Leverage Season 1 quotes

I know what you're gonna say.

Sophie

I think you should have a drink.

Okay, I didn't know what you were gonna say.

A what?

You know, you have a strange sense of humor, Mr. Ford. Why are you toying with me, with my heart?

Well, it's not your heart now, is it?

Possession is nine-tenths of the law.

Well, I don't have much use for the law, and you don't have much time.

This is my only chance. I've planned for months. I have eight backup contingencies. I'm fighting for my life, Mr. Ford! What are you fighting for?

I am fighting for that 15-year-old boy that you're going to kill.

[Scoffs] God helps those who help themselves.

And I help people who can't. And God help you if anything should happen to that boy, because if he spends more than one second longer in that hospital than he needs to, I will make it my mission in life to end you. I will ruin you. I will ruin your name. I will ruin your company. I will bring down everything you have ever touched. And when I am done, I will hunt you down, and I will kill you myself.

No. No, look, I said no. It's...not a good time. We have a tornado warning. Hello.

Tower, we need that vector.

No. No. Look. Tell the people to parachute down. I don't care. Do something. But you cannot land that plane!

Tower, we're at min fuel. We do not have time to mess around. I've got 345 people up here. This is my bird. I'm the captain, and I'm landing over your objections.

You can do that?

[to himself] It's just landing a plane with 300 people, it's whatever. Why didn't I play more flight simulators?

Well, Mr. Ford, it seems you've killed me after all.

Oh, I didn't kill you. God killed you. I just made sure it took.

You still haven't told me what's in it for me.

Sterling

I will owe you a favor. How often does that happen?

[over comms] Eliot, try not to kill Sterling, we may need him.

Eliot

[looks indignant] I can't promise that!

Sterling

[glances at Eliot] What was that?

This thing is like the nuclear equivalent of the One Ring.

Sophie

Ring? What ring?

Oh, please. Don't get him started.

We know what security system is protecting the weight, so all we got to do is hack into it.

Okay, let's get one thing clear here. What you say "we," you really mean me. And what do you mean, "just hack into it," Nate? I don't know what this thing is. Never seen it before in my life. How am I supposed to hack it?

That's a very good question, Hardison. I'm sure you'll have it figured out by tomorrow. Good luck. [Leaves the room]

Sterling

Some things just never change. [Sophie and Hardison glare at him] Is it time for me to go, too?

Parker

It's like I'm the human Hulk. Parker smash! [Hits the table]

Oh, I was just saying I think you're taking some unnecessary risks.

If I were afraid of a little danger, I would play checkers.

Well, you must be afraid of something.

Spider. Poisoned prawns. Carbs. But you want to know what I'm not afraid of?

Hmm.

Being afraid. [Nate chuckles] You like that? I stole it from my dad.

Parker, that...that sounded a lot like ball bearings rolling across the floor.

Parker

Uh huh.

Was that because there were ball bearings rolling across the floor?

Parker

Uh huh.
