[talking to Marko on the phone]
I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

A friend gave this to me. It's Albanian. You mind translating it?
Bryan
You don't remember me? We spoke on the phone two days ago. I told you I would find you.

You either give me what I need or this switch will stay on until they turn the power off for lack of payment on the bill.

Sam
The specialty of the groups coming out of this area is trafficking in women.
Bryan Mills
Keep going.
Sam
Okay. Their previous MO was to offer women from the emerging East-European countries like Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria jobs in the west as maids and nannies. Once they smuggled them in, they'd addict them to drugs and turn them into prostitutes. Lately, however, they've decided that it's more economical just to kidnap traveling young women. Saves on transportation costs.
Bryan Mills
What else?
Sam
Based on what they know about the way these groups operate, our analyst says you have a ninety-six hour window from the time she was grabbed.
Bryan Mills
To what?
Sam
To never finding her.

Jean Claude
Just like the old days.
Bryan
Would you have it any other way?
Jean Claude
Between you and me, no. But now that I sit behind a desk, the world looks different.
Bryan
You mean it looks boring.
Jean Claude
I mean different. Okay, a little boring. But is being retired any more interesting?
Bryan
It wasn't until my daughter disappeared in Paris yesterday. She and her friend were marked by a spotter at the airport. Albanians took her.
Jean Claude
How do you know this?
Bryan
I'm retired, not dead.
Jean Claude
And I assume you don't want to go to the police.
Bryan
I was told I have 96 hours. That was sixteen hours ago.
Jean Claude
Okay, first we should find the spotter.
Bryan
I found him. He's dead.
Jean Claude
You found him that way?
[Bryan stays silent]
Jean Claude
Bryan, you cannot just run around, tearing down Paris.
Bryan
Jean Claude, I will tear down the Eiffel Tower if I have to.

You come to this country, take advantage of the system and think because we are tolerant that we are weak and helpless. Your arrogance offends me. And for that the rate just went up 10%.

[after Jean Claude tries to shoot him]
That is what happens when you sit behind a desk. You forget things, like the weight in the hand of a gun that's loaded and one that's not.
[Bryan pulls his gun and shoots Isabelle in the arm]
Jean Claude
Isabelle!
[Jean-Claude turns and shouts at Bryan in French]
Jean Claude
You asshole!
Bryan Mills
It's a flesh wound. But if you don't get me what I need, the last thing you'll see before I make your children orphans is the bullet I put between her eyes!

[to Marko, while preparing him for torture]
You know, we used to outsource this kind of thing. But what we found was the countries we outsourced to had unreliable power grids. Very Third World. You'd turn on a switch - power wouldn't come on, and then tempers would get short. People would resort to pulling fingernails. Acid drips on bare skin. The whole exercise would become counterproductive. But here, the power's stable. Here, there's a nice even flow. Here, you can flip a switch and the power stays on all day. Where is she?

I don't think a seventeen-year-old should be traveling alone.
Kim
I'm not gonna be alone.
Bryan Mills
Two seventeen-year-olds.
Kim
Amanda's nineteen!
Bryan Mills
How about this? How about if I go along? You won't even know I'm there. I'm very good at being invisible.
Lenore
As you so amply demonstrated for most of her life.

Bryan Mills

Lenore
You sacrificed our marriage to the service of the country, you've made a mess of your life in the service of your country, can't you sacrifice a little one time for your own daughter?
Bryan Mills
I would sacrifice anything for her.
