Do you think she's still a virgin.

Is there anything you'd like to tell me before we start?

You tell on me, I'll tell on you.

What are you talking about? I'm as clean as a preacher's sheets. I'm clean as...

What about the time you blew a six-week operation because you were too busy getting a blow job?

You knew about that?

Uh-huh.

The code name of your assignment will be Boris. And your code name will be...

[hopeful]

Natasha?

No... Doris.

Dickless! I mean let's face it, if they were taking care of business, I'd be out of business.

Hi guys.

Well that worked real good. Right out of the old front gate.

Harry Tasker

Can you lean back for a second...
[Harry shoots two remaining pursuers.]

[Salim Abu Aziz reveals a nuclear weapon.]

Do you know what this is?

No, no wait. It's a snow cone maker.

Is it a water heater?

Ballsy. Stupid but ballsy.

Harry, do you realize it has been, if fact, ten years since you've been behind the wheel of one of these things?

If I break it, they can take it outta my pay.

Harry Tasker

First I'm gonna use you as a human shield, then I'm gonna kill this guard over there, with the Patterson trocar on the table. Then I was thinking about breaking you neck.

And how are you going to do all that?

Harry Tasker

You know my handcuffs?

Hmm...

Harry Tasker
[holds up his hands]

I picked them.

Harry Tasker

Sure, here's my invitation. [blows shed sky-high]

Harry Tasker
[Harry is reading the tapped phone conversations from Helen, and notices something, pulling over.]

Give me the page!

Harry Tasker

This jumps from page 9 to page 11.

[looks at paper]

Must be a typo.

Harry Tasker
[shouts]

Give me the goddamn page.

[Harry smashes the passenger side of the window with his bare fist. Gibson looks at the window, and quickly grabs page 10 from his coat.]

OK.

The bridge is out!

What?

The bridge it out!

I can't hear you!

[Harry then points at the broken bridge.] [panicing]

Oh God! The bridge is out Harry! The bridge is out!

[Harry's tracked down Helen's supposed paramour, Simon at a used car dealership and test-drives his '57 Chevy]

Okay, just ask yourself: What do women really want? You take these bored housewives, married to the same guy for years, they're stuck in a rut, then need some release! Promise of adventure, a hint of danger. I create that for them.

Harry Tasker

So basically, you're lying your ass off the whole time. See, I can't do that.

What are you, a Boy Scout? No, no, no, think of it as playing a role as fantasy. I mean, you got to work on their dreams. Get them out of their daily suburban grind for a few hours.

Dickless! I mean, let's face it, if they took care of business, I'd be out of business! You know what I mean? [laughs]

[looks at paper]

It's gotta be a typo.

Harry
[shouts]

Give me the goddamn page! [smashes the passenger side of the window with his bare fist.]

OK. [Quickly grabs page 10 from coat]

Is there anything you want to tell me before we start?

Harry Tasker

Yeah. I'm going to kill you pretty soon.

I see...How, exactly?

First I'm gonna use you as a human shield, then I'm gonna kill this guard over there, with the Patterson trocar on the table. Then I was thinking about breaking your neck.

Samir

And what makes you think you can do all that?

Tasker

You know my handcuffs?

Samir

Hmm...

Tasker
[holds up his uncuffed hands]

I picked them.
