Nate quotes from Leverage

Sophie

You do realize that that stunt you pulled defines 'out of control.'

I just wanted you to see that I would never put any of you at risk if I wasn't willing to take the same chances myself.

Sophie

I love how you think that's comforting.

Parker

I don't think I am being strange enough.

I doubt that.

Sophie

Sometimes you--you--you don't get a second chance to get it right.

Parker

Why not?

Sophie

Rules of life.

But that's exactly what we do. We change the rules.

Now, there are railroad tracks a mile and a half west of the camp. Can you get there?

Sure, but what if there's no train?

Oh, there will be. We're gonna steal you one.

You're going to go toe to toe with these guys without a plan?

Oh we have a plan, it's called C.W.A.

Eliot

Can of Whoop Ass.

Next time I steal you a train, get on it.

You're not gonna rain on my parade. I made a bomb out of a menthol light.

You want to buy Veronica here?

Veronica? I thought Betty was the fast one. Who knew?

Wait a minute. Look, my only way out is the front door. Are they coming through the front door?

I don't know.

What you mean you don't know? You better say something, I swear on my momma I will blow a hole through your bedroom and Spider-man out the side of this building. You better tell somethin'!

You always thought you were smarter than me. Brighter, better than me. Everyone in the neighborhood always treated me with respect, but my own son--

What'd you do to respect exactly?

Jimmy

My son, my altar-boy son, well, hey listen to you. Never broke the law. Never broke a rule. Look at you now. You're a thief. You've done time.

If you know what I've been, then you know this is my town now. And I don't want you running game in it.

Jimmy

All your life, you thought you were better than me and now you're trying to be me? You can't be me. You don't have the stones for that. You're not tough enough, you're not ruthless enough. You don't have what it takes.

I don't like you.

[Sarcastically] Gee, does that mean I can't come to your birthday party and ride the pony?

Jimmy

You betrayed your own father. You're more ruthless than me. Crueler than me. Yeah. Maybe you are better than me, huh. I'm proud of you son.

Enjoy your retirement.

Sophie

The Skagway Shuffle.

Yeah. That's what I was thinking.

See, now y'all are just making stuff up.

Sophie

It's like the Fiddle Game.

Yeah, only underground.

Parker

Is Eliot going to be the fiddle again?

No.

Sophie

No.

Parker

Can I be the fiddle?

No.

Sophie

No.

Sophie

What are we going to do, Nate?

We are going to convince him that you are a lying, greedy bitch.

Nicely done.

Parker

I had a little help from Sophie. But yeah. I nailed it. I'm a grifter. I grift.

Yeah. You do know you don't get to keep the money.

Parker

Don't ruin it.

Hey, hey. What is this? I thought we were supposed to be, uh, finding Moreau.

Sophie

This is more important.

More important? We don't find Moreau, I might go back to prison forever.

Sophie

Oh, shush. You did fine in prison the first time.

Eliot

You got in shape.

Parker

Yeah, you look good in a jumpsuit.

[Upset] Learned how to hypnotize people.
