• Stanley Goodspeed : [in the lower lighthouse]  Listen, I think we got started off on the wrong foot. Stan Goodspeed, FBl. Uh - Let's talk music. Do you like the Elton John song, "Rocket Man"?

  Captain Darrow : I don't like soft-ass shit.

  Stanley Goodspeed : Oh, you - Oh, oh. Oh. Well, I only bring it up because, uh, it's you. You're the Rocket Man.

  [Goodspeed fires a rocket at him] 

• Captain Darrow : Excuse me, general... but what about the fucking money?

  General Hummel : There is no fucking money. The mission's over.

  Captain Frye : Bullshit it's over!

  Major Tom Baxter : You're talking to a General, soldier! Maintain discipline.

  Captain Darrow : I'm not a soldier, Major. The day we took hostages, we became mercenaries. And mercenaries get paid. I want my FUCKING money!

• Captain Darrow : Sergeant Crisp, secure the General. I'm relieving you of command, sir.

  [pause] 

  Captain Darrow : SERGEANT.

  [Sergeant Crisp pulls out his pistol and reaches for General Hummel's gun holster] 

  Sergeant Crisp : I'll have that sidearm, sir.

  [General Hummel pulls out his pistol from behind his back and points it at Sergeant Crisp] 

  General Hummel : You mean this sidearm?

  [Captains Frye and Darrow pull out their pistols and point them at General Hummel] 

  Captain Frye : Major Baxter, you're either with us or against us.

  Major Tom Baxter : It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve with you, General.

  [Pulls out his pistol and points it General Hummel] 

  Major Tom Baxter : But like he said, it's over.

  [Shoots Captain Darrow] 

• General Hummel : We'll be branded as traitors, the gravest capital crime, punishable by death. A couple hundred years ago, a few guys named Washington, Jefferson and Adams were branded as traitors by the British, and now they're called patriots. In time, so shall we. God willing, in less than 48 hours, we will evacuate this island in gunships under cover of hostages and VX gas warheads. Your destination: a non-extradition treaty country. You will each be paid a fee of one million dollars for services rendered. But you can never again set foot on your native soil. Can you live with that?

  Captain Darrow , Captain Hendrix , Sergeant Crisp , Captain Frye : [unison]  YES, SIR!

• Captain Darrow : [in the lower lighthouse]  Come here... come here, you little chicken shit!

  Stanley Goodspeed : You shoot me, I drop this, we're both dead!

  Captain Darrow : [points his gun away]  Come on, come on, don't be scared, I won't hurt you! Come on...

  Stanley Goodspeed : You know how this shit works?

  Captain Darrow : [pulls his combat knife]  You know how this shit works?

• Captain Darrow : Maybe now they'll pay up.

  Captain Hendrix : Maybe now they won't, captain.

  Captain Darrow : Then maybe we need to execute a few hostages.
