Deckard
- Deckard: [narrating] I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life; my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where do I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.
- Deckard: She's a replicant, isn't she?
- Tyrell: I'm impressed. How many questions does it usually take to spot them?
- Deckard: I don't get it, Tyrell.
- Tyrell: How many questions?
- Deckard: Twenty, thirty, cross-referenced.
- Tyrell: It took more than a hundred for Rachael, didn't it?
- Deckard: [realizing Rachael believes she's human] She doesn't know.
- Tyrell: She's beginning to suspect, I think.
- Deckard: Suspect? How can it not know what it is?
- Rachael: Do you like our owl?
- Deckard: It's artificial?
- Rachael: Of course it is.
- Deckard: Must be expensive.
- Rachael: Very.
- Rachael: I'm Rachael.
- Deckard: Deckard.
- Rachael: It seems you feel our work is not a benefit to the public.
- Deckard: Replicants are like any other machine - they're either a benefit or a hazard. If they're a benefit, it's not my problem.
- Tyrell: We began to recognize in them a strange obsession. After all, they are emotionally inexperienced, with only a few years in which to store up the experiences which you and I take for granted. If we gift them with a past, we create a cushion or a pillow for their emotions, and consequently, we can control them better.
- Deckard: Memories! You're talking about memories!
- Bryant: You could learn from this guy, Gaff. He's a goddamned one-man slaughterhouse, that's what he is. Four more to go! Come on, Gaff, let's go.
- Deckard: Three. There's three to go.
- Bryant: There's four. That - that skin job that you V-K'ed at the Tyrell Corporation, Rachael. Disappeared. Vanished. Didn't even know she was a replicant. Something to do with a brain implant says Tyrell.
- Bryant: They jumped a shuttle off-world, killed the crew and passengers. We found the shuttle drifting off the coast two weeks ago, so we know they're around.
- Deckard: Embarrassing.
- Bryant: No sir. Not embarrassing, because no one's ever going to find out they're down here. 'Cause you're gonna spot 'em and you're gonna air 'em out!
- Deckard: I don't work here anymore. Give it to Holden. He's good.
- Bryant: I did. He can breathe okay, as long as nobody unplugs him.
- [last lines]
- Deckard: [narrating] Gaff had been there, and let her live. Four years, he figured. He was wrong. Tyrell had told me Rachael was special. No termination date. I didn't know how long we had together... Who does?
- Policeman: This sector is closed to ground traffic. What are you doing here?
- Deckard: I'm working. What are you doing?
- Policeman: Arresting you, that's what I'm doing.
- Deckard: Remember when you were six? You and your brother snuck into an empty building through a basement window. You were going to play doctor. He showed you his, but when it got to be your turn you chickened and ran; you remember that? You ever tell anybody that? Your mother, Tyrell, anybody? Remember the spider that lived outside your window? Orange body, green legs. Watched her build a web all summer, then one day there's a big egg in it. The egg hatched...
- Rachael: The egg hatched...
- Deckard: Yeah...
- Rachael: ...and a hundred baby spiders came out... and they ate her.
- Deckard: Implants. Those aren't your memories, they're somebody else's. They're Tyrell's niece's.
- Deckard: [he sees that she's deeply hurt by the implication] O.K., bad joke... I made a bad joke. You're not a replicant. Go home, O.K.? No, really - I'm sorry, go home.
