Matt Farrell: [looks at Lucy] Really?
John McClane: Not that one.

Matt Farrell: [to Lucy] Wow, I know that tone. It's just weird hearing it come from someone... with hair.

Matt Farrell: The news is completely manipulated. Everything you hear, every single day is designed by corporate media to do one thing only. To keep you living in fear.

The Warlock: [to Matt] Why did you bring a cop to my command center?

Thomas Gabriel: [about McClane] You're a Timex watch in a digital age.

John McClane: [covering the webcam] You think you can, uh, find a track where he is?
Thomas Gabriel: Detective, covering the camera with your hand does not turn off the microphone.

Honestly, you can tell me. I mean, how does that work? Got some kind of service or something? Some kind of 800 number? 1-800-HENCHMEN? Oh, you know what? I bet you're still on hold with, "Can I get another dead Asian hooker bitch over here right away?"

John McClane: You know what you get for being a hero? Nothin'. You get shot at. You get a little pat on the back, blah, blah, blah, attaboy. You get divorced. Your wife can't remember your last name. Your kids don't want to talk to you. You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me, kid, nobody wants to be that guy.
Matt Farrell: Then why you doing this?
John McClane: Because there's no body else to do it right now, that's why. Believe me, if there were somebody else to do it, I'd let them do it, but there's not. So we're doing it.
Matt Farrell: Ah. That's what makes you that guy.

Matt Farrell: Seriously, uh, you probably shouldn't antagonize them, since they have all the loaded guns, and whatnot.

John McClane: Stuff like what?
Matt Farrell: Like killing people?
John McClane: Yeah. But not for a long time.
Matt Farrell: [upset] So, who were those guys? Huh? Why were they trying to kill you? Why'd they blow up my goddamn apartment?
John McClane: They were there to kill you.
Matt Farrell: Why would they wanna kill me?
John McClane: You tell me, kid. You're the criminal.

John McClane: Mai? Oh, yeah. Little Asian chick, likes to kick people? I don't think she's gonna be talkin' to anybody for a really long time. Last time I saw her she was at the bottom of a elevator shaft with an SUV rammed up her ass.

Lucy McClane: Daddy, you're out of your mind.
John McClane: What're you talkin' about?
Lucy McClane: You shot yourself!

[McClane picks up handset]
Matt Farrell: Don't say anything! Don't...
John McClane: Just keep your mouth shut for a minute.

Mai Lihn: Yes, sir, we've had to dispatch all units.

Lucy McClane: Who are you?

Lucy McClane: Not today.

Robert Russo: [referring to Lucy] This bitch is a handful.
[Lucy punches Russo, and he slaps her back]
Thomas Gabriel: [sarcastically to Russo] Are you gonna be all right?
[to Lucy]
Thomas Gabriel: Hey, behave, or I will hurt you.
Lucy McClane: Oh, yeah? Let's step outside, just you and me. We'll see who hurts who.
Thomas Gabriel: [smiling] You really are his daughter.

Lucy McClane: Dad! Stop it! I mean it!
Jim: Dad? You said your dad was dead!
John McClane: What? You told this jerk-off I was dead? You actually said that?
Lucy McClane: I may have exaggerated a little bit.

Matt Farrell: Oh, it's a myth? Really? Please tell me she's only here for show and she's actually not in charge of anything.
John McClane: Hey, what's a fire sale?
Matt Farrell: It's a three-step... it's a three-step systematic attack on the entire national infrastructure. Okay, step one: take out all the transportation. Step two: the financial base and telecoms. Step three: You get rid of all the utilities. Gas, water, electric, nuclear. Pretty much anything that's run by computers which... which today is almost everything. So that's why they call it a fire sale, because everything must go.

[to medic]
John McClane: Hospital.

John McClane: [pissed off] All you gotta do is go pick up a kid down in New Jersey, and drive him down to D.C. How hard can that be, huh? Can't be that hard, no, can it? No, gotta be a senior detective. A thing like a traffic jam, throwing a car at me's gonna stop me?

John McClane: Another day in paradise.

John McClane: Damn hamster!

John McClane: [in unrated version] Yippie-kai-yay, motherfucker!

Matt Farrell: When was the last time you remember turning on the radio and listening to popular music? Or, just give me a decade. The 70's? I'm guessing - was, was Michael Jackson still black? Pearl Jam - I'll go back ten years with you. Ten years - 20 years, The Cure? Nothing?

Thomas Gabriel: You know, John, I feel like we've gotten off on the wrong foot. And because of that, you think I'm the bad guy. Nothing could be further from the truth. I'm the good guy here. I told them this could happen if they didn't prepare. Did I get a "Thank you"? No, I got crucified. But, they wouldn't listen.
John McClane: You got their attention now, don't you?
Thomas Gabriel: That's right. I am doing the country a favor.
John McClane: By tearing it apart?
Thomas Gabriel: Better me than some outsider. Some religious nut job bent on Armageddon. Nobody wants to see that happen. Everything I've broken can be fixed if the country is willing to pay for it.
John McClane: Ah, bullshit. It's always been about the money.

John McClane: Agent Johnson?
Agent Johnson: That's right.

The Warlock: Thomas Gabriel's the guy who shut down NORAD with a laptop just to prove a point, and you think I'm scared of you?

John McClane: I could come and find you, kick your ass and throw you out of your own party. What do you think about that, dickhead?

Matt Farrell: I'm not a doctor but-but you look like you're hurt.
John McClane: Sexy, right?
Matt Farrell: No.
