String: You haven't got a chance, Kincaid. Turn that bird around!
Isela: Maybe you should listen to him.
Kincaid: You know what's gonna happen if we give it up?
Isela: It is better than being dead.
Kincaid: That's the same thing. (edit)
(Kincaid flies in late to meet String at a botched drug deal)
String: Pretty impressive.
Kincaid: I would've given you a demonstration, I just didn't wanna wake the neighbors!
String: How thoughtful. Now what's this all about?
Kincaid: Remember that I told you that ripoffs are an occupational hazard in this profession?
String: You've got the money, he's got the dope.
Kincaid: But you've got that beautiful bird!
String: And you'll have a hell of a time taking her. (edit)
Archangel: That damn war. We didn't know who our enemy was, didn't know who our friends were, now we don't even know who our children are! (edit)
Hawke: (to Kincaid) Give it up! You've seen what this ship can do. (edit)
