[ElectricBoogaloo]

Felix: Everyone wants to believe they'd be the hero, that they'd join the Resistance, try to kill Hitler. It's such fucking bull shit. It's obedience, not resistance. That's the glue of every country, every army, every religion in the world.

Kang-Dae: This kind of transaction happens every day.

Ina: I knew that thing was good for something.

Diego. You won't believe it til you see it with you own eyes. She's double jointed. Blows the candles out on a cupcake stuck in her own ass. Yeah, she's a real artist.

Will: He's running with the new mafia in Englewood.
Diego: What happened to the old mafia? I miss them.

Actor: Art is like religion. For the believers, it's everything. To anyone else, it's just a pile of stinking bull shit.

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Bug: Where's Mike?
Nomi: It's me. I'm Mike.
Bug: Oh, shit. Fuck. Right, totally forgot. I'm a fucking idiot. Of course it's you, buddy! Course it's you. Not you like the old you. Like a new hot version of you. Shit, Mike. You're a total fox! I would do you! I would. I would totally - I mean, not like, not in a degrading way like that sounded, but total compliment.

Nomi: A ragemaster? That's NSA grade.
Bug: Serious hard on when that showed up.

Neets: Is all of this equipment illegal?
Bug: Well, with this kind of technology, legality is a bit of a moving target.
Nomi: I figure justice is as justice does. If the government can use this shit to spy on us, why shouldn't we be able to spy on them?
Bug: Missed you, buddy.

Riley: What if something terrible happens if I go back?
Capheus: What if something wonderful happens?

Joaquin: I want to know what I did wrong and what [Lito] did right, that's all.

Lito: My bodyguard. I'm feeling very Whitney Houston right now.

Nomi: I still can't believe how you're just taking this all in stride. If someone told me they were hearing other people's voices in their heads, I'd be sure they slipped off their medication.
Grace: Child of the 60s. If you didn't hear voices at least once, you were doing something wrong.

Diego: You sure you got the right kid? I've never seen him with your crew.
Deshawn: That's the point. He's an eye. You're not supposed to see him but he sees you. Like the man says - when you look into the ghetto, the ghetto looks back at you.

Will: No? What is it then?
Lincoln: Commerce.

Kala: At least you're wearing clothes.

Gunnar: You've had a lot of shows. Doing well.
Riley: Oh, it's nothing. Just playing records for drunk people trying to get laid.
Gunnar: Playing Beethoven's the same, you know. The people are mostly too old and tired to bother with the getting laid part.

Neets: I sense a costume opportunity.

[Neets uses a crowbar to open the door to Metzger's apartment]
Neets: Wow, it worked!
Nomi: You read that in a book?
Neets: The power of literature. Do you know what else I read in a Lee Child book? That you can use the crowbar as an alarm. So if anyone pushes the door, we'll hear it.
Nomi: We make such a good team.
Neets: Maybe Bug's right and we should become a crime fighting dynamic duo.
Nomi: I think we already are.

Neets: Zombie making sure does pay well.

Nomi: This is really weird. There's almost nothing personal. This guy's about as interesting as a mouthful of sawdust. He doesn't even have any porn stashed away.
Neets: No porn? He is weird.

[Neets picks up a photo]

Prisoner: I know people like you. You think you're better than the rest of us.
Sun: Not better or worse. Just different.
Prisoner: You've got a smart mouth.
Sun: Only if one assumes that a master's in economics constitutes a smart mouth, as opposed to educated. Many educated people are quite stupid and many stupid people like to start fights for no good reason on a truly beautiful day.

Capheus: What do you want?
Gang member: Come on, hero. What does every person on this planet want whose life has been fucked up by another person? What the fuck do you think we want?

Diego: If this is an episode of CSI, I'm hooked.

Nomi: BPO, the Biologic Preservation Organization. "A multinational research group studying the human genome in the search for positive and consequential mutations."
Neets: Well that doesn't sound sinister at all.

Will: A lot of that stuff is illegal.
Nomi: So is using your father's clearance code to access federal security information.

Neets: You've having a conversation with a cop in Chicago right now?
Nomi: Yeah, I guess I am.
Neets: Cool. Facetime without a phone.

Nomi: Are you crazy?
Capheus: I saw this in Hard Target. Jean-Claude attacked when everyone thought he was going to run.

Actress: A man must never be judged by the length of his gun or the size of his fortune.

Jonas: Angelica didn't believe in fault. She said it was the present understood by people looking backward. We have to look forward.

