Quotes
-
Lew Vogel : I've got a kidney stone, which can't seem to pass without painkillers.
Dave Shilling : [bloodied] I could use a couple of those meself.
-
Dave Shilling : I don't know anything about a bank robbery. Honest.
Lew Vogel : Still an unconvincing actor, Mr. Shilling.
-
Lew Vogel : Don't take me for a fool, Michael. You instigated this calamity by storing your blackmail materials in this bank.
Michael X : Which you recommended! I will not be lectured by the porn king of Soho. Get my pictures back, or you will never see a black man on the streets of London without wondering if he's been sent to kill you!

Lew Vogel : [has just received the anticipated call from the bank robbers] Hello?
Terry Leather : Who am I talking to?
Lew Vogel : [very keenly] Terry Leather, Kevin Swain, Martine Love, Eddie Burton. Yeah, Mr. Shilling was kind enough to speak with me about this.
Terry Leather : You put Dave on the phone now.
Lew Vogel : Well I'd oblige to, but... he seems to be indisposed at the moment.
Terry Leather : What do you want?
Lew Vogel : Just a couple of things from what you've stolen. A ledger with a dark red cover. And some photos that I'm sure the MI-5 is interested in. The "Royal portfolio".
Terry Leather : All we got is money and jewels.
Lew Vogel : [takes glasses off, to rub his eyes] Then I suggest you look again.
[gives phone to Eddie who's tied to a chair]
Lew Vogel : Speak to your friends.
[holds phone out and puts glasses back on]
Eddie Burton : [terrified and miserable] Hello? Who is this?
Terry Leather : Eddie, this is Terry.
Eddie Burton : [crying] Oh Terry, fucking hell. Dave's all messed up, and they're going to do the same to me. You got to help.
Terry Leather : [calm] Listen to me, Eddie. I don't have what he wants.
Eddie Burton : No?
[off Vogol's bitter stern look who has heard this too starts panicking]
Eddie Burton : No, you've got to have what they want, you've got to. You've got to help.
Terry Leather : Eddie, what am I supposed to do? You tell him, we don't have it!
Eddie Burton : [pleading] You've got to. You have to. You...
Terry Leather : [yelling] What else am I supposed to do? Tell him that! You tell him, I don't have his fucking ledger! You tell that cunt now!
Eddie Burton : [breaking down in tears softly to Vogol who has lowered the phone] No.
[shaking his head]
Eddie Burton : He doesn't have it.
Lew Vogel : [nods/says understandingly but in reality sarcastic] Right.
[nods to cohort]
Vogol's cohort : [making a quick fluid motion takes his gun out and shoots/kills Dave]
Eddie Burton : NO!
[Lew Vogel puts the phone back up to Eddie's face so he can report the news to Terry]
Eddie Burton : They just shot Dave.
[tears streaming down his face]
Eddie Burton : Dave is dead.
[Terry Leather's face is covered with a shocked look]
Lew Vogel : [takes the phone and says in it] I'll give you one hour to find what I want... or I'll kill this man too.
[hangs phone up]
Terry Leather : [more shocked then ever hangs up and runs with Kevin to the van. They start emptying every bag out, creating a heap of papers] Fuck!
Kevin Swain : [sees a red ledger] Wait, is this it? This might be it.
Terry Leather : [picks it up and reads] Lew Vogel. That's what this bastard is.
-
Lew Vogel : I have a very jaundice view of life. From what I see most of it is corrupt, venal, and vile.
-
Lew Vogel : I'm afraid I have some potentially bad news for you, Michael. Your safety deposit box at the Baker Street bank - what's its number?
Michael X : Why do you ask?
Lew Vogel : Well, we had some weekender thieves break into the vault and robbed it. So if your box is in the one hundred to four hundred numbers, I'm afraid all your stuff will be gone. Mine too, unhappily.
Michael X : What? How can this happen in London?
Lew Vogel : I promise you it has happened, and I promise you these thieves will be found and dealt with. You can rely on it. I'll keep you informed.
