Quotes 

• Mrs. Jones : Point Blanc. It's a school for troubled teenagers.

  Alan Blunt : How did you make that connection?

  Mrs. Jones : I didn't. Alex Rider did.

• Alex Rider : Point Blanc

  Mrs. Jones : Sorry?

  Alex Rider : It's the last thing he said to me before he went out. He wrote it on his desk. Where was he going?

  Mrs. Jones : I don't know. But we'll find out.

• Alan Blunt : So, he didn't work in a Bank, obviously. He worked for us.

  Alex Rider : And who are you?

  Alan Blunt : Who do you think we are?

  Alex Rider : Security services. MI6 or something.

  Alan Blunt : Or something is about right. My name is Alan Blunt. I'm in charge of this department. We are a specialized subdivision of the British Secret Intelligence Service. MI6 gather information, we apply it. We take care of the bigger picture, and we use any means necessary. And your uncle was one of our very best field agents.

  Alex Rider : He lied to me. My whole life. Who he was, what he did. Everything.

  Alan Blunt : Secrecy is an occupational necessity in our line of work. Your uncle was shot and killed doing his job, there was no car crash, obviously. But you know that already, because you are very much your uncle's nephew.

  Alex Rider : and why does that matter anymore?

  Alan Blunt : because there's something we'd like you to do for us.

  Alex Rider : what?

  Alan Blunt : A job.

  Alex Rider : You want me to help you? He died in some scummy warehouse, because of you. You can piss off. All of you can piss off.

  [Alex get's up and walks towards the door] 

  Alan Blunt : Just pick up the phone in the morning Alex, if you change your mind.

  [Alex leaves] 

  Mrs. Jones : This is just wrong.

  Alan Blunt : The world is changing Mrs Jones. If we play by the old rules, we're going to lose the new battles.
