- Quotes
[last lines]
Edward French: Now, wait a minute. You're going to tell people that I did something to you, Todd?
Todd Bowden: I don't want to drag you down with me, but I will. I'm better at this then you are.
Edward French: Better at what? I'm trying to help you, Todd. Can't you see that?
Todd Bowden: You've helped enough.
Edward French: I am not going to do nothing.
Todd Bowden: Well, you'll fucking have to! If you ever tell anyone about this... the things I'm gonna say about you... they'll never go away. Not for you. Not for your life or career. Think of your job. Think of your son. Even if no one believes me, the police and media will make a background check on you and they will find something. Some dirt such as... the real reason why your wife left you.
[after a short pause]
Todd Bowden: So... what's it gonna be? Do we have a deal?
Edward French: You can't do this, Todd.
Todd Bowden: [coldly] You have no idea what I can do.
