[from trailer]
Luther Stickell : Ethan, what's your objective? What's your ultimate objective?
Ethan Hunt : Your life will always matter more to me than my own.
Luther Stickell : None of our lives can matter more than this mission.
Ethan Hunt : I don't accept that.

Grace : [talking about Ilsa] Am I the reason she's dead?
Luther Stickell : No, she's the reason you're alive.

Luther Stickell : I packed you a BASE parachute and a speed wing, depending on how you need to leave the train. And I modified our comms to use sky wave radio. Not as reliable as satellite, but completely analogue, immune to the Entity.
Ethan Hunt : Got it.
Luther Stickell : This is where I leave you. This is the drive from the laptop I was using last night. If there's even a trace of the Entity's encoding in there, I'll find it. But it's going to take everything I've got. I have to work complete offline in a place where the Entity can't find me. I have to go.
Ethan Hunt : I understand.
Luther Stickell : Now, I have to ask you a question. Not as your partner, but as your friend. What's your objective?
Ethan Hunt : Kill the Entity.
Luther Stickell : What about killing Gabriel?
Ethan Hunt : He knows what the key unlocks. If we need him alive, I wouldn't have forgotten it.
Luther Stickell : Will you still remember that when you're looking him in the eye? Think about it. Why else would the Entity want him to kill someone you care about? Everyone else thinks they can control the Entity. Only YOU want to kill it. In some probable future, it sees you winning, Ethan. And it's afraid. It's afraid of you taking Gabriel alive and forcing him to tell you what the key unlocks. I believe it's counting on one of two probable outcomes. In one outcome, you die on that train. In another outcome, you kill Gabriel. In both cases, the Entity wins.
Ethan Hunt : Luther, I think you're right.
Luther Stickell : Get the key, get off the train, ALIVE, do NOT kill Gabriel. And do not, I repeat, do NOT alter the plan.

Benji Dunn : A self-aware, self-learning, truth-eating digital parasite infesting all cyberspace. Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.
Luther Stickell : And the two halves of this key just might provide the means of controlling this Entity.
Benji Dunn : Meaning every government on the planet would kill us just to get that key.
Luther Stickell : Including our own.
Ethan Hunt : Exactly.
Benji Dunn : Putting us on an unsanctioned mission which has gone rogue before it even started.
Luther Stickell : Meaning this very conversation is technically an act of treason.
Benji Dunn : Or as we like to call it, Monday.
Luther Stickell : So what's the play?
Ethan Hunt : A buyer's coming in on flight 746 from Amsterdam for a 30-minutes layover, at which time he is hoping to purchase that half of the key.
Benji Dunn : [Ethan gives Benji the key] And it stands to reason the buyer will have the other half of the key somewhere on their person.
Luther Stickell : Being the only way to authenticate our half.
Benji Dunn : So how do we identify the buyer.
Ethan Hunt : [Ethan takes out an ashtray-shaped Geiger counter] This Geiger counter will detect a radiological signature of the dragon's egg embed in the buyer's key.
[Ethan takes out an sunglasses]
Ethan Hunt : The augmented-reality overlay in these glasses will lead us to it.
Benji Dunn : [Benji puts the sunglasses] Oh, that's very clever.
[Benji takes out the sunglasses]
Benji Dunn : So, you ID the buyer, pick his pockets, Bob's your uncle.
Ethan Hunt : No.
Benji Dunn : No. Of course not.
Ethan Hunt : The complete key is of no value if we don't know what it unlocks.
Luther Stickell : So you're going to sell the buyer our half of the key.
Benji Dunn : While we figure out the buyer's connecting flight and book you seat on that plane.
Luther Stickell : [Benji gives Luher the key] So you can follow the key wherever it goes.
Benji Dunn : Which you hope is into the hands of someone who know what it unlocks.
Ethan Hunt : Precisely. Finding the completed key is only the beginning

Ethan Hunt : We can't be sure anything is real outside of this very conversation. None of you should be here.
Ilsa Faust : Ethan..
Ethan Hunt : No. You don't know Gabriel. I do. It's not the killing he enjoys. It's the suffering it causes. And he knows the best way to get to me is trought all of you. And if Gabriel knows me...
Luther Stickell : The Entity knows.
Ethan Hunt : There's a reason he wants me here. There's... There's a reason he wants you here. It wants you here.
Benji Dunn : Who or what is the most important thing to you?
Ethan Hunt : No. You have to go. You all have to go.
Benji Dunn : Ethan, what if it wants us to leave?
Luther Stickell : Like you made us leave the airport.
Ilsa Faust : And what if it wants you alone at the party tonight?
Ethan Hunt : Then I go alone. At least I don't have all of you to worry about.
Ilsa Faust : This is exactly why I didn't want to tell you.
Luther Stickell : Ethan, you're playing four-dimensional chess with an algoritm.
Benji Dunn : The Entity knows who we are. Any move we make, it's probably considered it. Anything we do, we have to assume that it's counting on us to do it.
Luther Stickell : If you want to beat this thing, you have to start thinking like it. Cold, logical, unemotional.
Ilsa Faust : If that key really does grant control of the Entity, Gabriel is the last person on Earth who should have it.
Luther Stickell : She's right, Ethan. Gabriel cannot have that key. And none of our lives can matter more than this mission.
Ethan Hunt : I don't accept that.
-
Luther Stickell : Without a team, your life won't be measured in years, or even months...
Benji Dunn : It'll be measured in hours.
-
Ethan Hunt : No, it can'be.
Benji Dunn : What is it?
Ethan Hunt : Luther, Benji. Abort. Get out.
Luther Stickell : Where do we rendezvous
Ethan Hunt : We don't! This mission is terminated. Get out now.
-
Benji Dunn : [taking a laptop] All right. We know Grace has one half of the key. We also know she's gonna be at the Ducale at midnight.
[leaving the laptop in a table]
Benji Dunn : And now we have a pretty good idea as to who will be waiting for her there. The event is being hosted by none other than our favorite international arms trafficker and black marketeer, Alana Mitsopolis.
Ilsa Faust : The White Widow.
Benji Dunn : Does she know who actually are does or she still think you're the notorius mass murder John Lark?
Ethan Hunt : Who says I'm not?
Luther Stickell : Didn't she put a price on your head in Paris?
Ilsa Faust : She did indeed. She and Ethan, they worked out. You never tell me how.
Ethan Hunt : Can we continue, please?
-
Luther Stickell : You saw him, didn't you?
Ethan Hunt : I wasn't sure.
Benji Dunn : Well, who is he?
[a flashback is shown where Gabriel kills Marie in front of Ethan's eyes]
Ethan Hunt : Someone I trough... died a long time ago. In another life. Before the IMF. Before I was offered the Choice. And in a very real sense, he made me who I am today.
