The Equalizer
- Dahne
1. Vince, the mob thug: “Head or chest, Bert?” Bert: “Which hurts less?” Lou, the other mob thug: “I don’t know. Never asked.” Vince: “Who you gonna ask? It’s not like you can take an exit poll.”
2. Shira: “I’ll have my usual. Make it two. I’m forgiving you.” Mel: “Wow.” Shira: “I know. You can thank your husband. That man can talk. He is exhausting, but he loves the hell out of you.”
3. Harry to Shira: “Listen, I get…I get you never liked me, alright. I took your best friend away. I was never good enough for her. Whatever. I get it. Okay, listen. I’m not here for me. This is about Mel. She hated lying to you, really she did, but she had to do it, I swear. I can’t get into it, but it had to do with the government and high level secrets. But she did it to protect me and she did it to protect you. You can hate me, okay? But not Mel, alright. After everything I put here through - the fear, the isolation - it was like a death, but you were the only one who was there for her. You were there for her when I couldn’t be. You were the one who kept her sane. You know what she said to me this morning?” Shira: “What?” Harry: “That you are the only one who knows her. You are the only one who knows who she was, why she is who she is. So please, come on, what do you say. Just give her another chance. Let her back into your life. Please.”

3. Ernie: “No wasted effort, no mistakes. Elegant. Why did you ever retire and deny the world your talents?” Rook: “I had nothing left to give. I was too tied up in the work. What I did became who I was and there was no more pleasure, only more work.” Ernie: “Yeah, it can be hard to separate the two.”
