Sicario Movie Quotes
[last lines]
Alejandro
You should move to a small town where the rule of law still exists. You will not survive here. You are not a wolf. And this is the land of wolves now.

Nothing will make sense to your American ears, and you will doubt everything that we do, but in the end you will understand.

Fausto Alarcon
You think the people that send you here are any different? Who do you think we learned from?
Fausto Alarcon
Your wife... you think she'll be... proud to see what have you become?
Alejandro
Don't forget about my daughter.

Matt
Medellin refers to a time when one group controlled every aspect of the drug trade, providing a measure of order that we could control. And until somebody finds a way to convince 20% of the population to stop snorting and smoking that shit, order's the best we can hope for. And what you saw up there, was Alejandro working toward returning that order.
Kate Macer
Alejandro works for the fucking Colombian Cartel.
Matt
He works for the competition. Alejandro works for anyone who will point him toward the people who made him. Us. Them. Anyone who will turn him loose. So, he can get the person that cut off his wife's head, and threw his daughter into a vat of acid. Yeah. That's what we're dealing with.

[assuring Kate]
Advisors like Matt come in, they stir the pot, they cause the criminals to react and make mistakes. That's how we build cases against the individuals that actually make a difference in this fight. It's when they're nervous, when they stop trusting their crews, when they move their money. These are all opportunities to strike. And that's the purpose of people like Matt.
Dave Jennings
Kate, this isn't something that I dreamed up myself. I don't have the authority to hire advisors, or authorize joint agency missions, or fly agents from Air Force bases. Are you understanding me? These decisions are made far from here, by officials elected to office, not appointed to them. So, if your fear is operating out of bounds, I am telling you, you are not. The boundary's been moved.

Kate Macer
I just tried to have sex with my hitman.
Alejandro
Nah, he's no assassin. He just wanted to know what you know. They're after us, not you.

Title Card
The word Sicario comes from the zealots of Jerusalem, killers who hunted the Romans who invaded their homeland. In Mexico, Sicario means hitman.

What you're doing here is you're giving us the opportunity to shake the tree and create chaos. That's what this is! In the meantime, just sponge everything up you see. Learn! That's why you're here.

Kate Macer
Are we going to Tucson?
Matt
Yeah, you gotta learn how to sleep on a plane. They let me on the base when you need a ride, don't they?
Matt
She's fine.

Fausto Alarcon "El Verdugo". Every day across that border, people are kidnapped or killed by his hand or with his blessing. To find him would be like discovering a vaccine. You understand the value of that?

What's our objective?

Reggie Wayne
They're like caterpillars, like wild beasts. You're losing weight.
Kate Macer
I'm eating.
Reggie Wayne
Look at you. What is it, one T-shirt a week? At least work on your personal hygiene, huh?
Kate Macer
You sound like my mother.
Reggie Wayne
Maybe I *am* your mother. First we work on personal hygiene, then we move on to the shopping.

Reggie Wayne
Those are Special Ops. Are we going in on this?
Matt
Nah. You guys aren't really dressed for it.
Reggie Wayne
That why you didn't fuckin' tell us?
Matt
Yeah, well, you two went cryin' to Daddy yesterday, and we don't want Daddy to know everything.
Kate Macer
Oh, give me a fucking break.
Matt
All right, we'll get you some extra gear.
Kate Macer
We have tac gear in the car.
Matt
All right. Good. You guys will hang back when we get there, okay?
Kate Macer
Then why are we going?
Matt
'Cause CIA can't operate within U.S. borders without a domestic agency attached. I told you you'd be useful.
Kate Macer
So, that's it. That's why I'm here.
Matt
Yeah, that's it. That's why you're here. Hey, we find any drugs, you guys get to confiscate them. It's gonna be a big day.
Kate Macer
Un-fuckin' real!

