Ethan Hunt

[edit]
  • Welcome to Vienna, Benji. Miss me?
  • That missing plane was carrying the Secretary of the World Bank. The fire bankrupted a global arms corporation. That wreck triggered a civil war. These are no accidents. They're links in a chain, the work of a single organization - the Syndicate. A rogue nation, trained to do what we do, with a new purpose. To destroy the system that created them, regardless of who's in their way.
  • [to Ilsa] You were just doing your job. That's all we're going to say about it.

Benji Dunn

[edit]
  • [to Ethan] You remember I told you one day, you were gonna take things too far? This is me speaking, by the way, it's not him.

Others

[edit]
  • Brandt: So what you're saying is there is no ledger, which means we have no proof that the Syndicate even exists. So we're back to square one, only now we're all wanted by the CIA. [sarcastically] I'm so proud of us.
  • Prime Minister: Atlee? He couldn't possibly be talking about... that Syndicate. 'Cause you assured me that that Syndicate was merely an exercise.
  • Alan Hunley: Hunt is uniquely training and highly motivated. A specialist without equal, immune to any countermeasures. There is no secret he cannot extract, no security he cannot breach, no person he cannot become. He has, most likely, anticipated this very conversation and is waiting to strike in whatever direction we move. Sir, Hunt is the living manifestation of destiny, and he has made you... his mission.

Dialogue

[edit]
Brandt: The package is on the plane.
Benji: Yeah, I know. We're currently formulating a Plan B. Although, technically, it's a Plan C.
Brandt: This isn't going very well.
Benji: I am aware of that, Brandt; you're not helping.
Brandt: The Committee has shut us down. Operations are being handed over to the CIA. There is no more IMF. I've been ordered to bring everyone in. Ethan...
Ethan: I understand.
Brandt: Ethan...
Ethan: I understand, Brandt. We didn't have this conversation. I've disappeared in London. You don't know where I am, if I'm dead or alive.
Brandt: This man you saw, can you find him?
Ethan: I won't stop until I do.
Brandt: This may very well be our last mission, Ethan. Make it count. [hangs up]
Hunley: Less than 24 hours after we interviewed Benji Dunn about Ethan Hunt, he was on a plane to Vienna with tickets to the opera, and within six hours of his arrival, the Chancellor was dead! Now, that may be circumstances to some public defender, but to the CIA, that is actionable intelligence!
Brandt: Consider for the moment the possibility that Ethan's investigation lead him to the opera and that he's the one with the actionable intelligence.
Hunley: In any case, finding Hunt is no longer a pet project! The Special Activities Division will now have full discretion.
Brandt: You mean shoot to kill.
Hunley: Whether Hunt lives or dies is entirely up to him.
Benji: Ethan, this is what I signed up for! Let me help you find him.
Ethan: That's why I brought you here in the first place, and look what happened! I can't protect you. That's why I need you to leave.
Benji: That's not your decision to make, Ethan! I am a field agent. I know the risks. More than that, I am your friend, no matter what I tell the polygraph every week. Now you called me because you needed my help, and you still do, so I am staying. And that is all we are gonna say about that.
Ethan: ...okay.
Benji: Good! Then where do we start.
Brandt: [during car chase in Casablanca, alongside Luther] It's a high-speed chase! You just had to get the 4x4, didn't you?
Luther: Don't blame me; you chose the car!
Brandt: You just had to have it!
Ilsa: Lane, Atlee, my government, your government, they're all the same. We only think we're fighting for the right side, because that's what we choose to believe.
Ethan: So where does that leave us?
Ilsa: The way I see it, you have three choices. One: you hand me and the disk over to the CIA, I am proof that the Syndicate exists, Lane becomes their problem and your work is done.
Brandt: My thoughts exactly.
Benji: Works for me.
Ilsa: But you know they're not going to believe you, and you'll all be tried for treason. Lane goes free.
Luther: I'm afraid she has a point.
Ilsa: Two: you let me walk away to an uncertain fate, and use the disk as bait to trap Lane. But part of you suspects you've met your match. And being a gambler, you'll probably end up handing Lane that disk whether you want to or not.
Benji: That is entirely possible.
Ethan: And option three?
Ilsa: Come away with me -- right now.
[Ethan quietly fills with confusion]
Luther: Oh, boy.
Ethan: And what about Lane?
Ilsa: Forget about Lane. There will always be another Lane. There will always be people like us to deal with him. We've done our part and we've been cast aside. We can be anyone. We can do anything. It's only a matter of going.
Hunley: I'm not interested in playing games, Brandt.
Brandt: And I'm not interested in seeing my friends get killed either. So if I'm going to betray them, we're going to do this in my terms and my terms only, do you understand? Keep your phone on, instruction will follow. [hangs up]
Hunley: Hunt, I hope you realize you've set US-UK relations back to the American Revolution.
Ethan: Desperate times, desperate measures, sir.
Brandt: When the Prime Minister found out about the Syndicate, Atlee attacked him.
Prime Minister: Yes, that's true.
Brandt: And then you saved the Prime Minister, sir.
Prime Minister: Did he? I'm very grateful.
Benji: [reciting what Lane is telling him over his earpiece] Human nature -- my weapon of choice.
Lane: From the moment I killed the young lady in the record shop, I knew you would...
Benji: [reciting what Lane is telling him over his earpiece] ...stop at nothing to catch me. I also knew Ilsa wouldn't have a choice. Whether she broke you that night you met or let you go, whether you let her run in Morocco, whether you went to Atlee or not...
Ethan: You were certain we'd end up where we are, right now. Then again... so was I. I know you, Lane. Somewhere along the line, you had a crisis of faith. Human life didn't matter any more. Or maybe it never really did. Either way, you killed too many innocent people without ever asking who was giving the orders, or why. You blame the system for what you are, instead of yourself. You wanted revenge. But Rome wasn't destroyed in a day. You needed help, you needed money -- a lot of it. And you'll stop at nothing to get it. That's how I know I'm gonna put you in a box.
