True Believer (2009)

Olivia Williams: Adelle DeWitt

Quotes 

• Adelle DeWitt : It's not the irony that concerns me. You're asking me to place an active with a federal agency.

  Senator Boxbaum : Indirectly, yes.

  Adelle DeWitt : I don't wish to be vulgar, but one of the many benefits of having you as a client is that you help us avoid entanglements with federal agencies, Senator.

• Laurence Dominic : It's not the job. I'm confident Langton can handle the ATF. It's Echo. Her field responses have been wildly erratic lately.

  Adelle DeWitt : She's demonstrated a talent for adaptability, which is precisely what's required in this instance.

  Laurence Dominic : They shouldn't be adaptable; they should be predictable. If Alpha didn't teach us that much?

  Adelle DeWitt : You don't like Echo, do you, Mr. Dominic?

  Laurence Dominic : It's not that I don't like her. It's that sometimes I worry you do.

  Adelle DeWitt : Your objections have been noted. Thank you, Mr. Dominic.

• Laurence Dominic : If I may, Echo has been exhibiting the same signs Alpha did before his composite event. Now, if you're not willing to send her to the attic...

  Adelle DeWitt : Don't gamble on what I'd be willing to do, Mister Dominic. Take the stairs.
