Quotes 

• Amanda Waller : Any questions?

  [long silence] 

  King Shark : Hand!

  Amanda Waller : Yes, that is your hand. Very good.

• Amanda Waller : Your mission is to destroy every trace of something known only as Project Starfish. Any questions?

  Peacemaker : [raises hand]  Starfish is a slang term for a butthole. Think there's any connection?

  [everyone stares at Peacemaker] 

  Amanda Waller : No.

• Amanda Waller : Each member of the team is chosen for his or her own completely unique set of abilities. This is Christopher Smith, known as Peacemaker. In his hands, anything is a deadly weapon. His father was a soldier who trained his son how to kill from the moment he was born.

  Bloodsport : You just said each member of the team is chosen for their unique abilities. He does exactly what I do.

  Peacemaker : But better

  Bloodsport : I always hit my targets dead center.

  Peacemaker : I hit them more in the center.

  Bloodsport : Well, you can't hit something more in the center.

  Peacemaker : I use smaller bullets.

  Bloodsport : What?

  Peacemaker : They go inside your bullet holes without even touching the sides

• Amanda Waller : You know the deal: successfully complete the mission and you get ten years off your sentence. You fail to follow my orders in any way, and I detonate the explosive device in the base of your skull.

• Amanda Waller : You didn't tell me you had a fear of rats, DuBois?

  Bloodsport : I'm an assassin! Why would I share my liabilities?

  [shrieks] 

• Bloodsport : That's just a taste of what's on that drive. I've uploaded it all to a secure server. Now, if you kill any one of us, or my daughter ever sees the inside of a prison, it goes public. If we all go free, it never has to see the light of day.

  Amanda Waller : I told you I'd make you a leader, DuBois. You got a deal.

• John Economos : Who the fuck is Bloodsport?

  Amanda Waller : Robert DuBois. A world class marksman. In his hands, anything is a deadly weapon. His father was a mercenary who trained his son to kill from the moment he was born. He's in prison for putting Superman in the ICU with a kryptonite bullet.

• Bloodsport : I'm no fucking leader!

  Amanda Waller : Then I'll make you one.

• Peacemaker : [referring to King Shark]  Does it talk?

  King Shark : Book read.

  Bloodsport : Wow.

  Peacemaker : Books upside down. See that? It's pretending to read a book.

  King Shark : So smart me. Enjoy book so much.

  Amanda Waller : Be a mite careful, as he's developed a taste for human meat.

• Amanda Waller : Next, we have Cleo Cazo, Ratcatcher 2.

  Peacemaker : What, we couldn't afford Ratcatcher 1?

  Amanda Waller : He's dead. this is his daughter.

• John Economos : [referring to Bloodsport]  Hey, all that stuff about his daughter, you wouldn't really do that, right?

  Amanda Waller : You don't know half of what I would do, John.

• Amanda Waller : [after giving briefing about Project Starfish]  Any questions?

  Ratcatcher II : [raising hand]  What is that?

  [pointing to a device in front of the room] 

  Amanda Waller : That is an overhead projector.

  Ratcatcher II : Do you ever use it anymore?

  Amanda Waller : No, not really.

  Ratcatcher II : So, why don't you just throw it away?

• Amanda Waller : [to Bloodsport]  I wouldn't take such extreme measures if this mission weren't more important than you could possibly imagine.

• Amanda Waller : [to Savant]  You know the deal. Successfully complete the mission, you get 10 years off your sentence. You fail to follow my orders in any way, and I detonate the explosive device in the base of your skull.

  Doctor Fitzgibbon : Good dog.

  Amanda Waller : We are a black ops unit. Meaning, nothing you see here ever happened.

• Bloodsport : I'm no fucking leader!

  Amanda Waller : ...Then I'll make you one.

• Amanda Waller : [knocking on Ratcatcher II's cell door]  Cazo, will you be joining us?

  Ratcatcher II : [groaning]  I just woke up. I don't function well early in the morning.

  Amanda Waller : My deepest apologies for disturbing you.

  Ratcatcher II : Hmmm, it's all right.

  Amanda Waller : [banging on Ratcatcher II's cell door]  Get your ass out here!

  Peacemaker : [watching Ratcatcher II lazily wakes up and moans]  Millennials!

• Bloodsport : [referring to Sebastian]  Oh, no way. That's not coming with us.

  Amanda Waller : She controls rats.

  Bloodsport : I know, I caught that. It's a disgusting superpower.

  Ratcatcher II : This is Sebastian. Say hello, Sebastian.

  [Sebastian waves at him] 

  Bloodsport : I'm not shaking the rat's hand.

• Bloodsport : To get me to lead your shite fucking mission, you're going to send my fourteen year old daughter to prison?

  Amanda Waller : No. Your daughter is sixteen, DuBois. You're a real father of the year. You have the military experience necessary, and everything in your psychological profile tells me you have what it takes to be a leader.

  Bloodsport : No, I'm no fucking leader.

  Amanda Waller : Then I'll make you one. Are you in, or are you out? Good. Let's meet your team.
