Eyal Lavine: We shack up here for a few days, we let things die down, and then we do what we were brought together to do.
Annie Walker: Which is what, exactly?
Eyal Lavine: Exchange briefcases, of course. You want to tell me where yours is?
Annie Walker: It's somewhere safe.
Eyal Lavine: This is somewhere safe. That's why they call it a safe house. Where else is safe?
Annie Walker: It got hot. I had to drop it. So...
Eyal Lavine: That's how they teach you in the CIA?
Annie Walker: Not to get caught with compromising materials? Yeah, it's basic CIA protocol.

Interrogator: I'm going to ask you a series of questions to act as a control sample, OK?
Auggie Anderson: No, it's not OK. [interrogator looks up] You wanted the truth, right?
Interrogator: Just answer the questions, please. Your name is August Anderson?
Auggie Anderson: Yes, but my friends call me Auggie. You can call me August.
Interrogator: Yes or no, please. You were born in Glencoe, Illinois, is that correct?
Auggie Anderson: Yes.
Interrogator: OK, you lost your eyesight while with special forces in Iraq, is that correct?
Auggie Anderson: [sighs] I'm sorry, you'll have to be more specific.
Interrogator: You were in Tikrit.
Auggie Anderson: Yes.
Interrogator: There was an incident, an explosion.
Auggie Anderson: Yes.
Interrogator: And now you're blind.
Auggie Anderson: No, I'm not.
Interrogator: You're not?
Auggie Anderson: [coolly] What does the machine say? [machine registers no change] I spent twelve months down in the farm, I did my SERE training at Fort Bragg and I have *four* mean-ass older brothers. You don't think I know how to lie well enough to beat that thing?
