Quotes 

• Geraldine Maltby : So what's your plan? Blow my brains out for my ten-year-old niece to find?

  Harry Pearce : No, I simply want to offer you a way out.

  [He puts a small envelope on the table labeled "A Way Out."] 

  Harry Pearce : This came from you, I take it. What is it?

  Geraldine Maltby : It's new. Perforates the small bowel over six hours or so, causing irreversible hemorrhaging. Leaves no trace.

  Harry Pearce : How clever.

  Geraldine Maltby : You're madder than you look. Shoot me or get out, I'm not taking that.

  Harry Pearce : I was afraid that would be your answer. That's why I've taken the decision out of your hands. It's not your pub lunch that's making you queasy.

  [He removes a small, empty plastic bag from the envelope] 

  Harry Pearce : I had the rib of beef, too.

  Geraldine Maltby : Tell me you're lying, Harry. Please.

  Harry Pearce : Tell me you didn't betray your country.

  [Geraldine hurriedly starts dialing her mobile] 

  Harry Pearce : It's been four hours already, Geraldine. You can spend the last two in a hospital bed, but if I were you, I'd go and play with that beautiful niece of yours.

• Geraldine Maltby : You're a lone maniac. Even if you had something, you could never make it stick.

  Harry Pearce : That's the advantage of being a lone maniac. I don't need to make it stick.
