They should have left him alone.
Jason Bourne
edit- What did I say, if I even feel someone behind me I'll bring this fight to your doorstep.
- She wouldn't want me to, it's the only reason you're alive.
- I'm gonna ask you some simple questions. You're gonna tell me the truth or I swear to God I'm gonna kill ya.
- It changes things, that knowledge, doesn't it? When what you love gets taken from you... You'd wanna know the truth.
- [last lines] Get some rest, Pam. You look tired.
Ward Abbott
edit- I've given thirty years and two marriages to this agency. I've shoveled shit on four continents. I'm due to retire next year, but if you think I'm gonna sit here and let you dangle me with this, you can go to hell.
- You talk about this stuff like you read it in a book.
- You're in a big puddle of shit, Pamela, and you don't have the shoes for it.
- [sensing Jason Bourne standing behind him] I don't suppose it'll do me much good to cry for help, huh?
- I'm a patriot. I served my country.
Pamela Landy
edit- I'm getting on a plane to Berlin in 45 minutes, which means you're gonna call me back in 30. And when I ask you where we stand, I had better be impressed.
- C'mon, guys, we ran this guy's life with total control for all those years; we should be a step ahead of him! You wanna go home? Find Jason Bourne.
- This game? You just lost it.
- What if I can't find her?
- If there's something you're not telling me I want it now before I send that girl out there, do you understand?
Dialogue
edit- Jason Bourne: Now, two years, we're scribbling in that notebook...
- Marie: It hasn't been two years.
- Jason Bourne: ..it's always bad, and now it's just the same thing over and over again.
- Marie: But that's why we write it down. Because sooner or later, you remember something good.
- Jason Bourne: I do remember something good. All the time.
- Marie: It's never gonna be over like this, I don't want--
- Jason Bourne: We don't have a choice!
- Marie: Yes, you do.
- Tom Cronin: He's making his first mistake.
- Nicky Parsons: It's not a mistake. They don't make mistakes. They don't do random. There's always an objective. Always a target.
- Pamela Landy: The objectives and targets always came from us. Who's giving them to him now?
- Nicky: Scary version? He is.
- Pamela Landy: What if I can't find her?
- Jason Bourne: It's easy. She's standing right next to you.
- [Landy looks out the window, realizing Bourne has been watching her]
- Nicky: Jason, please don't hurt me.
- Jason Bourne: What were my words? What did I say? I said leave me alone. Leave me out of it.
- Nicky: I did, I swear, Jason, I-I told them that I believed you.
- Jason Bourne: I'm gonna ask you some simple questions. You're gonna answer me honestly or I swear to God, I'm gonna kill you.
- Nicky: Why are you doing this? Why-Why come back now? Landy is buying--
- Jason Bourne: Stop, just stop! A week ago, I was 4,000 miles away, in India, watching Marie die. They came for me, and they killed her instead. This ends now.
- Jason Bourne: My first job, in Berlin. I did a job here, you know my file.
- Nicky: [panicking while being interrogated by Bourne] No, you've never worked in Berlin before.
- Jason Bourne: My first job.
- Nicky: No, your first assignment was Geneva.
- Jason Bourne: [slams Nicky against a wall] You fucking people!
- Pamela Landy: I'm convinced that Bourne knows something--
- Ward Abbott: He knows that you're after him. And in the interest of self-preservation, you might start with that.
- Jason Bourne: So he got in the way. Is that why Neski died? Is that why you killed Marie?
- Ward Abbott: You killed Marie. The minute you got into her car. The minute you entered her life, she was dead.
- [Jason advances on Abbot, forcing his head onto his desk and holding something to the older man's skull.]
- Jason Bourne: I told you people to leave us alone. I fell off the grid, I was halfway around the world!
- Ward Abbott: There's no place it won't catch up to you. It's how every story ends. It's what you are, Jason -- a killer. You always will be. Go ahead, go on, go on, do it! Do it!
- Jason Bourne: She wouldn't want me to. That's the only reason you're alive.
- [Bourne brings his hand down, revealing he was holding a tape recorder to Abbott's head]
- [holds a gun to Landy]
- Ward Abbott': I'm a patriot. I served my country.
- Pamela Landy: And Danny Zorn? What was he?
- Ward Abbott: Unlucky. Collateral damage.
- Pamela Landy: So, what do we do now?
- Ward Abbott: ...I'm not sorry. [he turns the gun on himself]
