LanaI want it officially on record that I am strongly opposed to this mission.
[Laughs] What record?
LanaWhy not?! Why won't you stand up to Malory with me?
Um, because we don't give a shit?
LanaAbout the Earth?!
Please! If you really cared, you'd resign, but there's no way you ever will because you're just counting days until, her face bloated and yellow from liver failure, she calls you to her deathbed and in a croaky whisper explains that Mr. Archer is totally incompetent and that you, the long suffering Lana Kane, are the only one qualified to run ISIS and you weep shameful tears because this terrible place is the only true love you will ever know...
Lana[shocked] ...Excuse me... [Leaves]
Daaaaaamn!
What? ...Oh-my-God was I talking?
Mexico's most notorious coyote... Which is Español for "people smuggler."
LanaThanks. That's—
And also for... coyote, it turns out.
LanaArcher—
It's a loanword. Or is it a calque?
LanaWhy do you always do this?
Because I'm always bored.
Is he—? This is totally nerve-wracking. How are you bored?
LanaDon't engage him.
Because I've been lying in scorpion piss for two hours in the sun-blasted shit-hole which is Texas, waiting for a stupid truck stuffed with smallish brown people who just want a job.
And probably Mexican cartel gunmen!
LanaWhat'd I just say?
Big whoop. I'm spooning a Barrett .50-cal. I could kill a building.
LanaJust put one through the engine block when the truck has to stop, please. [To Cyril] This is what he does. He knows we're tense, because we're normal human beings. My theory—and I'm serious—is that he's got some rare kind of pervasive developmental disorder, or even undiagnosed atypical autism.
Um... Your mic's hot.
LanaI know.
Wow.
LanaWhat do you think you're doing?
My job, Lana.
LanaAnd what part of your job exactly is groping my ass?!
The part that calls for spy-craft. C'mon, we're posing as newlyweds, so—
LanaYeah, posing!
And I'm drunk on nuptial bliss.
LanaYou're drunk on champagne.
Eh, little column A, little column B.
Lana...then passing out on the bed, totally naked, for a... what'd you call it?
Power black out. And, you're welcome.
LanaYeah, thanks. The memory of your bare ass will bring me comfort and warmth during the coming nuclear winter!
Relax, it's North Korea. The nation-state equivalent of the short bus.
Go online and check your bank account.
LanaNow? When I'm suction-cupped on a window thirty stories above the ground?
Yeah! You should have five bars.
LanaOkay so, it's gonna sound like I'm hanging up? But— [hangs up]
LanaDid you seriously climb all the way up here just to see what my bonus is?
No, I sarcastically climbed all the way up here to see what your bonus is! He said, sarcastically! Phone!
LanaOkay. Jesus! Keep your voice... [checking phone] Whoa!
Sucks, right? That's not even... remotely fair! What the shit?!
LanaApparently, we're in a crazy parallel universe, where bonuses are based on merit instead of whether or not you crawled out of your— [drops phone] mother—!
[Having Lana and Archer hostage] Oh, we don't shoot you. After mission finish, we take you back to Glorious Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
Oh. Then do go ahead and shoot us.
LanaArcher!
What, Lana? It's none of those things! It's not Democratic, it's not a republic and definitely not glorious!
LanaOh my God. Okay... You're abandoning the mission to go home and pout?
I'm not going home... I'm going down there to kick some Kim Jong Ass!
LanaWha— no! We're doing surveillance!
Yeah, which is apparently French for just sitting around on your ass!
LanaYeah, which is why it's surprising that you're soooo shitty at it.
Suppressing fiiiireeeee-extinquisherrrrr!
Is that...
LanaCyril?!
Lana!
LanaI'm coming, Cyril!
Lana, wait! Bet that's the first time you ever said that. Right? Huh? Okay now we can go.
Lana[cocking a gun] Cyril, hit the deck!
Wait, why Cyril—
Lana[Shooting North Korean spies] GET SOME, YOU SONS OF BITCHES! GET SOME!
You're missing out on all the great things that Tangiers has to offer.
LanaName one.
Cheap...
Lana[Interrupting] Apart from cheap hash and a repulsively low age of consent.
Rugs?
Lana! NOW!
LanaHe said, last-wordsingly.
[Archer pulls up in a Bubble Car]
LanaAre you shitting me?!
What? It was either this or the Vespas. It's not my fault Italy's so gay!
The good news is my men have apprehended Cardinal Correlli, who immediately confessed to the plot.
HA-HEY! That is good news!
LanaYou know how the whole the good news is thing works, right?
The bad news is...
Oh, right.
