Episode: “The Last Dam Job”
Writer: John Rogers
- “Penny for your thoughts.” “You missed.”
- “Well, Nate, all a man has in this world — all he has — three things. His business, his possessions and his names. You take that all away, any man will kill.”
- “So what’ve you been doing for three years? Playing Robin Hood? You know what I’ve been doing for three years? I’ve been preparing for this day.” “You’ll have to do better.” “Better than killing your father? Wow, tough room.”
- “Do you remember when I said to you next time we would meet that I wouldn’t be so nice?” “Yeah.” “OK, welcome to the next time.”
- “Is that the job with the potato?” “Hmm hmm…I like that potato.”
- “As you can see, I’m fairly unhappy in my current job situation. What terms did you have in mind?”
- “My wallet. And hers. And…” “Dad, who is this?” “This…this is my daughter.” “See you later, sis!”
- “Now, listen. I hate you. I can’t stand you. But if we’re going to do this, we do it my way. You listen to me. If I…” “Say my name.”
- “I want my usual fee plus expenses and Parker dresses up as Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica.” “Hey — it’s not happening.” “I’ll accept Sophie as Counselor Troi. We’ll negotiate on the flight.”
- “No. You got me a bat cave? A bat cave!!!!” “No, I did not.” “Yeah, this is totally a bat cave. OK, you guys totally suck a little less now.” “Who the hell is this?” “Don’t ask.”
- “Wow, you are super old. Thank you for the history lesson. Maybe later you can tell us about that one time you punched Hitler in the face.”
- “I have two canes. One with a taser capable of delivering 10,000 volts. The other extends a six-inch stiletto knife.” “Which one is…is this one?” “I don’t seem to remember. I am super old.”
- “Can I hit him?” “Which one?” “Either one.” “You see, it’s not just me.”
- “I don’t have a lot of rules in this world — three actually. Don’t count the money until after the con. Know when to walk away from the con. And…” “The Gambler? You’re basing your life philosophy on a Kenny Rogers song?” “And…don’t get involved with a murderer.”
- “What part of give or take do you clearly not understand?”
- “How many fingers do you need to type? Round down.”
- “Cut the cake. I’ll try to remember that, sir. Cut the cake.” “What is with this ‘sir?’ Are you picking her up from the prom? I mean Parker in a prom dress just sounds…(Chaos gets tasered).” “I guess it was a taser.” “I love tasers.”
- “Wow, this must be how Eliot feels. I just realized…this is how he feels all the time. You just want to hit something.”
- “Your business. Your possessions. Your name.” “What?” “I know what his plan is.” “How?” “I…I gave it to him.”
- “That guy…a kid…he had God in his heart and a flag on his shoulder…clean hands. And I ain’t seen him in the mirror in over ten years. You can believe me. I get up every morning looking for him. So you can trust me when I tell you — you pull that trigger and two men die. The guy you killed. And the guy you used to be.”
- “The last time I underestimated you I was right.”
- “What’re you doing? What. Are. You. Doing?” “I’m thinking about saving my friend some trouble.”
- “Hell, next time give me the gun. I’m your huckleberry.” “Here. (Eliot hands Quinn the gun)” “A little late now.” “I love that movie.” “Who the hell doesn’t?”
- “My wife? You recruited my wife as your backup?” “Ex.” “He never says ex-wife.” “I always do.”
- “If temptation counted as cheating no marriage would make it past the first year. Imagine what it was like for me, you bringing James around all those years.” “James. Sterling?”
- “Seriously. Sterling.” “Seriously.”
- “No reason you should care but I approve of your young man very much.” “I do care.” “How does that feel?” “Weird. But I think I’m getting used to it.”
- “I hate you with the white hot heat of a thousand suns.” “I dream you died and wake up laughing.” “Sci-Five?” “No.”
- “You don’t have a gun.” “Yeah. That’s what makes it fair.”
- “You didn’t kill the man responsible for your son’s death.” “My son would be ashamed of me if I was a murderer.” “Yeah.” “My father, on the other hand, he’d buy me an ice cream.”
- “I gotta make some changes.” “What kind of changes?” “I got plans.” “Oh and that never goes wrong.” “Very big plans.” “Such as…(Nate and Sophie kiss)”
- “You can’t get your car in there. You can’t have a bat cave without a batmobile. How are you going to get a car in there?” “It’s a car and a boat.” “Just ask him.” “Nate! Can we keep the cave?” “We are not keeping the cave.” “Told you, didn’t I?” “Don’t be so hasty. Look. Hear me out. Two words. Eliot signal.”
- “Hey, let’s go break the law.” “One more time?” “Oh a few more times.”
- “Hey, Hardison, man. What’re you talking about? Like a light you would shine up in the air? Huh? How would that work? And how would you see it during the day, first of all. And what would you put on it?”