A'right we good. Just don't keep us in the dark.
Alejandro
You afraid of the dark?
🧡

🥱
Reggie Wayne
There's "in the dark" and there's the way you're treating us. I want to know the objective or I walk, period.
Matt
Then go. I didn't ask you to be here.
[pointing to Kate]
Matt
She did.
Kate Macer
I walk, too.
Matt
What do you wanna know?
Reggie Wayne
Everything.
Matt
Fuckin' lawyers. All right. Guillermo told us about a tunnel east of Nogales, near Sasabe. Now we're tryin' to find out what areas near there migrants avoid so we can find the tunnel. That better?
Reggie Wayne
And Guillermo is...
Kate Macer
And Guillermo, he just told you where the drug tunnel is? He just told you?
Matt
Guillermo didn't have any other options. We send him back across the border, he's a dead man. Now he gets to spend the next 30 years in an American prison in relative safety.
Reggie Wayne
Just tell us the truth, man.
Matt
We are gonna make enough noise that Manuel Diaz is called back to Mexico to see his boss. That's the truth.
Reggie Wayne
And then?
Matt
And then we know where his boss is.
🧡
👏

🤔
🥱
Kate Macer
Is he CIA? Are you?
Matt
He's a DOD advisor, just like me.
Kate Macer
No, he's not.
Matt
Just pay attention to Alejandro, and if he says to do something, just do it.
Kate Macer
I'm not authorized to follow orders from Alejandro! Especially in Mexico!
Matt
Fine. Then stay here. But you don't want to, do you?
Kate Macer
I just wanna know what I'm getting into.
Matt
Kate, you volunteered to get on this train because you... you know you're doing nothing in Phoenix. Yeah, you're just sweeping up a fucking mess. In six months, every single house you raid will be rigged with explosives. Do you want to find the guys responsible? Yes or no?
Matt
Yes?
Matt
This is where we start.

Dave Jennings
She's been leading our kidnap response team for three years. We put her through the grinder since she got here, and she hasn't blinked. She's in the front line. Nobody's gonna be happier than Kate to see these guys go down.
Burnett
So, she's a thumper.
Dave Jennings
Today was her fifth O.I.S.
Matt
Five and 0, not bad for a rookie. She never worked cases?
Dave Jennings
Been kicking doors since day one.
Matt
I like her already. What about the partner? He seen any action?
Phil Coopers
He's only been with us 18 months.
Matt
What's his background?
Dave Jennings
He's a sharp kid. ROTC scholarship to Maryland, did a tour in Iraq, got his law degree from UNC. He's green, but he's good.
Matt
No lawyers on this train. Just give me the girl.
🧡

Dave Jennings
Kate, you must volunteer for an inter-agency task force. Think very hard before you respond. You wanna be a part of this?
Kate Macer
Do we get an opportunity at the men responsible for today?
Matt
The men who were really responsible for today, yeah.
Kate Macer
I'll volunteer.
🧡

Matt
Hey, Kate, you got any friends at Phoenix SWAT?
Kate Macer
Uh, yeah, we use 'em in breaches all the time.
Matt
Good, 'cause we're gonna need their help.
Kate Macer
What for?
Matt
We are gonna fuck with Manuel Diaz's wallet.
🧡
👏
🥺

🥱
Matt
You didn't think we'd get you here, did you?
Guillermo
No hablo Ingles.
Matt
No hablo Ingles? I love it when they "no hablo Ingles." You know, I brought an old buddy of yours. I bet you hablo to him.

Dave Jennings
DOJ wants advisors that focus on cartels involved in pursuing Mr. Diaz. This is Matt Graver. He'll be leading the team.
Kate Macer
Isn't this Phoenix Homicide now?
Matt
No, we're expanding the scope of the investigation a bit.
Phil Coopers
You'll act as a liaison.
Kate Macer
What does that mean?
Dave Jennings
They need an agent with tactical experience, like you.
Burnett
State Department is pulling an agent from the field that specializes in responding to escalated cartel activity. You'll be part of the team. You'll meet up with them at Luke, uh, tomorrow?
Matt
Day after. Early.
Kate Macer
Air Force Base?
Matt
Yeah, we're gonna go see Guillermo.
Kate Macer
Diaz's brother?
Matt
That's the one.