Jonas: I remember what it was like to first share someone's every thought and emotion. I was in love with Angelica from the moment our eyes touched.
Yrsa: Love inside a cluster is pathological.
Jonas: Angelica believed a sensate experiences love in its purest form.
Yrsa: Love inside a cluster is the worst kind of narcissism.

Hernando: There's a line in your film, The Passion of the Sinner, that always makes me think of this museum. "My heart is not a clock." Love is not something we wind up, something we set or control. Love is just like art - a force that comes into our lives without any rules, expectations, or limitations, and and every time I hear that line, I am reminded that love, like art must always be free.

Kang-Dae: I have not slept since you came [to prison].
Sun: I've never slept so well.

Lito: "You fuck with art," [Hernando] says, "you'll get fucked by art."

Nomi: At a certain point, I realized there's a huge difference between what we work for and what we live for.

Nomi: The real violence, the violence that I realized was unforgivable, is the violence that we do to ourselves, when we're too afraid to be who we really are.

Capheus: Do you think other animals waste as much time as us wishing for things they know they'll never get?

Riley: Death doesn't let you say goodbye. It just carves holes in your life, in your future, in your heart.

Will: One beer, [my dad]'s hammering the world into two different sides - Bears or Packers, us or them.

Will: When you said that we're not like them, did you mean we're not human?
Jonas: What is human? An ability to reason? To imagine? To love or grieve? If so, we are more human than any human ever will be.

Capheus: Jean-Claude is the Fred Astaire of martial arts.

Steiner: Look at this [bag of diamonds]. Would any of you suck cocks for this?
Guy: Sure.
Steiner: That's why you and cock sucking Felix and Wolfie are all fucking idiots.

Riley: Getting stoned in your tuxes like it's 1985.

Bug: Feds are funny, you know. They spend all that money protecting things that nobody cares about. Then they leave the real information lying around like a Post-it note on a refrigerator. For instance, when they confiscate illegal electronic equipment, it's inventoried to a site that's like a shopping list to a guy like me.

Sun: Call me bitch one more time.

Doctor: What name should I use?
Wolfgang: Conan.
Doctor: Is that a first name or a last name?
Wolfgang: Yes.

Jela: I know you'd come back. Van Damme always comes back.

Therapist: Why do you keep looking out the window, Will? You like the snow? You know, for some people, snow brings on a very specific feeling. Uh, some love it. It feels clean and pure, like a fresh start or a beginning. For others, it's frightening. Cold and silent and isolating. What are you thinking about when you look at the snow?
Will: That I'm gonna have to shovel it.

Will: When did I get expensive taste?
Nomi: When I got access to Metzger's credit cards.

Kala: This was your plan?
Wolfgang: How was I supposed to know he'd be wearing a bulletproof vest? Who wears a bulletproof vest in real life?

Nomi: Whispers is going to get there first. He's already told security to be looking for you. You need a distraction. Stop the car. Engine's in the back. Oil line's along the driver's side. Pop the trunk. Find the oil line. Break it.
Will: It'll destroy the car.
Nomi: I know. It was Amanita's idea. It's why we picked this car. Men cannot stand to see a beautiful car in trouble. It's some kind of primal instinct. Look at you, you're hesitating.
Will: It's a really nice car.
Nomi: See?

Will: Shit, four guards.
Sun: Is that all?

Will: Do I know you?
Lito: Yeah. We had sex.

Will: Shit. Keys. Keys, keys, keys, keys. There's no keys.
Capheus: This is not a problem.

Well thank you  Electric Boogaloo. That was quite the posting of very good and memorable quotes. 

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Amanita's bookstore coworker: I never really pictured you as one those people that believes in all this psychic stuff.
Neets: Oh, my mom's always been into it.
ABC: Well, we become our parents.
Neets: First scary thought of the day.
[door opens]
Neets: And first scary face. Agent Bendix. What an unpleasant surprise.
Bendix: Amanita Caplan.
Neets: Shall I fill in my answers now? I don't know. I'm not sure. I don't recall. And Australia.
Bendix: The problem is I don't believe you.
Neets: Well, I believe the rich should pay more taxes, which means believing in something doesn't make it so.

Neets: Nomi said you would still be illegally reading our texts.
Bendix: It's not illegal if you're a wanted felon.
Neets: But I am not a wanted felon and since you don't have her phone number, that must mean you've been illegally reading my texts.
Bendix: It is a crime to assist a felon.
Neets: How would you know I was assisting unless you yourself were committing a felony?

Capheus: Faces change, you know? But not the heart.
Jela: Speaking of faces I must say, you're looking a little different these days.
Capheus: New barbershop.

