Page 1 of 2If these walls could talk, huh. All this history, I envy you.
Then bag your job, you can be just like me.
No, really. The debt this country owes you guys.
Chuck, are you gonna dance with your hand on my ass all night or are you gonna make your move?
So, sir, you and Muir came up together, right?
Troy Fogler
Mmm-hmm.
How well do you know him?
Troy Fogler
No one knows Nathan, not really.
Do you trust him?
Troy Fogler
He's a man who got the job done.
We need the press on this like we need a third tit.
You using the other two?
Dr. Ahmed
Is it hard? To take life?
Gladys Jennip
Feeling a little paranoid on our last day?
When did Noah build the ark, Gladys? Before the rain.
Gladys Jennip
What is this about?
Money. Free trade, microchips, toaster ovens.
Gladys Jennip
And what does that have to do with you?
Nothing.
I take it you didn't get to be a marksman putting food on your mama's table.
No, sir. We have a Safeway back home.
Where'd you learn to shoot?
Boy scouts, sir.
What, are you kidding me?
No, sir.
Hell of an ad for the Boy Scouts.
See that building across the way?
Yeah.
Do you know anyone there?
No.
In five minutes I want to see you on the balcony.
What do...
Five minutes.
Can't we discuss it over coffee?
You just lost ten seconds.
When I was a kid I used to spend summers on my uncle's farm. And he had this plow horse he used to work with everyday. He really loved that plow horse. One summer she came up lame. It could barely stand. The vet offered to put her down. You know what my uncle said?
No, Muir, what did he say?
He said, "Why would I ask somebody else to kill a horse that belonged to me?"
You just gave her four pieces of personal information for one dubious impersonal fact. 1) You're straight, 2)You're engaged, 3)Tomorrow's your girls birthday, and 4)You have terrible taste in women's clothing.
Just trying to find out where she got that dress.
What if she were an asset? You told her four lies that now have to be true.
Robert Aiken
Patricia?
Yeah, my third wife.
Dr. William Byars
My God, how many wives have you had?
Four. You want to hear about them or Bishop?
I missed you, too.
You want flowers at 6am?
Flowers would be nice, but I'll settle for breakfast.
I got a good spot--I taught a guy to make migas.
A Mexican restaurant in Beirut? I'm impressed.
All right, so what else? What else do I need to know?
Put away some money so you can die someplace warm and don't ever touch it. Not for anyone, ever.
Okay, is that it?
Don't ever risk your life or career for an asset. If it comes down to you or them... send flowers.
Don't tell me that. Don't **** tell me that. You didn't look in his eyes. Don't tell me that!
He was your asset, somebody you use for information.
Ah, Jesus Christ, you just... You don't just trade these people like they're baseball cards! It's not a **** game!
Oh, yes it is. It's exactly what it is. And it's no kid's game either. This is a whole other game. And it's serious and it's dangerous. And it's not one you want to lose.
Nathan, we killed this man. We used him and we killed him. Okay then, you got to help me understand this one. You got... Nathan, what are we doing here? And don't give me some bullshit about the greater good.
That's exactly what it's about. Because what we do is unfortunately very, very necessary. And if you're not willing to sacrifice scum like Schmidt for those that want nothing more than their freedom, then you better take a long hard look at your chosen profession, my friend. Because it doesn't get any easier. You wanna walk? You wanna walk, walk.
