- [Johnny C is working as a bartender in a drag club. John comes to see him]
- Johnny C: I got one question: was it your idea to hook me up with the Village People here?
- John: Well, you're safe, aren't you?
- Johnny C: Well, from the mob, yeah. I mean no self-respecting wiseguy would ever be caught dead in a joint like this. Only... do me one favor. Don't let it out that I'm straight, all right? I don't wanna break any hearts or nothing.
- John: Trust me.
- John: Do you remember when you told me that if I ever needed anything, I could come to you?
- Johnny C: Yes.
- John: Well, I need your help.
- Johnny C: Wait, you want my help?
- John: Yes... right now.
- Johnny C: You got it!
- [to the bartender]
- Johnny C: Evan! Look, cover me at the bar for a few seconds. I gotta go home and help out a friend here.
- Evan the Bartender: [looking at John] Who is he? He looks rough!
- Johnny C: Please, don't start. It's not what you think.
- John: I'm sorry, do you two need a moment alone?
- Johnny C: We're fine, thanks.
- John: Just an idea.
- Johnny C: Evan here just... worries about me. He and I...
- [John smirks at Johnny insinuating what it means]
- Johnny C: Don't ask!
- [the phone rings]
- Undersecretary of Defense Daniel Harper: It's for you.
- [takes the phone]
- Robert: Yeah?
- John: [over phone] You've just been erased.
- John: There's a major arms deal going down. A U.S. contractor is selling out to international terrorists.
- [Tony and his whole crew start laughing]
- Tony Two Toes: Mr. Sixty Minutes, tell me something I don't know.
- John: It's going to happen tonight, on your docks.
- Tony Two Toes: [stops laughing] *That* I didn't know.
- Sal: We heard you got whacked.
- Johnny C: Yeah, must have been some other guy.
- Tony Two Toes: Yeah? Was it some other guy who ratted out Vincenzo Canelli?
- Johnny C: Hey, Canelli's a piece of shit.
- Tony Two Toes: I got no love for Canelli, either. But you crossed the line, Johnny.
- Johnny C: Hey, I'm still here.
- Tony Two Toes: Nah, that don't matter. What you did was wrong, John.
- John: [entering] No, what he did got a drug dealer and his poison off the streets.
- Tony Two Toes: Whose da tree trunk?
- Johnny C: You want me to help you break into Cyrez?
- John: Yeah.
- Johnny C: What, are you shitting me? When you said you needed my help, I thought you wanted me to help you move a sofa or something.
- John: Pull over, up ahead.
- Johnny C: Alright, I'm gonna help you out here... All we are gonna need is some tanks, a couple of rocket launchers, and a set of balls like, uh... the King of Bayonne.
- John: Lee, this is Father Rodriguez.
- Lee: How do you do?
- Father Rodriguez: Of course, I wasn't always Father Rodriguez. You might say I was born again, with a little help from our friend here.
- John: Some of his Colombian associates wanted to introduce him to God personally.
- Father Rodriguez: I've been given a second chance at life. I'm using it to do God's work.
- Agent: This is Special Agent John Kruger. He'll be handling your personal security.
- Lee: My protection?
- John: New identity, relocation, I'll take you through it step by step.
- Lee: What are you talking about? I'm not going anywhere!
- John: You're in an extremely high risk situation, Miss Cullen. That should've been explained to you.
- John: That weapon, it came from your company, right?
- Lee: Yes. It's an EMP prototype, it's not even supposed to exist.
- John: EMP?
- Lee: Electro-Magnetic Pulse. No gunpowder, no conventional bullets. They fire caseless aluminum shells at nearly the speed of light.
- John: You're talking about the rail gun?
- Lee: [surprised] That's right.
- John: The Navy has been working on those for years. But the smallest one I've ever seen is mounted on a battleship.
- Lee: Cyrez was contracted to scale them down, design a man-portable version. The most powerful assault rifle on earth. They took millions, then said the physics were impossible.
- John: It looked real enough to me.