Student: Is this art, Mr. Fuentes?
Hernando: Is it art, Mr. Valles? What do you think? Why don't you tell us what you see?
Student: Looks like shit-packer porn.
Hernando: "Shit-packer porn." That is very interesting. Yeah. 'Cause this is where the relationship between subject and object reverses. The proverbial shoe shifting to the other foot. And what was seen now reveals the seer. Because the eyes of the beholder find not just beauty where they want, but also shallowness, ugliness, confusion prejudice. Which is to say the beholder will always see what they want to see, suggesting that what you, Mr. Valles, want to see is in fact shit-packer porn. Whereas someone else someone with a set of eyes capable of seeing beyond societal conventions, beyond their defining biases, such a beholder might see an image of two men caught in an act of pleasure. Erotic to be sure, but also vulnerable. Neither aware of the camera. Both of them connected to the moment, to each other. To love. And as I have suggested before in this class art is love made public.

Kala: Rajan, we may be married, but my body is mine. It is not a field of land to be purchased and plowed.

Jela: You're a damn good driver. You are a loyal son. You're even half a decent mechanic, if I'm here to instruct you. However I've known you since you were ten years old. And one thing you're not, Mr. Van Damn, is a genius of martial arts.

Kala: I don't know why I'm here.
Sun: I think we all know how this works by now.
Kala: Do we?

Sun: We exist because of sex. It's not something to be afraid of. It's something to honor. To enjoy.

Rajan: My wife! There aren't words that could make me happier.
Kala: Make love to me.
Rajan: Except for those.

Lito's agent: The audience is not legally entitled to truth.

Lito: Fuck consequences.

Wolfgang's aunt: By killing your uncle, you didn't just out-Hamlet Hamlet.

Felix: Your mother was crazy as cat shit.
Wolfgang: You're awake?
Felix: If I had to hear one more of your confessions, I was going to kill myself.
Wolfgang: Oh, fuck. I missed you so much, brother.
Felix: I need a beer.

Wolfgang: We didn't order this.
Waitress: Compliments of the gentlemen sitting over there.
Felix: Who are they?
Wolfgang: Friends.
Felix: You have friends now? Things have changed, huh?

Volker: I've watched you. All your life. You have greatness in you, Wolfgang. You don't belong in a shitty apartment.
Wolfgang: Are you insulting my home?

Felix: Wolfgang, what the fuck are you on and where can I get some?

Felix: What is this?
Wolfgang: Evil Santa.

Wolfgang: Felix, you better go inside.
Felix: Come on. I can't get shot again. I just came out of the hospital. That would be terrible plotting.

Lito's mom: I always save your clippings. The good, the bad and the inevitable. This wasn't the hard part. And it wasn't the friends thrusting the pictures in my face with their sincerest condolences. I never had so many friends call. Who knew I was so popular? Dear friends, dear colleagues, dear all: Now that my famous movie-star son is here, let me thank each and every one of you for showing me your true colors during this dark and difficult period.

Daniela: My family is nothing like any of this. Every day you tip-toe around, hoping you don't get in a fight. This was probably the best Christmas I have ever had. Is it horrible to think that it's because it had nothing to do with my own family?

This is like reading all the good things I saw in this show. Memories and feelings. Why I love it so much and grateful that it will return one more time. 

Be well

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Dr. Bradley: If you ask someone like Professor Kolovi, a geneticist at University of Chicago, he's likely to have a different opinion.
Neets: I've read his book.
Dr. Bradley: My condolences for that lost time.

Lito: Who am I?
[Jean Valjean: 24601!]
Lito/Capheus/other senseates overlapping: Do you mean where I'm from? What I one day might become? What I do? What I've done? What I dream? Do you mean what you see? What I've seen? What I fear or what I dream? Do you mean who I love? What I've lost? Who am I? I guess who I am is - exactly the same as who you are. Not better than. Not less than. Because there is no one who has been or will ever be exactly the same as either you or me. 

Felix: I'm afraid I might be growing accustomed to a certain lifestyle. You might have to keep murdering gangsters for me.
Wolfgang: There are worse professions.

Fuchs: To be honest with you, Felix, I don't like many people.
Felix: Most people suck.

Bugs: These people are good. And impressively, they might be even more paranoid than I am.

Manendra: There's nothing quite like an attempt on one's life to make one examine one's priorities.

Rajan: Dad, I thought you said you would not make a decision without consulting us.
Manendra: I didn't build this giant pharmaceutical empire by dillydallying.

Manendra: Support is the open secret of any successful marriage.

Kolovi: What couldn't you do if people could read your thoughts? For starters, you couldn't lie.

