[from trailer]
Luther Stickell : Ethan, what's your objective? What's your ultimate objective?
Ethan Hunt : Your life will always matter more to me than my own.
Luther Stickell : None of our lives can matter more than this mission.
Ethan Hunt : I don't accept that.

Grace : [talking about Ilsa] Am I the reason she's dead?
Luther Stickell : No, she's the reason you're alive.

Luther Stickell : I packed you a BASE parachute and a speed wing, depending on how you need to leave the train. And I modified our comms to use sky wave radio. Not as reliable as satellite, but completely analogue, immune to the Entity.
Ethan Hunt : Got it.
Luther Stickell : This is where I leave you. This is the drive from the laptop I was using last night. If there's even a trace of the Entity's encoding in there, I'll find it. But it's going to take everything I've got. I have to work complete offline in a place where the Entity can't find me. I have to go.
Ethan Hunt : I understand.
Luther Stickell : Now, I have to ask you a question. Not as your partner, but as your friend. What's your objective?
Ethan Hunt : Kill the Entity.
Luther Stickell : What about killing Gabriel?
Ethan Hunt : He knows what the key unlocks. If we need him alive, I wouldn't have forgotten it.
Luther Stickell : Will you still remember that when you're looking him in the eye? Think about it. Why else would the Entity want him to kill someone you care about? Everyone else thinks they can control the Entity. Only YOU want to kill it. In some probable future, it sees you winning, Ethan. And it's afraid. It's afraid of you taking Gabriel alive and forcing him to tell you what the key unlocks. I believe it's counting on one of two probable outcomes. In one outcome, you die on that train. In another outcome, you kill Gabriel. In both cases, the Entity wins.
Ethan Hunt : Luther, I think you're right.
Luther Stickell : Get the key, get off the train, ALIVE, do NOT kill Gabriel. And do not, I repeat, do NOT alter the plan.

Luther Stickell : Without a team, your life won't be measured in years, or even months...
Benji Dunn : It'll be measured in hours.
