Identifying the Threat in a Critical Moment
Matt Farrell
That's her!
John McClane
Her" who?
Agent Johnson
What're you talking about?
Matt Farrell
It's them.
John McClane
Are you saying it's "them" them?
Matt Farrell

[McClane picks up his handset]
John McClane
Just keep your mouth shut for a minute. Hey, Metro, how's your day going over there? Gotta be pretty, uh, crazy over there, what with all those 587s, huh?
[speaks into the radio. Mai, along with Gabriel and several other henchmen, listen in]
Mai Linh
Yes sir; we've had to dispatch all units.

It's Detective McClane, asshole. Don't worry, though, we're gonna have plenty of time to get to know each other when I come visit you in prison.
[Trey begins pulling up information on McClane on his computers]
Thomas Gabriel
But, John, I already know so much about you: your address in Brooklyn; payments on your mortgage; how long you've been a member of the NYPD; and how's Holly? Well that's sad - you're divorced. Was that tough on little Jack and Lucy? Now this is sad: after 30 years I'd have thought you'd have a better pension plan than what I see here. Oh, and it gets worse: your 401k no longer exists! Tell you what, let me make it up to you: shoot Mr. Farrell in the head and drive away, and by the time you reach the end of the next block, all your debts will be wiped clean, and your children will be set for life.

Confrontation Between McClane and Gabriel
Thomas Gabriel
Mai, talk to me. What's going on?
John McClane
Mai? Oh yeah, the scrawny little Asian chick, likes to kick people? I don't think she's going to be talking to anyone for a very long time. Last time I saw her, she was at the bottom of an elevator shaft with an SUV rammed up her ass. Listen, jackass; your fire sale is over. Just pack up your little circus, or I'm gonna come and I'm gonna kick your ass.
Thomas Gabriel
You. Have no idea. Who I am, or what. I am capable of! When I'm finished here - and I promise it'll be soon! - I will focus. All my attention. On you! You want to make things personal, fine!

Nice poster.

Seth Bullock
What else?
Samuel Fields
Their defects... notwithstanding, they testify to His wond'rous glory. Singing, he was, at the end, Marshal, bout walking the valley. Joyful to hear and behold. Singing.

You'd best counsel your partner proper. The safety of mother and child...