Kolovi: Now you're testing me, Ms. Keene. Your name is uncommonly familiar. Have you written anything I might've read?
Neets: God, I hope so. That would make this so much cooler.

Will: Your suit says city. And so does your pen and your fucking arrogance.

Gunnar: I gotta look the part, huh?
Riley: Being a smuggler and a spy is about looking the part by not looking the part.
Gunnar: That's too many double negatives for me.

Will: You think you're hunting us? We're coming for you.

Good laugh at that one! 

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Whispers: I underestimated you.
Will: That's okay. I get that a lot.

Fuchs: Would you like to have a drink?
Felix: Sure. [Wolfgang]'ll have a beer, and I'll have... How about this 50-year-old Scotch over there?
Fuchs: No. Just kidding.

Fuchs: Lila is Neapolitan.
Felix: Italian?
Lila: Neapolitan.

Fuchs: Capital exists beyond the auspices of ethics, morals or even law.

Jonas: My new surroundings are less than salubrious.

Jonas: We forget so much more than we remember. Maybe we need to. Maybe that's what makes it bearable.

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Lito as Riley: I saw the terrorist! He's attacking the museum! I saw him!
Police officer: You need to calm down!
Lito as Riley: Don't tell me what to do! What is the world coming to with this meaningless destruction of precious art?

Bug: Whoa! Wow. Wait, so like, your brain is, like, part of a bigger brain and it's all networked and file-sharing and holy shit, Nom. I thought this trans new-body-now-a-hottie thing was cool, but this? This other-secret-species thing. Shit. That's, like, the coolest thing I ever heard. This is capital letters B-I-G. as in Galileo. Time to rethink geocentrism.  I don't think I'm gonna sleep for a week.

Singh: This morning we intercepted an explosive device addressed to your husband.
Kala: Oh, my God!
Rajan: What? The police laughed at it because it was so poorly made. Singh: Nevertheless, the government has insisted to provide your father-in-law's family round-the-clock security.
Kala: For how long?
Rajan: Until such time as god-intoxicated maniacs are not plotting to kill us, Kala. 

Mr. Pasquale: Homes are architectural forms of memory.

Mrs. Cho: The only thing I hate more than rhetorical questions are stupid rhetorical questions.

On the last quote:

Thats a pretty profound statement. If I think of the ppl whom have survived violence, horrors and medical mayhem it leads me to know just how true that comment is. If any of us lived in our past and any bad things that happened to us then we'd be emotionally stunted or not have the courage to move forward with our lives. 

Just loved that one. 

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Bug: I have the solution to your problem.
Nomi: Oh, which one?

Nomi: E-Death is just a rumor.
Bug: It's real. Though I use that word cautiously in this post-Homo sensorium relativity of realities.
Neets: What's E-Death?
Nomi: Supposedly something cooked up by the NSA and CIA.
Bug: It's a redaction protocol. They use it when someone's been renditioned or black-sited and they want zero accountability.
Nomi: Bug-
Bug: I've seen it, buddy. They erase warrants, records, anything that might make one agency trip over another one. They just go poof. And so do you.
Neets: If you can do this, why haven't you?
Bug: I didn't say I could do it, but I just reached out to the guy that can.
Neets: What guy?
Bug: Not just any guy. THE guy.
Neets: Okay, can we stop with the whole pregnant pause-y thing?
Bug: Right. Sorry. Right. Okay. I'll set it....up.

Whispers: I don't expect you to understand me or my work.
Will: Another misunderstood psychopath.

Whispers: [Angelica] believed in what we were doing as much as I did.
Will: Then why did she put a gun in her mouth and blow her brains out?

Manendra: If you don't mind Sanyam, do you understand the kind of the future world these terrorists hope to build with their bombs?
Sanyam: It's not for me to speak for them.
Manendra: Well, somebody should. Somebody should because they themselves obviously can't speak any other language besides violence.
Sanyam: Maybe that was the language that was taught to them.
Manendra: Oh, don't tell me you're one of those liberals who really believes these psychopaths who murder innocent civilians, they themselves are the victims.
Sanyam: No, no, no. I'm one of those silly people who believe that if you kill someone, you should be tried for it, whether you're a psychopath, a policeman or a president.

Sanyam: As a government insider, tell me, since the British left, the structure of power, the distribution of wealth, these things remain almost identical. And sometimes, I ask myself why? Maybe a man as smart as you can finally answer this question for me. 
Manendra: In my humble opinion, Sanyam, societies remain unchanged because the human beings remain unchanged. Not everyone is born to be a great leader, just as not everybody's born to be a cook.
Sanyam: Okay, I see. Well, spending a lifetime in the kitchen learning how to cook was my destiny, just as inheriting a fortune was yours.

