[Jimmy Ford shows Nathan a map outlining their plan. Dissolve to Leverage HQ where the same data is rendered on Hardison's screens]
Nathan Ford : [pointing out locations] First Boston Independent, State Street branch of the Boston Bank, Commonwealth Loan and Securities. Now...
[Nathan walks over to the desk with Hardison, Sophie, and Eliot]
Parker : [Parker's at the screens] First Independent's got a Glenn-Reeder alarm system, series F-900. Two guards at the front...
Parker : [laughing] ... one guard in the back. Cameras record, *not monitored*. Daily turnover: two million. State Street?: mostly commercial papers and loans, but they do have bearer bonds in a basement lockdown room, just takes a key and a retinal scanner. Commonwealth: they...
Parker : [snickers] their alarm system's a holdover from the '70s. but...
Parker : [laughs] but it's...
[Parker notices everyone is staring at her]
Parker : [looks down at her clothes] What?
Parker : [suddenly self-conscious and hurt] What do you guys do on *your* weekends?
[Parker walks off]
Eliot Spencer : There's something wrong with you.
Sophie Devereaux : So, which one's he gonna hit?
[back with Jimmy Ford]
Nathan Ford : None of them?
Jimmy Ford : None of them. But, see, since we control the precinct alarm system, the cops are gonna think they're being robbed. Now, think of this, Nathan: three banks being robbed *at the same time*. They're gonna think it's armageddon. Every cop in town is gonna be headin' to those three banks.
Nathan Ford : Yeah, and away from...?
Pieter : Mm-hmm.
[at Leverage]
Sophie Devereaux : Away from what?
Nathan Ford : I don't know. He won't tell me. Yet! He won't tell me *yet*.
Eliot Spencer : Do you realize how many banks there are south of the precinct?
Parker : [quickly] 67.

Nathan Ford : What is Jimmy's game?
Eliot Spencer : Well, I would imagine he has a chess board set up in the back room. Looks a lot like yours.
Nathan Ford : No, dad doesn't like chess. His game's three-card Monte. Just keep the cards moving. Don't show you the queen until he wants you to see the queen.
Sophie Devereaux : All right, so we don't have enough information to run a con on this guy. Not yet, anyways. So, um, why don't we just sit this one out?
Nathan Ford : Oh, no, no. No, no, we're gonna keep at this. We're gonna gather information.
Sophie Devereaux : Let me be a bit clearer: why don't you sit this one out?
Nathan Ford : Look, you want us to go after the bad guys, we're gonna go after the bad guys, and we're gonna go after them hard!
Sophie Devereaux : Yeah, right. I said "Let's go after the bad guys", but not Jimmy Ford. You honestly think that you can put your own father behind bars?
Nathan Ford : You got to stop looking at him as my father. He's a mark like any other mark. He's hurting people. We can do this. It's what's we do. It's our job to go after the bad guys.
Sophie Devereaux : It's not your job to take down your own father.
Nathan Ford : No. It's my pleasure.

Sophie Devereaux : They're gonna kill Hardison.
Alec Hardison : They're gonna kill who? No, they ain't! I bet you they ain't! Nate, you better stall!
Alec Hardison : Whoa, wait -- wait a minute. Look my only way out is the front door. Are they coming through the front door?
Nathan Ford : I don't know.
Alec Hardison : What you mean you don't know? You better say something! I swear on my mamma I will blow a hole through your bedroom and Spider-Man out the side of this building! Tell me something!

Sophie Devereaux : Eliot! Come on, make it snappy.
[He comes over to start unlocking her hands]
Sophie Devereaux : Being handcuffed in a police station is a recurring bloody nightmare of mine!
