The Prisoner's Dilemma (2017)

Paul Adelstein: Paul Kellerman

Quotes 

• Paul Kellerman : State Department has been looking for Poseidon for years, you idiot. He's a rogue CIA operative. Nobody knows who he is.

  Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell : Here we go.

  Paul Kellerman : I know it's a little above your pay grade, being a common criminal. I mean, we're talking about a single man. Right? A hawk who apparently doesn't like how the White House goes about foreign policy, and decided to take matters into his own hands. Right? Not with armies, not with invasions, but by getting a single person killed, by getting a single person elected to office, by getting a single person released from prison.

  Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell : Prison. Like the one in Yemen where Michael's at.

  Paul Kellerman : You want my guess? It's Abu Ramal that Poseidon wants free.

  Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell : Guy I seen on the prison telly. Wait, I... I thought CIA was supposed to kill terrorists, not release them.

  Paul Kellerman : Poseidon is no longer CIA. He doesn't report to anybody. He just pursues his own ideology. Okay, for instance, listen. Let's say you think Russia and Iran are having too much influence in the Middle East, and you don't think Washington is getting the job done. You free Ramal. Sure, he's an Islamic radical nut job, but he will fight Iran and Russia for you.

  Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell : The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

  Paul Kellerman : And what's so shrewd about Poseidon is he does it all without a network, which is why he's so hard to find.

  Theodore 'T-Bag' Bagwell : One man can pull strings like that?

  Paul Kellerman : One man manipulating a handful of others. Abu Ramal is a monster. And there's a spot in hell reserved for him, but the hottest spot is reserved for Poseidon, because he is letting Ramal loose on the world again. Those men, they have the blood of thousands - *thousands* - on their hands. Compared to them, you and me are a couple of angels.
