- Ellie Cain: [On the telephone to confirm her son is alive] Are they feeding you?
- Leopold Cain: I just had breakfast.
- Lucian Knapp: So, where are we on those cameras?
- Turner: I thought we were fired.
- Lucian Knapp: By THAT guy? Yeah, right.
- Turner: They're three generations ahead. The guys who'll be using these haven't even been born yet.
- Lucian Knapp: So, why the hell didn't you find them?
- Turner: That's what I've been asking myself all morning.
- Lucian Knapp: No, you've been kicking your own ass for not finding them. What I'm asking is, why DIDN'T you find them?
- Turner: Because you can't find what you're not looking for?
- Lucian Knapp: So, you couldn't find them because you weren't looking for them, and you weren't looking for them because they don't belong. So, why were they there?
- Turner: I don't know.
- Lucian Knapp: Oh, what is a kidnapping at its core?
- Turner: Transactional.
- Lucian Knapp: That's right. "Hey, kidnapper, you care more about money than you do about people." It's a business.
- Turner: But cameras?
- Lucian Knapp: Cameras are personal.
- Benjamin Rand: She'll be put on a plane. The pilot has been given two flight plans, one to a beach town in Costa Rica, the other to a country with a thriving sex trade, where her English cries will be misconstrued as sounds of ecstasy. You may be dead, but she'll go on living. Exactly how she does is entirely up to you.
- Latimer King: These criminals are not like the criminals you're used to dealing with, sir. In these waters, there is an undertow that you can't possibly know from where you sit perched. This is not business. This is war.
- Benjamin Rand: You don't think business is a kind of war?
- Latimer King: Of course, I do, but if you lose this negotiation, these people will set fire to you and everything you care about in this world. They don't think of you as rich and powerful, Mr. Rand. They just think of you as rich.
