Quotes 

  • William Brandt : [after getting out of a giant fan]  Next time, I get to seduce the rich guy.

  • William Brandt : Your line's not long enough!

    Ethan Hunt : No shit!

  • Benji Dunn : Why am I Pluto? It's not even a planet anymore!

    William Brandt : Well, Uranus is still available.

    Benji Dunn : [sarcastically]  Ha, it's funny 'cuz you said anus.

  • William Brandt : 22 minutes to door knock.

    Ethan Hunt : The countdown is not helping.

    William Brandt : I'm just saying.

  • Ethan Hunt : Did you jump?

    William Brandt : [hovering over a giant fan]  Should I not have jumped? Cause I jumped!

  • William Brandt : I was on a protection detail in Croatia. Shadowing the assets, husband and wife. They were never supposed to know we were there. Whole thing's routine; it was a milk run. Three days in, we caught wind that a Serbian hit squad was after our couple. But my team had it under control. We knew they were coming. But I couldn't shake this feeling that I should warn the couple somehow. I wanted to find a way to let them know. But, you know, orders are orders, so I didn't. One day, the husband decides to leave the hotel and go for a run, so I follow him and I leave two men with the wife. When I get back, my guys are unconscious and the wife is gone. Local police found her body three days later. What was left of her, anyway. That was my last day in the field. I couldn't face another life or death situation after that.

    Jane Carter : So what happened to the husband?

    William Brandt : I never saw him again. Until two days ago in Moscow, when the Secretary introduced me to Ethan Hunt.

  • Benji Dunn : I'd be more worried about the heat.

    William Brandt : [pauses]  And then there's that. What heat?

    Benji Dunn : Well it's just like any other computer. If you switch the fan off it's gonna get pretty hot in there.

    William Brandt : Heh. Of course.

    Benji Dunn : Relatively.

    William Brandt : So I'm jumping into a... an oven, essentially.

    Benji Dunn : Yeah, essentially. But, uh, I catch you.

    William Brandt : Great.

  • Benji Dunn : Ethan? Jesus, I thought you were dead.

    William Brandt : We are.

  • Ethan Hunt : European male. Fifties. About six-foot, 180 pounds.

    [shows Brandt a drawing on his hand] 

    Ethan Hunt : Blue eyes. Who is he?

    William Brandt : A crude drawing, but by your description, that could be Kurt Hendricks. 190 IQ. Served in Swedish Special Forces. Professor of physics, Stockholm University. Specialist in nuclear endgame theory. Asked to resign... well, because he's crazy.

  • William Brandt : We all have our secrets. Don't we, Ethan?

  • Sabine Moreau : How good is your backup?

    William Brandt : The best.

    Sabine Moreau : [laughing]  I've killed the best.

  • IMF Secretary : The President has initiated Ghost Protocol. The entire IMF has been disavowed.

    Ethan Hunt : So what happens now?

    IMF Secretary : Now, I've been ordered to take you back to Washington, where the DOD will label you as a rogue extremist and hang the Kremlin bombing on you and your team. Unless, you were to escape somewhere between here and the airport, having assaulted Mr. Brandt and me.

    Brandt : Sir?

    IMF Secretary : You would then illegally scrounge whatever material you could from a backup supply cache that I've overlooked. The same cache where your team are waiting for further orders.

    Brandt : Sir, you may want to...

    IMF Secretary : You will then disappear, and this conversation never having taken place, your intentions would be unclear. But if any one of your team is caught or killed, they will be branded terrorists, out to incite global nuclear war.

    [handing Ethan a USB drive] 

    IMF Secretary : Your mission, should you choose to accept it.

  • William Brandt : More fan! More fan! More fan!
