[After the shootout at the gas plant]
Curtis, the Sentox is already in the system. Who's in charge here?
[Sam the foreman raises his hand]
Listen to me. You have Sentox nerve gas running through your pipelines. Can you shut down the pumps?
By the time we power down, gas will be in the main tanks and it's out into the city.
I need the closest pipeline that feeds those tanks.
Just out the door, to your left. It'll have a red arrow on it.
Get me C4 and a timer, get these people out of here.
BuchananJack, what are you doing?
In order to deliver the Sentox it had to mix with natural gas. If we can ignite that gas before it leaves the plant, the Sentox will be incinerated. Bill, this is the last chance we've got to stop this threat.

Do you understand the difference between dying for something and dying for nothing? The only reason I fought so hard to stay alive in China was because I didn't want to die for nothing. Today, I can die for something. My way, my choice. To be honest with you, it'll be a relief.

BuchananThe hell you can't!

Bill BuchananCurtis didn't leave you any choice.
That's what I keep trying to tell myself.
