  Ham Tyler : Diana is the disease.

• Ham Tyler : No amateurs. I do this my way.

  Nathan Bates : You work for me.

  Nathan Bates : Then I'd say I'm entitled to a refund.

  Ham Tyler : I'd tell you what to do with your money but that'd be rude.

  Nathan Bates : How will I know if you've killed Diana?

  Ham Tyler : I'll let you live.

• Nathan Bates : In your return, you will share your secrets with us. We'll start with the vaccine against cancer, then we'll develop some pest-resistant crops, a pollution-free fuel, some recombinant DNA.

  Diana : I see. I cure the ills of the world, and you get the credit.

  Nathan Bates : That's the deal.

  Ham Tyler : Or I turn you into a pair of shoes.

  Diana : Still crude, Mr. Tyler?
