  Dan Vassar : Talk.

  Katie Vasser : You went to a swingers party and all you did was talk?

  Dan Vassar : That and watch the Nixon "I am not a crook" speech on the news. It was a rush to see it on the day that it actually happened.

  Dan Vassar : The only time we meet is on business. We were never meant...

  Livia Beale : We were never meant to live together in your present. Or mine. We were never meant to be, Dan.

• Elliot Langley : Are you finding that other people are interested in your work?

  Dan Vassar : As a matter of fact, yes.

  Elliot Langley : Men with guns always wanna control the men with ideas.

  Dan Vassar : Is that why you left that think tank? Thurn-Tippit, was it?

  Elliot Langley : Yes. The Patriot Act made my research at Thurn accessible to the government. They rationalized that in a time of war, they needed access to anything that could help defeat terrorism.

  Dan Vassar : Defeat terrorism? What are you working on? Something the FBI might be interested in?

  Elliot Langley : Just don't tell anyone about your book. Even a novelist has to worry about losing intellectual property, hmm?
