• Wade Jennings : [Impressed at his team solving a computer problem]  I don't pay you guys enough money.

• Agent Thompson : Mr. Jennings, I'm Helen Thompson. I don't think we've ever had the privilege.

  Wade Jennings : I wouldn't call it a privilege. Agent Thompson's the reason we're fighting our wars with one hand tied to our dicks.

  Agent Thompson : So I guess you know why we're here.

  Wade Jennings : Well, you said it was a matter of national security.

  Agent Thompson : Yeah. When was the last time you spoke to Mike Banning?

  Wade Jennings : Well, if you're doing your job, you'd know the answer to that.

  Agent Thompson : Oh, I do. Let's see if we've come up with the same answer.

  [drawing his gun, Jennings shoots her and Ramirez in the stomach, then their helicopter pilot; turning back, he then puts a round in Ramirez's head] 

  Wade Jennings : [aiming his gun at her]  I am what I am.

• Wade Jennings : We're pulling the plug.

  Travis Cole : The whole thing?

  Wade Jennings : Yeah, Salient's over. We're moving offshore.

  Travis Cole : Roger. I'll crack the whip.

  Wade Jennings : And on the way out, we're making sure this gets done. No matter what, Trumbull's fucking dying today.

• [last lines] 

  Wade Jennings : [on being critically injured]  I'm Glad It Was You... Lions Mike

  [repeated line] 

  Wade Jennings : Lions Mike

• Salient Tech 1 : We hacked into Banning's government IP server and compiled his search history. Over his entire career, Banning's been constantly monitoring this. It's a Social Security number that's collecting VA disability benefits. Check this.

  Wade Jennings : [looking at a service record]  That's Clay Banning. That's Mike's old man. He told me all about him. He was a decorated Ranger in 'Nam and a tunnel rat. He came back, he went crazy, left everyone, and was gone. Where's daddy now?

  Salient Tech 1 : West Virginia.

• Wade Jennings : [searching for Trumbull]  He fucked us. Mike hid him somewhere else. War is about deception.

• Mike Banning : I don't think I'm gonna take the director's job if they offer it. God, I'm not ready to ride a desk yet.

  Wade Jennings : I saw it in your eyes the moment I mentioned it. Hell, I wouldn't, either. We're lions. And that ain't never gonna change.

  Mike Banning : Tell you what, though. I'll put in a good word for you when they pick the new director.

  Wade Jennings : Only if it's convenient.

• Leah Banning : Mike said you grew up in England?

  Wade Jennings : Uh, yeah, I did. Yeah, my father was an expat. I, uh... I never really felt I belonged anywhere. But when I moved to the States after school, I-I joined the Army.

  Leah Banning : And how long did you guys serve together?

  Mike Banning : Uh, I got into Third Batt right after you. So, what, about three, four years?

  Wade Jennings : That sounds about right. Yeah.

  Leah Banning : Mike never tells me stories about his Army days.

  Wade Jennings : Yeah, well, most of us don't. It's just our way, I guess. But, uh, hey, if you... if you wanna hear a story...

  Mike Banning : No.

  Leah Banning : Yeah.

  Mike Banning : No, she doesn't wanna hear a story. You know, whatever he's gonna say is... is definitely inappropriate.

• Wade Jennings : Word is, uh, David Gentry's retiring, and you're on the deck to take over. Director of Secret Service, huh?

  Mike Banning : And here I just thought you missed me.

• Wade Jennings : His face will be plastered everywhere, so he won't be able to use public transport. What time did the police call in the semi crash?

  Travis Cole : Scanner traffic pegs it at 4:17 a.m.

  Wade Jennings : That puts him at, what, about a 200-mile range of the crash?

  Travis Cole : 240.

  Wade Jennings : 240. Okay, listen up, everybody. Mike will have to find somewhere to regroup. Dig into his life. Find out anything, anyone that can hide him. Every hour you don't have an answer for me is another hour he's kicking our fucking ass.

• [At the Salient Global compound, the team has an incoming call from Frost, one of the mercenaries] 

  Travis Cole : It's Frost.

  Wade Jennings : [Not buying it]  No, it's not. Put him through.

  [Speaks to Mike] 

  Wade Jennings : Guess I should've sent more guys, huh?

  Mike Banning : Why don't you come yourself?

  Clay Banning : [enraged]  Yeah, tell him to send all the fuckheads he's got in that shitty outfit of his!

  [Mike shushes Clay as the latter backs up] 

  Wade Jennings : Sounds like your Dad's all fired up.

  Mike Banning : What happened to you, Wade? How did it come to this?

  Wade Jennings : Look, I wish it could've been different, Mike. But war is about deception, and Trumbull was in the way. You were a necessary evil, caught in the right place at the right time. Be thankful that you're still breathing.

  Mike Banning : Fuck you! So what is it? We get into another war and you get your billions in contracts?

  Wade Jennings : You think it's about the money, Mike? No, I wish I could trade places with you. You're the one out there fighting, fighting for life. Can you feel it? Blood pumping? Yeah. Lions, Mike. Lions. Now I get to have my fix. too.

  Mike Banning : Oh, you'll get your fix. Don't worry about finding me. I'll find you.

  [Mike hangs up] 

  Wade Jennings : That's my Mike.
