" Detective Stanwick jumped to conclusions a little rapidly." "And although we appreciate his efforts, some, uh, incorrect assumptions were made." "Cut to the chase, boys." "You're going to release me, why not just do it?" " There are some... formalities." " Sit down." "You have the sincere apologies of both myself and my colleagues." "You don't want me to press charges." "That would be the most favourable outcome, yes." "Detective Stanwick has two children who are about to begin college." "The fact is, the loss of his income would mean that they would lose their chance at a good education and, you know, become a burden on society." "Maybe they could work for you, Detective Ryder." "That way they'd still have a job and be a burden on society." "Ahem." "My, uh, suggestion would be that you take the opportunity to walk the fuck out of here before Detective Stanwick changes his mind and you leave here in a bag." "A little privacy, gentlemen?"

"And for a change, I'm going to deliberately" " break one of the rules." " No!" "Yes, Carla." "I'm going to open the package." " So, what have we got?" " Here we are." "520 horsepower at 6300 rpm." "That means from 0 to 100 in 3 seconds, maybe 3.1." "Then I've installed 16 speakers in Harman Kardon..." "it's just over 300 kph." "Whatever." "Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, look at those rims."

"My uncle took the fall for killing a guy." "Then Smith had my uncle killed in jail." "Because my father refused to sell him one final building that he wanted to tear down." " That's your uncle's hand." " Yes." "The problem Smith had was getting proof of my uncle's death to my father." "That's why they hired you." "The prison authorities were trying to keep the hand from getting out of the jail." "Personal property stays sealed until you've left the facility." "They search everyone as they leave, but they can't search" " a prisoner's belongings." " Especially a sealed envelope." "I noticed you opened the package already." "Someone went to an awful lot of trouble to get me" " that package." "I had to know." " I would have opened it, too." "My uncle's death will start a land war." "For every building that goes up, 30 bodies will go down." "It's the final phase of Smith's land grab." "So my night in jail, that was all set up just to get the hand out." "Detective Ryder." "He promises inmates help with their parole, gets them to help with his little games." "This war will begin with the death of my father."
