenty to go around! [he opens the money bag, only for a rigged purple dye pack to burst in his face, ruining the money] My money! YOU BASTARD! [shooting at Jack through the train roof] HOW DOES THAT FEEL?! YOU LIKE THAT, HUH?! YOU LIKE IT, YOU BASTARD?! MY MONEY! [he runs out of bullets] Shit! You! I'm coming for you, Jack! [runs for the subway door, screaming in rage]

Howard Payne

A bomb is made to explode. That's its meaning. Its purpose. Your life is empty because you spend it trying to stop the bomb from becoming. And for who? For what? Do you know what a bomb is, Jack, that doesn't explode? It is a cheap gold watch, buddy.

Jaguar Owner

Oh shit! Oh shit!

Jack Traven

Pop quiz, asshole. You have a hair trigger aimed at your head. What do you do? What do you do? Turn around. TURN AROUND!

Jack Traven

Tell me again, Harry. Why did I take this job?