Rajan: I don't know about the rest of you, but Kala and I are really beginning to love these family dinners.
Kala: Best part of the week.

Dani: It's the hero's brother.
Lito: Let me guess, the sensitive brother.
Dani: Lifelong bachelor. But at least he doesn't die from AIDS.
Hernando: So he does die.
Dani: Drug overdose.
Hernando: I don't know. It's still a notch up from "serial killer who talks with a soft lisp and wears mascara. "
Lito: You think that's bad? Listen to this. "The Hispanic coke dealer is about to give another kind of blow job when he finally gets the bullet he deserves."

Nomi: You speak Spanish?
Bug: The language of love is the Bug's native tongue.
Neets: I thought that was French.

THE Guy: Hello, Nomi Marks.
Nomi: You know who I am?
THE Guy: We've had our eyes on you.
Nomi: That's kind of cool and kind of creepy.
THE Guy: Yeah, it sounded a little stalkery. Didn't mean it like that.

THE Guy: How many languages do you speak?
Nomi: Seven. And, you know, some shitty French from high school.

THE Guy: If you accept this offer, there may come a day when we ask something of you.
Nomi: What?
THE Guy: Nothing venal, vile or vainglorious. Rather a vital vertex of virtue, valor and virtuosity in the name of veracity.
Neets: Wow. Did you just come up with that yourself?
THE Guy: No. There's an app for it.

Wolfgang: What do you want from me?
Naked Lila: Am I being too subtle?

Sun's teacher: Hope is undiscovered disappointment.

Mun: I was stupid like [Sun's father], too. I was cocky. And then she kicked my ass.
Sun's teacher: She did that a lot.

Kala: We risked so much to get you free, Riley. It seems very dangerous to me, exposing ourselves like this.
Riley: Vincent offered us protection.
Lito: Guys, are we really going to put our lives in the hands of someone like Vincent?
Riley: What do you mean someone like Vincent?
Lito: Someone who -
Capheus: Doesn't like his movies.
Lito: Nah. Nah. Well, I mean, taste in movies says a lot about someone.

Nomi: Your life is either defined by the system or by the way you defy the system.
Lito: Wolfgang?
Wolfgang: Fear never fixed anything.

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Will: Never thought I'd say this, but these [pills] make me miss the heroin.

Sun's teacher: Sometimes, I find [the dog] staring at the gate. I know she's waiting for you.

Puck: Sharp as a bowling ball.

Will: Hey, ask him how he avoids BPO.
Puck: Ask him if you and I can have just a quick fuck.

Riley: [Puck] doesn't trust us either. 
Puck: Can you blame me?
Riley: Why come to the concert?
Puck: What can I say? The dick wants what the dick wants. Sex can be such a good trust-builder.

Riley: I think I just picked up the equivalent of a sensate STD.

Riley: Last time we were here -
Sun: We both felt trapped.
Riley: You were afraid of going to prison.
Sun: Now I miss it. You wanted so badly to see your father.
Riley: And you felt like you were making a terrible mistake.
Sun: We've switched places.
Riley: Which means, in a way, we're in the same place.
Sun: Is there a way out of this?
Riley: Or is this just how life always feels?

Will: You know, you never think about how ubiquitous immigrant food like General Tso's chicken and pepperoni pizza has become-
Riley: Until you realize you're a different human species on the run from an evil organization trying to lobotomize you?
Will: Exactly.

Hoy: I'm not about to be out-trusted by a DJ from Iceland with hair the color of a smurf!

Such an aww moment. You know that's exactly what that dog is doing. Sun's reunion with her dog was such a warm and fuzzy moment. It did her good, it did me good, so I guess in a way I shared that slice of time with her and her feelings.

Such an aww moment. You know that's exactly what that dog is doing. Sun's reunion with her dog was such a warm and fuzzy moment. It did her good, it did me good, so I guess in a way I shared that slice of time with her and her feelings. 

I had a coworker who used to bring her dog to work. Her dog was very friendly and playful so everyone loved him. But every time my coworker left, her dog refused to be distracted by toys or attention from anyone else. He would sit facing the door and just wait for her to come back. When Sun's teacher said her dog stared at the gate, all I could think about was how my coworker's dog used to do the same thing.

