Dialogue
[edit]- Jack Stanfield: Nice flowers.
- Janet Stone: Born-again Bobby.
- Jack Stanfield: Maybe he's trying to save your soul.
- Janet Stone: He'd need bigger blossoms than that.
- Jack Stanfield: [Jack arrives home] Where are they?
- Bill Cox: Through here.
- Jack Stanfield: [Jack sees family tied up] Jesus. What is this?
- Andy Stanfield: Daddy!
- Jack Stanfield: Why have you done this for god's sake? [removes tape from their mouths] They're children.
- Bill Cox: [Referring to why the family has tape over their mouths] I said if they were trouble. Were they trouble?
- Vel: They were noisy.
- Willy: Yes. We made an executive decision.
- Bill Cox: You are a criminal, Willy, not an executive.
- Willy: Yeah, but I thought you said if...
- Bill Cox: Shut up, Willy.
- Andy Stanfield: Daddy.
- Jack Stanfield: I wanna know what you want. And I wanna know now.
- Bill Cox: Beth, I am sorry about all of this. I... I am, but well, there we are. Uh. I need you to talk to your husband. He listens to you. I need you to make him understand that if he doesn't do exactly as I ask, I will kill you and your two children. But if you can make him listen Beth, if you can make him do what I want, you'll all walk away from this unpleasantness, unscathed. Not because I'm a nice man, simply because there'll be no reason for me to hurt you. Make sense? Can I rely on your cooperation?
- Jack Stanfield: Just tell him yes.
- Beth Stanfield: Yes.
- Bill Cox: Sarah?
- Sarah Stanfield: Fine.
- Bill Cox: And you big fella?
- Andy Stanfield: Maybe.
- Beth Stanfield: [warningly] Andy.
- Bill Cox: No, it's all right. It's honest.
- [the morning after the kidnappers have taken over]
- Beth: You have to do whatever they want. I don't care what it is.
- Jack: It may not be that easy. We've seen their faces.
- Beth: But he said if we just cooperate...
- Jack: I know what they said, Beth!
- Jack Stanfield: [after Bill forces Jack to fire Janet] Janet, I want you to pack up your stuff and go home.
- Janet Stone: What? What do you mean?
- Jack Stanfield: Just what I said. Pack up your stuff and go home.
- Janet Stone: Why?
- Jack Stanfield: You're fired.
- Janet Stone: If this is a joke, it's not funny.
- Jack Stanfield: No, it's not a joke. Tomorrow, I'll call Human Resources. I'll get you a job with somebody else at the bank. Right now I want you to just do what I said.
- Janet Stone: What are you talking about? Is this because of him?
- Jack Stanfield: Don't argue with me, Janet!
- Janet Stone: But Jack, I haven't done anything wrong.
- Jack Stanfield: Pack up your shit and get out of here, now!
- Janet Stone: Screw you, Jack!
- Vel: So, you're an architect?
- Beth Stanfield: Yes.
- Vel: And you designed this house?
- Beth Stanfield: I did.
- Vel: It's nice.
- Beth Stanfield: Thanks.
- Vel: How old is it?
- Beth Stanfield: Seven years.
- Vel: How much does a house like this go for?
- Beth Stanfield: This is about robbing the bank, isn't it? You're using Jack to help you rob the bank.
- Vel: Open a few doors and press a few buttons.
- Liam: Just look after the kids, Beth. And Vel, stick to your work.
- [after Jack transfers the money]
- Jack Stanfield: It's done.
- [on the phone with Vel]
- Bill Cox: Vel, is the money there? Okay, good.
- Jack Stanfield: I've done everything you want. When do I get my family back?
- Bill Cox: We have some tidying up to do.
- Bill Cox: You designed the software, you find me a way in.
- Jack Stanfield: I wouldn't know where to start.
- Bill Cox: So, Willy, what happened today? How did Jack manage to handle the pen?
- Willy: I'm not exactly sure. I mean everything seemed to be going fine until...
- Bill Cox: Willy, I told you to watch him.
- Willy: Yeah, I was watching him. Everything seemed to be going cool and all of a sudden...
- Bill Cox: Willy, how can I expect Jack to do as he's told if you don't?
- Willy: Yeah, I'm sorry. I made a mistake.
- Bill Cox: Well, we all make mistakes, Willy. Just not as many as you.
- Willy: Hey, I said I was sorry!
- Bill Cox: All right... Ok, you're sorry. Watch them. [as Willy turns to watch Jack and Beth, Bill shoots him in the back, killing him] Get out. [as Jack and Beth leave the room, Pim enters] Clean up this mess.