[Kate seems nervous during a mission into Mexico]
Nothing will happen here. They try anything, it will be at the border. Keep an eye out for the State Police. They're not always the good guys.

Kate Macer
Nutty? Yeah, yeah, that was fucking illegal. You wanna start a war? You're a fucking spook! And-and him! I mean, who the fuck is that?
Matt
Told you, you could stay here.
Kate Macer
Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ, you just spray bullets at... and, yeah, sure, there's just fucking civilians everywhere. I'm not a soldier! This is not what I do!
Matt
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Look, don't sell yourself short, all right? The reason Reggie's home is I know he wasn't ready for this. But he better get ready real quick because this is the future, Kate! Juarez is what happens when they dig in.

Reggie Wayne
You know, I used to see guys like Matt in Iraq. Gotta be careful around these people. CIA's not supposed to work this side of the fence.
Kate Macer
He's a DOD advisor.
Reggie Wayne
You really believe that? You need somebody watching your six, 'cause I promise you they aren't.
Kate Macer
You know, we're not even scratching the surface doing what we're doing. And they are.
Reggie Wayne
Mm. Well, you sure picked the motherfuckers to show us.

Kate Macer
Have you ever been over there?
Alejandro
I worked in Juarez.
Kate Macer
For the DEA?
Alejandro
No.
Kate Macer
For who?
Alejandro
For Mexico. I was a prosecutor.
Kate Macer
You're not American?
Alejandro
No.
Kate Macer
Who do you work for now?
Alejandro
Oh, I go where I'm sent.
Kate Macer
Where were you sent from?
Alejandro
Cartagena.
Kate Macer
Colombia.

Reggie Wayne
[Kate learns why she was assigned to the task force]
Kate, come on. Fuck these people, man. They've been using us from the beginning. We don't have to do this.
Kate Macer
I need to know what they used us for.
Reggie Wayne
Doesn't matter what!
Kate Macer
Yes, it does!
Reggie Wayne
I say we walk. We walk and make them eat this whole fucked-up operation.
Kate Macer
No. I have to know.

Burnett
How familiar are you with Manuel Diaz's operation?
Kate Macer
His company, Sun Oasis, has 80 or so foreclosure properties. He has other legitimate businesses. Um... but he's rumored to be linked with one of the Mexican cartels.
Burnett
Manuel Diaz works for the Sonora Cartel. He's most likely their senior member in the United States.
Matt
What do you know about his brother?
Kate Macer
I wasn't aware he had one.
Matt
Guillermo. His brother's name is Guillermo. Do you know anything about his cousin?
Kate Macer
I didn't know he had one of those, either. None of that is in his file.
Burnett
His cousin is Fausto Alarcon.
Kate Macer
I don't know who that is.
Matt
No one does. He's off the grid.
Burnett
He's number three in the Sonora Cartel.
Kate Macer
This is not my department, sir. This is...
Burnett
Like I said, Agent Macer doesn't work narcotics. She runs a kidnap response team.
Matt
Are you married?
Kate Macer
Am I married?
Matt
Do you have a husband?
Kate Macer
Divorced.
Matt
Kids?
Kate Macer
No. Anything else?
Phil Coopers
No. Thanks, Kate. If you could wait outside, please.

Alejandro
Every night you have families killed. And yet, here you dine. Tonight should be no different.
Fausto Alarcon
Do you think the people that sent you here are any different? Who do you think we learned it from? The grieving lawyer? Your wife, do you think she'd be proud of what you'd become?
Alejandro
Don't forget about my daughter.
Fausto Alarcon
Not in front of my boys.
Alejandro
Time to meet God.
