Quotes
-
[trapped together in an elevator, during a blizzard]
Warren Wilson : I hope Simone's all right. She hates the cold. I left her little sweater at home.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : You people are always complaining about stereotypes, and there you are, a practitioner of poodle husbandry.
Warren Wilson : I made $140,000 last year. How'd you do?
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : [incredulous] $140,000?
Warren Wilson : Yep. And by the way, I can't stand dogs.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : What about Simone? And her "little sweater"?
Warren Wilson : That's business, Fielding. The little bitch is an investment. I'd dress her up in makeup if it helps increase my profits.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : [smiling] You're my kind of guy, Wilson!
[smile fades]
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : I can't believe I just said that.

[Dan is pacing the stuck elevator, rubbing his hands together]
Warren Wilson : Oh, here. Take my coat.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : I'm fine.
Warren Wilson : Yeah, right. Look, let's just take turns wearing it.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : Well, if it'll keep you quiet...
[He grabs the coat and drapes it around his shoulders]
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : It's nice material.
Warren Wilson : Thanks. It's kind of old, it was a gift.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : Your mother?
Warren Wilson : A former... companion.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : Oh...
Warren Wilson : It's all right, it won't bite.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : You said "former" companion. What'd he do, ditch you?
Warren Wilson : In a way. He died.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : ...I'm sorry.
Warren Wilson : It's okay, forget it.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : What happened to him?
Warren Wilson : [shrugs] Same thing happens to a lot of guys. Worked too hard, smoked too much, didn't exercise.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : You get along?
Warren Wilson : [smiles sadly] Ten years.

Warren Wilson : Special Forces, Advanced Infantry - Airborne.

Warren Wilson : I just want you to know, there's no hard feelings. I know you were just doing your job.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : Got it.
Warren Wilson : My I say something else?
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : Shoot.
Warren Wilson : I find you very attractive.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : [this prompts Dan to tear his briefcase in two] What?
Warren Wilson : I just feel attracted to you. I just thought you should know.
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : You mean you're...?
Warren Wilson : Aren't you?

Warren Wilson : Are you really that stupid?
Asst. D.A. Dan Fielding : That's for me to know and for you to find out.
