Montana quotes from Miami Vice

Tubbs

I can understand the idea of being invisible, but don't you think you're taking your, uh, cover a little bit too far?

I don't know. You live undercover, don't you?

Tubbs

Yeah.

Montana

You wear thousand-dollar suits and bounce around in a Caddy?

Tubbs

Yeah? So?

Montana

So I get my clothes out of dumpsters and I live in a box. We're both after the same thing. You have to work with the scum suckers. I prefer to bust 'em.

Tubbs

So am I gonna start searching or you gonna make it easy?

Montana

You're looking at it.

Tubbs

Come on, Montana. It's too late to start playin' games.

Montana

This ain't no game, man. Out there, that's a game, but these people's lives are at stake.

Tubbs

These people's lives are at stake? It's funny to hear you say that. Where's the money?

Montana

Like I said, this is it.

Tubbs

Are you tellin' me that you put 200 easy grand into this place?

Montana

It went pretty fast. The lot cost 125,000. By the time everybody else got their cut, I was left with 50,000 for food and medicine and bedding and sheets and soap and towels, you know?

Tubbs

Why'd you do it with dirty money? Why didn't you just go out and get a grant or something?

Montana

Oh, right, right. I tried that once. Ran into a big brick wall. Probably would have had better luck if I said it was for freedom fighters.

Tubbs

The means justify the ends?

Montana

You never once heard me try to justify murder.

Tubbs

I never once heard you try to make it anything better either.

Montana

You just don't get it, do you?

Tubbs

I want you to help us with the sting.

Montana

Colón is too nervous already about the amount of stuff he's sitting on.

Tubbs

Just bring me in as an out-of-town mover. We'll pay him top dollar to take it off his hands.

Montana

Look, Tubbs, if you're talking deal...

Tubbs

I'm not talking deal. What I'm saying is I'll lay it out to my lieutenant, and if he goes for it, what do you want?

Montana

What do I want? What do I want? This! The remainder of my cut is sitting in a trust fund to keep this shelter running. If you want my help, you make sure that that is untouchable.

Tubbs

I'll do the best I can.

Something bothering you, Stone?

Montana

Yeah, a lot of things bother me, Colon. Do you want me to make a list for you?

That always seems to be your problem, Montana.
