Quotes 

• Victoria : You know, I was in love with an agent once.

  Sarah Ross : What happened?

  Victoria : Well, I was with MI6. And the relationship wasn't... sanctioned. So when it came to light, my loyalty was questioned. And I was ordered to kill him. It was a test.

  Sarah Ross : What did you do?

  Victoria : I put three bullets in his chest.

• Sarah Ross : [talking quietly about Marvin]  Wow. This guy's insane.

  Frank Moses : Well, he thought he was the subject of a secret government mind control project.

  Marvin Boggs : [in another room, checking files]  This'll take a minute.

  Sarah Ross : Sure.

  Frank Moses : As it turns out... he really was being given daily doses of LSD for 11 years.

  Sarah Ross : Well, in that case, he looks great.

  Frank Moses : Fantastic.

  Sarah Ross : Yeah...

• Sarah Ross : Get back. Go away. Stay away from me! Is that my bag?

  Frank Moses : Yeah.

  Sarah Ross : You-You packed it?

  Frank Moses : Yes.

  Sarah Ross : [looks around]  D-d-did you vacuum?

  Frank Moses : A little yeah, it was messy.

• Marvin Boggs : Do you know what's wrong with this country?

  Sarah Ross : They're all trying to kill us?

  Marvin Boggs : Exactly!

• Sarah Ross : Where are we? How did we get to New York City? Wow. I really hate you right now.

  Frank Moses : I was just hoping you'd be a little more understanding of the situation.

  Sarah Ross : I-I was hoping not to get kidnapped. Or drugged. I was hoping you'd have hair. So it looks like none of our dreams are coming true, at the moment.

• Joe Matheson : Sarah, this is Victoria. Best wet work asset in the business. And a true artist with an RPN.

  Sarah Ross : What? What's that?

  Victoria : I kill people, dear.

  [smiles, then shrugs] 

• Sarah Ross : What do you suppose the-the punishment is for what we're doing here?

  Frank Moses : Death... Maybe life in prison.

  Sarah Ross : Awesome.

• Sarah Ross : [while Victoria is providing cover with a sniper rifle]  Frank said you wanted me with you.

  Victoria : Yes, I thought it might be nice to have a bit of girl time together. You know, get to know each other. And I-I just wanted to tell you that in all the years I've known Francis... I've never seen him like this.

  [Sarah smiles] 

  Victoria : So if you break his heart, I will kill you. And bury your body in the woods.

  Sarah Ross : Wow... Okay.

• Frank Moses : People get shot all the time.

  Sarah Ross : No, they don't. They get... paper cuts.

  Marvin Boggs : I mostly get shot.

• Sarah Ross : The General has dropped his contact lens. Perhaps you'd like to help us?

• Frank Moses : [on the phone]  Did you start that new book?

  Sarah Ross : I did.

  Sarah Ross : And? What's it called?

  Sarah Ross : Uh, it's called "Love's Savage Secret".

  Frank Moses : Nice. Is it any good?

  Sarah Ross : It's terrible. I love it. It's awful.

• Sarah Ross : [drugged and almost kidnapped]  Am I gonna die?

  Frank Moses : No. You just need some sleep.

  Sarah Ross : I may vomit.

  [speeding away] 

  Sarah Ross : Wow, this is just like "Love's Savage Secret". I am high. You have such beautiful green eyes...

• Sarah Ross : [having just been told of a little problem in Moldova]  Can we go?

  Frank Moses : [laughs]  Yes. We can go.

• Frank Moses : Don't get me wrong, I know it's crazy. Don't think that, I don't think that this crazy. And it couldn't be more different than how I'd hoped to meet you for the first time.

  [the camera pans to the rear-view mirror which reveals that Frank has had to gag Sarah by duct taping her mouth shut, as while he may like her, her protests are preventing him from helping her] 

  Frank Moses : But you know sometimes things happen. And I just hope that one day, you and I will be sitting somewhere comfortably and look back on this as the great big adventure that it is.

  [still furious, Sarah rants and raves but her shouting at Frank is muffled by her gag] 

  Frank Moses : I'm a little hungry too, what should we get?

  Sarah Ross : [Sarah calms down after her rant and while she remains gagged in the back of the car, she accepts her current situation and lets out a muffled but comprehensible response]  Pizza.

• Sarah Ross : [Frank and Sarah arrive at the motel. Once Frank has finished tying Sarah to the bed, he removes the duct tape from her mouth]  If you, if you let me go now, I won't press charges, there's no hard feelings

  Frank Moses : What claim?

  Sarah Ross : How do I always attract losers like you?

  Frank Moses : I was in the CIA

  Sarah Ross : Yeah, I bet you were. I bet you're a spy

  Frank Moses : I have to go and see someone now

  Sarah Ross : You're just gonna make me sit here? What, this...

  Frank Moses : You couldn't be safer, no-one knows where you are

  [Frank grabs a roll of duct tape and tears a strip off] 

  Sarah Ross : Oh no! You don't, don't do it, you don't! Please, I-I, I don't want it

  Frank Moses : Just stay still, sorry

  [Sarah squirms for a while before sitting still and allowing Frank to duct tape her mouth shut and gag her again] 

  Frank Moses : Your eyes are so beautiful

• Sarah Ross : You can't just go around duct taping everyone. People are basically kind of decent.

  Frank Moses : That hasn't always been my experience.

• Frank Moses : We have to find Marvin Boggs.

  Sarah Ross : Marvin died two years ago in a fire.

  Frank Moses : Yeah. Marvin has died many times.

• Marvin Boggs : Come on, I'll show you the house.

  Sarah Ross : [points back to house as they're walking away]  What's that?

  Marvin Boggs : Decoy.

  Sarah Ross : [to Frank - just before they get to an abandoned 50s Chevy]  He lives in a car?

• Sarah Ross : Thanks for saving me. I guess.

  Frank Moses : No problem.

  Sarah Ross : Not my best first date. Not my worst, either.

• Sarah Ross : Wow. You really are CIA.
