Quotes 

• Josh Wagner : [threatening with a gun]  Just get me the money back!

  Nick Madison : I don't have it! I swear to God, I did *not* steal from you.

  Josh Wagner : Liar!

  Patty : He's not l-lying! Please don't s-shoot us, Mr. Wagner! Please!

  Sam Axe : [runs in with Michael]  Josh! You don't want to do this.

  Josh Wagner : Sam? What the hell are you doing here?

  Sam Axe : I'm here to help. Just put that down.

  Josh Wagner : [pointing gun at Michael]  Who are *you*?

  Michael Westen : My name's Michael. I'm a friend of Sam's. Listen. Let's talk about this.

  Nick Madison : No!

  Michael Westen : There's a better way to handle this, Josh.

  Nick Madison : No, no, *no*! I *tried* better ways, Sam. I-I-I went to the police. I asked nicely. Nothing happened. Nothing worked. I am out of options!

  ["Josh" / "Out of Options"] 

  Michael Westen : We don't want anybody to get hurt, Josh. We don't want you to go to jail.

  Josh Wagner : I *deserve* to go to jail for trusting the charity's money to this *thieving* *bastard*!

  ["Nick Madison" / "Thieving Bastard"] 

  Josh Wagner : I'm not going anywhere. Understand me? Not until I get every penny of that money back.

  Nick Madison : Josh, buddy. I know that you're upset, but...

  [Josh huts him in the face with the butt of his gun] 

  Nick Madison : Aah!

  Patty : Oh! Oh, my God.

  Josh Wagner : I'm not your damn buddy.

  [sirens wail] 

  Josh Wagner : Who called the cops?

• Lieutenant Seth Casey : This is Lieutenant Seth Casey, Miami Metro Police.

  ["Lt. Casey" / "Tough S.O.B."] 

  Lieutenant Seth Casey : Whoever you are, if you want this to work out, you will pick up the phone. Right now. We need to talk.

  Josh Wagner : W-what do I do? What do I say?

  Sam Axe : Mike, this train's about to start moving real fast. It's not too late for you to hop off, but I'm staying.

  Michael Westen : [narrative]  In a hostage crisis, first contact with the police is critical. One wrong word from a hostage taker can be the difference between the start of negotiations or the start of an armed assault.

  Lieutenant Seth Casey : Pick up the phone!

  Michael Westen : [as Josh goes to answer the phone]  Stop!

  Josh Wagner : He said I should...

  Michael Westen : Leave it. You sound like you're gonna jump off a bridge. You answer a phone like that, and you'll have a SWAT team banging through the door before you hang up. I'll get it.

  Michael Westen : [to Sam]  I leave when you leave.

  Michael Westen : [timidly into the phone]  Hello? Hello?

  Lieutenant Seth Casey : Who am I speaking with?

  Michael Westen : He says I can't answer any of your questions. He says that... no one will get hurt as long as... you don't... come any closer.

  Lieutenant Seth Casey : O-Okay, but tell him I can't help him... u-unless I can talk to him.

  Michael Westen : He-he says I got to go.

  Lieutenant Seth Casey : Wait, wait, wait. Don't hang up. Tell him the line's open. Anytime he wants to talk, all he has to do is...

  [Michael hangs up] 

  Michael Westen : You hung up on him?

  Josh Wagner : This is more of a "less is more" situation. I'm just buying time.

  Sam Axe : Okay, Josh, we're gonna help you get your money back, but only if you let us call the shots.

  Josh Wagner : Are you sure about this? You could go to jail.

  Sam Axe : Right now we're just two friends trying to end this peacefully. As long as it stays that way, Mike and I can get your money back and stay out of jail. Deal?

  Josh Wagner : [sighs, shakes hands]  Deal.

  Michael Westen : Josh.

  [Josh is distracted for a moment, long enough for Sam to get the gun from him]
