Quotes
Doyle: Be cool with Tommy — you know he's crazy.
Bodie: Cowley wouldn't accept that. No one in the Big A's crazy.
Doyle: Motivated, then. His whole family was wiped out by terrorists, you know.
Bodie: Unlucky.
Doyle: Yeah.
Bodie: That they overlooked Tommy.
Doyle: That's a lousy thing to say.
Bodie: Tommy's a lousy thing to be. He's a killer.
Doyle: And what makes you so different?
Bodie: The difference is, Doyle, I do it, but I don't enjoy it.
Cowley: So they're out there somewhere, unaware.
[The witnesses on honeymoon]
Bodie: I shouldn't think they're out, Sir. More likely in. Behind locked doors, curtains drawn. It's what newlyweds usually do, Sir. So I'm told.
Cowley: In the middle of the day? Don't judge everyone by your own standards, Bodie.
[Cowley catches his men off-guard, then is caught off-guard himself]
Bodie: Told you you'd enjoy yourself, Sir.
[At the stake-out of Sumner's]
Bodie: Doyle?
Doyle: Yeah?
Bodie: You forgot to bring any beer.
Doyle: No, I didn't. I remembered.
Bodie: Did you?
Doyle: Yeah, 'course I did. I remembered not to bring any.
Bodie: I'm like a fine piece of machinery — I need lubrication.
Doyle: Yeah, well, too much lubrication and that fine piece of machinery might finish up with a bullet up its crankcase.
Bodie: He sits there a safe distance away and sends in a psychopath to keep us company. I tell you, Cowley is —
Doyle: Bodie...
Cowley: The radio is open, Bodie. But continue with your interesting assessment.
Cowley is...
Cowley would like to know what Cowley is.
Bodie: Would you believe warm and considerate?
