John Lee : You're safer with me.
Meg Coburn : Is it my perfume or something? Because you are the second guy today to assume I need, want or will accept help. I won't.
John Lee : [drawing his pistol] It's not an option.
Meg Coburn : And what happens when I tell you to go fuck yourself?
[John cocks his pistol]
Meg Coburn : O.K. If that's the way you want to play it. But when the gun is in my hand, we're gonna have this conversation again.

Meg Coburn : So you didn't want to kill a kid. Welcome to the human race.

[Kogan is stalking Meg]
Michael Kogan : I'm gonna find you. But you could save me time and put a bullet in your head. If the positions were reversed, I'd do the same for you.
[he becomes distracted, then she appears behind him]
Meg Coburn : Are you?
Michael Kogan : Excuse me?
Meg Coburn : Gonna put a bullet in your head, now that our positions are reversed?
Michael Kogan : [attempts to laugh] Meg, it doesn't...

Meg Coburn : I didn't think so.

Meg Coburn : You know, you could've saved yourself a lot of trouble just by doing that third job.

Meg Coburn : Zedkov? Jesus Christ. You're getting yourself killed for a cop?
John Lee : Not a cop. His son.
Meg Coburn : What?
John Lee : A seven-year-old boy.
Meg Coburn : Why?
John Lee : That's how Mr. Wei *deals* with his enemies. Through their families.

John Lee : My father taught me how to shoot.
Meg Coburn : Playing catch is so impersonal.

Meg Coburn : [Holding gun to John's head] Now what the fuck did you get me into with Terence Wei?
John Lee : He's my patron.
Meg Coburn : Patron?
John Lee : He made it possible for me to come here.
Meg Coburn : What does he, sponsor you to play the violin?
John Lee : ...in exchange for... services.
Meg Coburn : What a nice way of saying you kill people.

Meg Coburn : Smile, and say "Flight from prosecution."

Stan 'Zeedo' Zedkov : You're not under arrest, Meg, which means you have no right to an attorney.
Meg Coburn : It also means I can walk out the fucking door.