Bodhi: I used to wonder if there was something I could do to try to change the world before I understood such thoughts were unskilled. Trying to change the world only leads to suffering. All we can change is ourselves.
Riley: I'm not sure I agree.
Bodhi: I know. That's why I can't help you.
Riley: You weren't sitting in that seat before, were you?
Bodhi: I hope one day we can visit again when your thinking does not reflect their thinking.
Riley: No, please, talk to me. You were at the rave. I don't understand. Why can't I see where you are?
Bodhi: You may feel gravity without knowing how it works. There are forces acting upon every life that remain beyond our control or comprehension.

Grace: Did you see the terrible news?
Neets: We just heard about it.
Dad #1: They always want to blame it on a religion, an ethnic group, or a skin color, but the one thing no one ever wants to say -
Dad #2: It's always a man.
Dad #1: Some fucking dude not getting any.
Dad #3: Violence has a gender.
Nomi: Omigawd, I love your dads.

Grace: I find it fascinating how every generation believes in different things.
Dad #2: We believed in pot. And sex.
Dad #1: We were Black Panthers.
Dad #3: Oh, bad motherfuckers.
Dad #2: Now we cook quinoa.
Grace: Oh, come on now. You all were more interested in pussy than politics.
Dad #2: And what was the nice Jewish girl from Santa Barbara interested in?
Grace: I wanted to end patriarchal control over women's bodies.
Dad #1: "Copulation for a better nation. " By having sex with every homie in Oakland.
Grace: By any means necessary. 

Joaquin: [Lito and Hernando] have changed her.
Dani: They've made me realize that I can't be with an asshole that uses my face as a punching bag.

Joaquin: You want to go again, f*****?
Lito: Only if you want to get your ass kicked by a f*****.
Wolfgang: Again.

Dani: I know this is hard for all three of you to understand, but I have a relationship with these two men that isn't based on threats, or control, or money.
Daniela's father: You're not allowed to be sanctimonious when you're living off a trust fund.

Diego: If he's in your head listening, does that mean he can hear everything I'm saying?
Riley: Yeah.
Diego: So when I say, "Go take a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut, Gorski," he can hear that?

Sun: My father did not commit suicide. He was murdered.
Mun: That is a strong allegation, Ms. Bak.
Sun: It's not an allegation. It is a fact, detective.
Mun: Do you then have evidence to prove it?
Sun: I know what my brother has done. And I do not require you or the law to believe me.
Mun: Yeah? Why?
Sun: Because I have seen your legal system from inside and out. And the last thing I would expect from it is justice.

Mitchell: Since the invention of cities, open, multicultural societies are the places that the world's best and brightest have wanted to go to, while mono-cultural, repressive societies are the places they've wanted to escape from.

Diego: Okay, I'm officially creeped out.

Diego:If you want my professional police opinion, I say there's no way in hell I'd go down there. Especially because if this was a movie, this would be the scene where the funny but annoying sidekick gets whacked.
Riley: He said I have to go alone.
Diego: Well, that solves my problem. I'll be in the car.

Lito: I did a scene like this in Forgive Us Our Trespasses.
Capheus: What happened?
Lito: Everyone died.
Nomi: Not helpful.

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Nomi: I didn't think I could be any more confused by you, but congratulations, you found a way.

Neets: What did [Wolfgang] want?
Nomi: He didn't say, but he doesn't talk much.

Kala: If if he knew it was a trap, why wouldn't he ask us for help?
Riley: Wolfgang?
Sun: Ask for help?
Will: Can't picture it.

Neets: Bug, you are a genius!
Bug: Well, technically, I tend to test in the high 130s, but really, who's counting?

Lila: This city needs a true king. These people are desperate for a leader. I know they will go to their knees for a man like you.
Wolfgang: You don't understand. This is Berlin. These are my people. And we go to our knees for no one. Take your fucking "mai soli" and the three guns Fuchs hired and fuck off.
Lila: I'm going to enjoy scraping you off my shoe like the dog shit you are.
Kala: BRING IT, BITCH!

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Kala's mother: Of course [Kala's friend]'s happy. She has a husband she loves. And both of them together are making a family, which is the most natural thing in the world.
Kala: I'm not saying it's not natural. Though, let us remember that cancer is also natural, so naturalness in itself should not be considered a virtue.

Felix: What happened?
Wolfgang:It's not good.
Felix: When you say "not good," it usually means stuff's going to start blowing up and people will start dying. 

Riley: She was here.
Will: Angelica?
Riley: With Whispers.
Diego: Did you say "Whispers"? We're heading into some creepy house and you're talking about some guy named Whispers? Seriously?
Will: He can wait in the car if he wants.
Diego: I know he's probably saying some shit like I can wait in the car, but I'm a cop. I was just shining a light upon a situation that normal people in their normal lives prefer to avoid.

