- Quotes
Max Devlin: [referring to Toby's sudden hostility] Some swell marriage we're gonna have! If he hates me, he'll be impossible to live with.
Barney Satin: You don't have to worry about that. The slightest hint to Agent Hargraves and it's all over. You gonna synchronize your watch?
Max Devlin: They all signed. I'm free! Aren't I?
Barney Satin: Yes, you are, but by midnight, they belong to me.
Max Devlin: Not until the natural end of their lives. That's what you said.
Barney Satin: Point of fact: I lied. I need them now.
Max Devlin: Oh, no! Barney, please! I couldn't have done it if I'd known that! He's a great kid. They're all great kids, but that kid, kill him and you kill her!
Barney Satin: Unfortunately, her soul does not belong to me. You win some, you lose some. But then again, you have your precious life.
