  • Just once, I'd like a regular, normal Christmas. Eggnog, a fuckin' Christmas tree, a little turkey. But, no! I gotta crawl around in this motherfuckin' tin can!

[edit] Dialogue

[Reporter Richard Thornburg seeks a different seat aboard the NEA plane]
Richard Thornburg: You cannot put me near that woman.
Flight Attendant: Excuse me?
Holly Gennaro-McClane: He means he's filed a restraining order against me. I'm not allowed within 50 feet of him.
Thornburg: Fifty yards. So, by keeping me in this section, you are violating a court order. I can sue you and this airline. That woman assaulted me and she humiliated me in public.
Flight Attendant: [to Holly] What did you do?
Holly: Knocked out two of his teeth.
Flight Attendant: Would you like some champagne?

John McClane: Captain Lorenzo?
Capt Lorenzo: Yeah.
McClane: John McClane.
Lorenzo: Yeah, yeah. I know who you are. You're the asshole that's just broke seven FAA and five District of Columbia regulations, running around my airport with a gun, shooting at people. What do you call that shit?
McClane: Self-defense.

Al: Hey, I'm right here partner. Your stiff's dossier is coming through right now.
McClane: What can you tell me about him?
Al: He's dead.
McClane: You needed a computer to figure that one out?
Al: No, no, no. You don't follow me. According to the Department of Defense, he's been dead for two years.

Lorenzo: Hey McClane, I've got a first-class unit in here, SWAT team and all. We don't need any Monday morning quarterback.
McClane: Fuck Monday morning, my wife is on one of the goddamn planes these guys are fucking with, that puts me on the playing field. And if you had moved your fat ass when I told you to, we wouldn't be hip-deep in shit right now...

Samantha: Big drug dealer on his way to prison. Gun fight in airport. Every controller and cafe shop getting beeped and hauling ass. And you, rocking the boat. Connection? Come on, McClane. Just a few words.
McClane: Ok, just a few words. Fuck off.
Samantha: Thanks, but I already got that from Colonel Stewart.

Ramon Esperanza: Who are you?
John McClane: A cop.
Esperanza: A cop?
McClane: Yeah, one of the good guys. You see, you're one of the bad guys and now that I've got your sorry ass, I'm gonna trade it for my wife.

Grant: You're the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time.
McClane: Story of my life.

Stewart: How is it going? [pushes McClane off the plane] Bon voyage! [McClane pulls off the gas cap as he falls] Happy landing asshole!
McClane: [pulls out lighter] Yippie ki yay, motherfucker. [throws lighter onto gas trail, igniting it and blowing up the plane as it takes off]