Diego: Little B and E. Sure. Why not? We're just officers of the law, right?

Diego: That's fucking creepy. So to recap, we got your standard mad scientist lab, apparently abandoned.

Silas: The true measure of a candidate's viability in this city is not measured by polls or numbers. You know that someone is a serious contender by the size of the bounty.
Capheus: There's a bounty on my head?
Silas: There's a bounty on anyone who runs against Mandiba.
Capheus: How serious is it?
Silas: I would say now the price is somewhere between a beating and a kidnapping.

Neets: By the way, Bug, I have to say that is an amazing tux.
Bug: Ebay. Worn by the actual stunt double for Bond, James Bond. From Russia With Love. 

Groomsman: That's a nice rack for a dude.
Sun: Did he say what I think he said?
Nomi: Uh-huh.
Sun: Do you want me to hurt him?
Nomi: Normally, yes, of course. But today is T's big day and I have to be careful because I can't be responsible for anything going wrong.
Groomsman: I read people talk to themselves when they know no one cares what they have to say. Do you think that's true?
Nomi [to Sun]: Maybe just a little.
[Sun bends the groomsman's finger back]

Neets: Good citizens of San Francisco's upper tax bracket, this man, Agent Jeffrey Bendix, has stormed into the middle of this sacred ceremony, violating this important moment for absolutely no other reason than the gratification of his male ego!

Lito: Dani, this is a Hollywood film. I'm sure right now they are meeting with Javier Bardem or Gael Garcia to play Jordi.
Hernando: Oh, yeah. Javier's amazing.

Riley: Why was Jonas there?
Diego: Are you asking me or someone else in your head?
Riley: You.
Diego: That is what we call police work.

Kala: For me, fixing something does not mean shooting someone with a rocket launcher, to which I would like to point out that much of your present trouble is a direct result of this kind of violent choice, so the jury is most definitely still out as to whether that is ever a good solution to anything.

Dani: That [Academy Award]'s real, isn't it?
Kit Wrangler: Oh, this old thing? Twenty-four karat, hon. And because everyone wants to know hell, yes, I did. The minute I got home, dipped him head to toe in lube and took every golden inch up my ass.

Blake Huntington: When I heard you were meeting for this [role], I also screened The Passion of the Sinner.
Lito: Really?
Blake: Yeah, I enjoyed it immensely. I thought it offered real insight on the interdependence of identity by rejecting the standard male narratives of sovereignty.
Hernando: I've said the same thing.
Blake: "And he judged of others by himself, not believing in what he saw, but was convinced that every man had his real, most interesting life under the cover of secrecy and the dark of night. "
Hernando: The Lady and the Dog.
Blake: It is. Iberian Dreams reminds me of Chekhov. It does.
Kit: Please, stop. Please, stop it. Don't poison my script with your fucking literary bullshit.

Hernando: There's nothing more frightening than having a dream come true.

Sun: Will you try to stop me?
Will: Do you want me to stop you?

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Will: What are you doing? That was your idea? To let them know we're here?

Wolfgang: Cars don't blow up like they do on TV.

Joong-Ki: Open the fucking gate right now!
Nomi: Love to, J-Bak. But first, I need you to do something for me.
Joong-Ki: What?
Nomi: Confess to framing your sister and murdering your father, and you'll be free to go.
Joong-Ki: Who who the hell is this?
Nomi: Who are we?
Lito: Justice, motherfucker. And we're coming for you.
Bug: That's from The Root of All Evil. I love that movie.
Lito: Thank you, Bug. Maybe not my best film, but some good lines in it.

Joong-Ki: Are you serious? My sister is the fucking Terminator?

Sense8: Even though no sensate with half a brain should go to a public event like your speech without taking a blocker first, we came.

Puck: I'm not usually the kind of guy who believes in certain types of "happy endings," but for this, I will make an exception. Ladies, try to see this from my perspective. Traditionally, in male narratives when you save the princess, it entitles you to certain rewards. These aren't my rules. This is just standard operating procedure.

Puck: Listen I am a lover, I'm not a fighter. You guys want a sens-orgy that circles the globe, I'm your guy.

Kala: Rajan is involved in some kind of corruption investigation.
Wolfgang: Rajan? Is he being investigated?
Kala: No, his friend.
Wolfgang: Huh. Interesting.
Kala: Why? Why is that interesting?
Wolfgang: Because both of the men in your life are connected to criminals. What does that say about you?
Kala: I'm sure it speaks volumes about my poor choices, my own dishonesty, indecency, and general lack of good character.

