Solomon Lane
"Your mission, should you *choose* to accept it." I wonder, did you ever choose not to? The end you've always feared is coming. And the blood will be on your hands. The fallout of all your good intentions.

Erica Sloan
You have got to be kidding me.
August Walker
If you want Lane out of prision, this is how it gets done.
Erica Sloan
I wanted Lark to break him out, not Ethan Hunt. I wanted Lark to the exchange, not Ethan Hunt. I wanted Lark to lead us to the plutonium and the apostles.
August Walker
You may still get your chance.
Erica Sloan
Have you forgotten about the corpse we pulled out of the men's room at the Grand Palais?
August Walker
I'm guessing that wasn't Lark. More likely of Lark's recruits.
Erica Sloan
Not according to our intelligence
August Walker
Intelligence gathered by whom?
Erica Sloan
Hunt.
August Walker
You've long held suspicions Lark was an american agent. Someone who knew our every move. Someone who come and go like a ghost.
Erica Sloan
You're suggesting that Hunt is John Lark. You're reaching, Walker. Trying to save your ass. It won't work.
August Walker
Think about it. Would a man as careful as Lark really stick his neck out like that? For a face to face with the widow?
Erica Sloan
He'd send a proxy.
August Walker
A decoy. And if he was really smart, he'd have his lady friend kill that decoy in front of a reliable witness. Me. The dragnet is closing on his terrorist alter ego. So he pays a man to play the part of Lark and has him killed. And under the guise of serving his country...
Erica Sloan
Assume his own secret identity.
August Walker
Free to operate at will with the full support of the US government.
Erica Sloan
Why? Why would Hunt turn?
August Walker
Why did Lane do it? Why did any of his apostoles? They were believers in a cause. And when that cause turned out to be a lie, they turned again their masters. How many times has Hunt's government betrayed him, disavowed him, cast him aside? And how long before a man like that has had enough?
Erica Sloan
That is a serious accusation. Can you prove it?
August Walker
[hands her a phone]
This is the phone we pulled off the dead body at the Grand Palais. I'm guessing it has all the proof you need.

Luther Stickell
In all the years that I've known Ethan he's only been serious about two women. One was his wife.
Ilsa Faust
He's married?
Luther Stickell
No, he was.
Ilsa Faust
Was? What happened to her?
Luther Stickell
Well, she was taken by some people who wanted to get to Ethan. It's OK. He got her back in one piece. Then he quit the game. They were happy for a while. But every time something bad happened in the world Ethan would think: I should have been there. And she would wonder: Who's watching the world while Ethan is watching me? Deep down they both knew that someday, somehow, something truly terrible was going to happen. All because they were together. So...
Ilsa Faust
Where is she now?
Luther Stickell
She's a ghost. Good at it too. Taught her myself. Every now and then she sends up a signal to let Ethan know she's safe. And that keeps him going.
Ilsa Faust
Why are you telling me this?
Luther Stickell
[tearfully]
We're in this mess because Ethan wouldn't let me die. He's a good man. And he cares about you. More than he can admit. That's one more worry than he can handle right now. If you care about him, you should walk away.

Erica Sloan
[to Ethan, voice-over]
Per your request, I'm handing Solomon Lane back to MI6. Through a broker, of course, part of our ongoing arrangement. After what happened in Paris, we prefer to keep a low profile. And that closes your friend's account in British intelligence. I understand now why Hunley believed in you. The world needs the IMF. We need people like you, who care about the one life as much as they care about the millions. That way I never have to.

[quoting from John Lark's manifesto]
"There cannot be peace without first a great suffering. The greater the suffering, the greater the peace."
August Walker
When I wrote those words, I wasn't referring to your peace or Hunt's suffering. The old world order needs dismantling, and we have the tools to dismantle it. All you seem to care about is that Hunt lives to take the blame. That's not anarchy. That's revenge.

Page from "The Destruction of the Current World Order" Manifesto written by John Lark and seen during Ethan Hunt's briefing.
"There has never been peace without first a great suffering, the greater the suffering, the greater the peace. As mankind is drawn to his self-destruction like a moth to the candle, the so-called defenders of peace - the church, the government, the law - work tirelessly to save humanity from itself. But, by averting disaster, they serve to delay a peace that can only come through an inevitable baptism of fire. The suffering I bring you is not the beginning of the end. It is the beginning of a greater mutual understanding through common suffering. It is the first step towards the ultimate brotherhood of man. The suffering I bring you is the bridge to ultimate peace. Today, mankind has been handed the opportunity to escape his destiny, an otherwise inevitable conclusion to a thousand years of intolerance and fear. I call all rationalists who can stand and join in the struggle against the radical theists, all of which fall beneath a common umbrella of ideology. If we were to continue any further we would reach mythology and Aesop's fables. When do we stop? Any belief in a spirituality with no other proof, other than the cravings to project one's self over the rational thinking of the others must be eradicated as it does not only halt progression and development of the human mind and reach, but also hinders it. Here I will emphasize clearly that the judgment upheld against us will be one of human hands, not of a god or other worldly being. Part of the absurd rational is what leads to the obscure justifications, the believers place upon their own disgraceful and belligerent behavior. No. The loss of human life cannot and will not be justified. For this is not the taking of human lives. They are merely puppets, hollow shells that were once human beings. Brainwashed by stories and tales of old, their weak minds have been overpowered by the pressure placed on them by other lifeless puppets. And so, the cycle continues."

Stand by. I'm told we're about to get some additional information. I've just been handed a document from Nils Delbruuk, a nuclear weapons specialist who claims to have built the weapons used in these attacks. I've been asked to read this manifesto in its entirety. "There has never been peace without first a great suffering. The greater the suffering, the greater the peace. As mankind is drawn to his self-destruction like a moth to the candle, the so-called defenders of peace - the church, the government, the law - work tirelessly to save humanity from itself. But, by averting disaster, they serve to delay a peace that can only come through an inevitable baptism of fire. The suffering I bring you is not the beginning of the end.

It's the job. No hard feelings.
Alan Hunley
Accept it, Ethan. You've lost this one. What's done is done.

I can't do that.
Ethan Hunt
You weren't at the Palais to kill Lark.
Ilsa Faust
No.
Ethan Hunt
You were there to protect him.
Ilsa Faust
Yes.
Ethan Hunt
And you killed him to protect me. You wanted Lark to break Lane out. No. You needed him to to break Lane out. Because you have to kill Lane. Who's making you do this? Mig. Why?
Ilsa Faust
After we captured him in London, they tried to bring Lane home trough diplomatic channels. But too many countries want their pound of flesh. A man like that, what he's seen, what he knows about British intelligence, they can't have him talking to a foreign goverment ever.
Ethan Hunt
That's not what I'm asking. Why did they send you?
Ilsa Faust
This is how I prove my loyalty. This is how I come home.
Ethan Hunt
But you were out. You were free.
Ilsa Faust
We are never free. I spent two years undercover with Lane. To them, I'm as much of a threat as he is. I kill him, or I never stop running. Now tell me where he is?
