Kathleen Lloyd: Adrian Joyner

Quotes 

• Douglas Brackman, Jr. : This is unbelievable. We might as well have been taken over by the Hezbollah

  Adrian Joyner : I really do have to get off this plane

  Astrid : Mr. Brackman, I'm sorry but we're all out of the lamb and the chicken...

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : I don't care about that. What I do care about is the entire purpose of my trip is being frustrated by your pilot's indifference.

  Astrid : We're all in this together, sir.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : We're NOT all in this together. You didn't pay $1500 to be here.

  Judy : Ladies and gentlemen, due to the length of the delay, we've decided to proceed with the showing of our movie this afternoon, "the good mother", starring Diane Keaton.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : That's it. I've got a meeting in Chicago. I'm leaving this airplane.

  Astrid : Mr. Brackman, please.

  Judy : Captain, we're having a problem with one of our passengers.

  Astrid : Mr Brackman, sit back down!

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : I won't sit down!

  Astrid : Mr. Brackman, please!

  Captain Charles Laughlin : Get away from that door.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : Ahh, the captain emerges.

  Captain Charles Laughlin : Get back in your seat, sir

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : No. This isn't the army and you're not my commanding officer.

  Captain Charles Laughlin : I said return to your seat!

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : No! You will deal with me rationally.

  Captain Charles Laughlin : I cannot deal with you rationally until you return to your seat and stop endangering the safety of if other passengers.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : I want you to explain why we've been held captive in this airplane for two and a half hours. I want reasons or I want to be allowed to leave.

  Captain Charles Laughlin : Once we pull away from that terminal, your rights as a citizen end. Now, I am in sole charge of this plane and everyone on it. Now, you may be unhappy with my decisions, but you may do nothing to challenge my authority. Should you persist in doing so, I am fully empowered by federal aviation law and the rules of the Warsaw Convention to take any and all measures required to restrain you up to and including having you shot dead. Right now, we are waiting for a part. I am expecting it to be installed shortly. I hope that suffices as an explanation for you sir. But even if it doesn't, I trust you will sit in your seat and do what you're told.
