Samantha:
All right. Jerry, I want you to acknowledge that my needs means nothing to you and you're a selfish prick and a liar.
Jerry:
Oh, my God!
Samantha:
Jerry, acknowledge.
Jerry:
I... Ok. I will acknowledge that I promised to go to Vegas with you. But now we're just slightly delayed. If you want to construe my wanting to stay alive as being selfish, well, then okay. But I have every intention of going with you because your needs are very important to me, sweetheart. Come on. Look at my all my stuff here, all over the pavement. Come on, baby? Huh? What do you say? Ok?
Samantha:
I'm going with or without you, Jerry. What's it gonna be? A bastard!
Jerry:
A bastard. What happened to, uh, "sweetheart" and "big love" and all those things you called me in the bedroom last night?
Samantha:
The only thing I'm interested in calling you, Jerry, is a cab!
Cortana:
[at the Control Room control panel] There, try that.
The Master Chief:
[the Master Chief puts Cortana's AI chip into the panel] You okay?
Cortana:
Never been better! You can't imagine the wealth of knowledge here. So much so fast! It's glorious!
The Master Chief:
So, what kind of weapon is it?
Cortana:
What are you talking about?
The Master Chief:
Let's stay focused, now. Halo; how do we use it against the Covenant?
Cortana:
This ring isn't a cudgel, you barbarian, it's something else. Something much more important. Gimme a second to access... Yes, this ring, it's forerunner. The forerunner built this ring, what they call a fortress world, in order to... Wait... no, that can't be... Oh, those Covenant fools! They must have known! There must have been signs!
The Master Chief:
Slow down; you're losin' me.
Cortana:
The Covenant found something, buried in this ring, something terrible, and now, they're afraid.
The Master Chief:
Something buried? Wha...
Cortana:
THE CAPTAIN! WE'VE GOT TO STOP THE CAPTAIN!
The Master Chief:
Keyes?
Cortana:
The weapons cache he's looking for it's not really... it doesn't really exist!
The Master Chief:
[tired and confused] I don't understa...
Cortana:
-There's no time! Get out of here, find Keyes, stop him! [the Master Chief runs out of the room]
Cortana:
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
Bob Barnes:
If anything happens to me or my family, an accident, an accusation, anything, then first your son will disappear, his body will never be found. Then your wife. Her body will never be found either. This is guaranteed. Then, whatever is the most dangerous thing you do in your life, it might be flying in a small plane, it might be walking to the bank, you will be killed. Do you understand what I'm saying? I want you to acknowledge that you do understand so that we're clear and there won't be any mistakes.
Dean Whiting:
Beirut rules, Mr. Barnes?
John Quincy Adams:
[to the court] James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington... John Adams. We've long resisted asking you for guidance. Perhaps we have feared in doing so, we might acknowledge that our individuality, which we so, so revere, is not entirely our own. Perhaps we've feared an... an appeal to you might be taken for weakness. But, we've come to understand, finally, that this is not so. We understand now, we've been made to understand, and to embrace the understanding... that who we are *is* who we were. We desperately need your strength and wisdom to triumph over our fears, our prejudices, ourselves. Give us the courage to do what is right. And if it means civil war? Then let it come. And when it does, may it be, finally, the last battle of the American Revolution.
Mission Commander Swanbeck:
Good morning, Mr. Hunt. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, involves the recovery of a stolen item designated "Chimera." You may select any two team members, but it is essential that the third member of your team be Nyah Nordoff-Hall. She is a civilian, and a highly capable professional thief. You have forty-eight hours to recruit Miss Hall and meet me in Seville to receive your assignment. As always, should any member of your team be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow all knowledge of your actions. And Mr. Hunt, the next time you go on holiday, please be good enough to let us know where you're going. This message will self-destruct in five seconds.
Ethan Hunt:
If I let you know where I'm going, I won't be on holiday.
