Quotes
-
Istivan Hegedesh : Untraceable, tax-free. A small down payment.
Big Jim Tate : Not bad. I still need to swipe a high-capacity circuit board.
Istivan Hegedesh : You made quite an impression on the Web. They're already calling you the human armory.
Big Jim Tate : You build this stuff, you test it, but you always wonder how it'll work when the pressure's on.
Istivan Hegedesh : Are you satisfied?
Big Jim Tate : It was like war.
Istivan Hegedesh : It is a war, Jim. Every great conflict is centered around economic struggle. Your personal battle for financial security is no different.
Big Jim Tate : Tell it to Batman. He almost got me.
Istivan Hegedesh : You may have to take him out. After all, wars have their casualties.

Istivan Hegedesh : The war room. Very schway.
Big Jim Tate : You shouldn't be here, Hegedesh.
Istivan Hegedesh : Plans change. My principals have pushed the deadline forward.
Big Jim Tate : I just have to install this circuit board, then pay up and we're finished. And I mean it, Hegedesh.
Istivan Hegedesh : Whatever you like, Jim, but I thought you enjoyed being Armory.
Big Jim Tate : Let's just say it got a little too thrilling tonight.
[installing the circuit board]
Big Jim Tate : There.
Jared Tate : [swatting a spider away] Ah!
[getting pulled out of his hiding spot]
Jared Tate : Let go!
Big Jim Tate : Jared? Take your hands off him.
Jared Tate : Don't do me any favors, Armory.
Big Jim Tate : Jared...
Jared Tate : Mom and I were worried sick about you, but I guess blowing up the town comes first, you dreg.
Istivan Hegedesh : This is very bad. You'd better do something.

Istivan Hegedesh : What can I say, Jim? These cutbacks affect everyone. Force Tech can't afford to bring you on board.
Big Jim Tate : Force Tech has a short memory, Istvan. I've helped you guys out before, under the table.
Istivan Hegedesh : And we paid you generously. Of course, there are certain unofficial job opportunities.
Big Jim Tate : Like what?
Istivan Hegedesh : You once mentioned a sonic wave device that could shatter steel, the perfect anti-tank weapon.
Big Jim Tate : I designed it, but Wayne-Powers passed on a prototype.
Istivan Hegedesh : Force Tech has contacts with a certain foreign government that is, oh... temporarily in disfavor with the world community. If you were to build them a prototype, they would be embarrassingly grateful.
Big Jim Tate : It's not that easy. I'd have to steal the specifications and build the thing from scratch.
Istivan Hegedesh : I understand, Jim. If it's too much, you can always go live on your modest severance package, but our client won't wait and neither will I. I need an answer now.

Jared Tate : [hearing a noise] What was that?
Istivan Hegedesh : Look at your security camera.
Big Jim Tate : Batman? There's no way he followed me.
Istivan Hegedesh : [picking up the sonic weapon] Let's see if he wants to drop in.
