• Sam Gerard : [looking at Royce's Gun]  Got a back-up weapon?

  John Royce : Never had the need.

  Sam Gerard : Get one.

  [hands back Royce's gun] 

  Sam Gerard : Keep it in your suit unless I tell you to take it out. Get yourself a Glock and lose that nickel-plated sissy pistol.

• John Royce : You are really on my very last nerve. You are a mind-boggling pain in my ass.

• Sam Gerard : [Referring to the Glock as he is changing magazines]  These things are so cool.

  John Royce : Yeah.

  Sam Gerard : They shoot underwater! You can pour sand in them and they'll shoot. Shoot every time. It's a good choice.

• [after Gerard puts John Royce in handcuffs] 

  John Royce : Is this guy crazy?

  Cosmo Renfro : No, but he's a carrier.

• [while pulling a concealed gun from his suit] 

  John Royce : I guess you'll just have to slap the cuffs on me, and take me in...

  Mark J. Sheridan : Gerard!

  [Gerard pulls out his gun and shoots Royce] 

• John Royce : [seeing Cosmo about to light up a cigar]  Would you mind not lighting that?

  Cosmo Renfro : [continuing to light up his Cigar]  Yes.

• Sam Gerard : Newman, I want you to set up surveillance on Ms. Bineaux around the clock and get a tap order for a telephone here and at work.

  John Royce : He won't make a mistake like that.

  Sam Gerard : Oh he'll contact her I bet my Bears tickets on it.

• John Royce : I thought we didn't take our work personally.

  Sam Gerard : We don't. I do.

• Sam Gerard : [watching some surveillance tapes]  Hey. it looks like your agent friends are intercepting this. What do you know about this Royce?

  John Royce : I don't know anything.

• Sam Gerard : Do you have a weapon?

  John Royce : Yeah, a big one. How about you?

• John Royce : [showing Marie pictures of the dead agents]  This is Sam Harmon, one of my friends, Sheridan killed him with his own bare hands. So was Neil Kazinski. Neil had three little kids.

  Marie Bineaux, Mark's Girlfriend : Stop doing this to me. Even if I knew this man, it's not a crime, I've done nothing wrong. I haven't heard from him.

  Deputy Marshal Noah Newman : So, you *do* know him.

  John Royce : You just lied to us.

  Deputy Marshal Noah Newman : That's a federal offense.

• Sam Gerard : Get the tapes from the U.N. surveillance.

  John Royce : I don't think we have clearance for those.

  Sam Gerard : Get the clearance, get the tapes, don't tell me what we can't do!