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Jonas: "The bonds that bind another person to ourself exist only in our mind." I wonder if Monsier Proust was a sensate. I doubt he was ever handcuffed to a radiator.

Kala: If I were an evil chairman offering an assassin for hire program, I'd want more than one pilot.

Bug: I hate that guy. But I'm kind of glad you didn't stick that rebar through him.

Lito: Have you seen Hernando and Dani?
Nomi: They went with Amanita for croissants.
Lito: Croissants? No, I need protein. No sugar, no starch. No more carbs in the house, please. No more carbs in the house! I'll eat them all!

Rajan: BP-
Will: Oh shit!

Rajan: Who are these people? Have you joined some insane cult?

Kala: So you believe me?
Rajan: Would you, could you, concoct a lie of this extraordinary magnitude? No. Are you and all of these people out there medically insane? I don't think so. So what other choice do I have?

Georges: We've had many kinds of people threaten us in Paris, attack us and our way of life. Our answer has been and will always be the same: vive la résistance. Or like you say in English, fuck off.

Daniela: My tía always said that even assholes are useful for shitting and fucking.

Whispers: Ah, Miss Caplan. Come to play doctors and nurses?
Nita: Is it easy for you to sound like a creepy villain or is it something you have to work at?

Whispers: Who's the sidekick's sidekick?

Whispers: Your desire for shopping is palpable.

Daniela: I know your kind - men that mistake cruelty for strength.

Wolfgang: You're supposed to say, "Trick or treat."
Chairman: Cluster 0808, code FH. F for feral. H for hostile.
Wolfgang: And CH for chairman - and also chickenshit.

Lito: In The Devil Died at Dawn, there was a hostage exchange at a club.
Hernando: It was a bullfighting stadium.
Lito: Was it?
Bug: Oh, yeah. And the bull gored you!

Bodhi: Neutrality in the face of such evil is complicity.

Felix: Herr Fuchs is a firm believer in the moral necessity of revenge and he hopes his gifts will be useful to you against, and I'm quoting, "the Neapolitan bitch." He included your favorite toy - for old time's sake.

Will: Let me guess. This is your "it's hopeless, Will, turn back now" speech.

Will: Nice try, Jonas, but after watching you sip cocktails while we were being tortured, our confidence in your ability to finish this fight is not particularly high.

Lila: Missed you, sexy.
Wolfgang: I don't associate happy thoughts with murder, but I think I'm going to enjoy killing you.

Wolfgang: You're not a revolutionary, just another collaborator.

Felix: If I had to choose a final meal, it would be pizza.

Sun: Again with the hair.
Riley: Puck, it's creepy.
Puck: What? I don't know what you guys are talking about.

Hernando: First I have to admit that the closest I've come to executing a military strategy was gaining tenure at my university.

Hernando: It was close to this very spot that the great poet Virgil allegedly wrote part of his epic poem The Aeneid, which, depending on whether you are from Italy or Greece, is a masterpiece or a knock off. Of course, you all know that Virgil wrote, "Amor vincit omnia!" Love conquers all things. He also wrote the descent into hell is easy but maybe I think I'll skip that part.

Rajan: Can you teach me?
Will as Kala: Okay, first, this isn't a real gun. It's a taser. This is a gun.

Diego: You know I should be in fucking Pensacola, right?

[Felix gets shot]
Felix: Not again!
[Wolfgang picks him up, Felix continues shooting over Wolfgang's shoulder]
Felix: Why do I always have to get shot?

Daniela: So how's your gunshot?

River: The improbably unfolding of recent events have led me to consider that no one thing is one thing only. How people endow what is familiar with new, ever evolving meaning and by doing so, release us from the expected, the familiar, into something unforeseeable. It is in this unfamiliar realm we find new possibilities. It is in the unknown we find hope. A wedding is a celebration which can also be understood as a union of two families and in this case, this union takes on an even deeper significance. And for me, this wedding is proof, proof that for all the differences between us and all the forces that try to divide us, they will never exceed the power of love to unite us.

Nita: We live in a world that distrusts feelings. Over and over, we are reminded that feelings are not as important as reason, that feelings are childish, irresponsible, dangerous. We are taught to ignore them, control or deny them. We barely understand what they are, where they come from, or how they seem to understand us better than we understand ourselves. But I know that feelings matter. Sometimes they're little, like when I smell cinnamon toast and I miss my grandma. And sometimes they are huge, like when I found out my girlfriend shares her thoughts with seven other people around the world. However, if you're lucky - I mean really lucky - a feeling comes along that will change everything.
