- [The fire alarm is ringing. The traders leave the floor.]
- Marty Stephens: I'm warning you guys. You walk out that door, don't bother coming back.
- Ayn Krywarik: I'll give anyone five-to-one odds the whole place burns down.
- [Everybody stares at her.]
- Ayn Krywarik: What? You never heard of hedging?
- [She walks back onto the floor.]
- Marty Stephens: What is happening in this world? Doesn't anybody care about money any more? What'd you say? Five to one?
- Donald D'Arby: Uh, pardon me, but I've found that before you find a buyer you generally have to find something for them to buy, Jack.
- Jack Larkin: Tips like that make you indispensable, Donald.
- Jack Larkin: Nice try at aggression back there, Donald.
- Donald D'Arby: I guess you have something to teach me about lying, as well?
- Marty Stephens: Did you get Lewis yet?
- Ayn Krywarik: I'm not your secretary.
- Marty Stephens: Well, would you mind finding her and asking her to get Lewis on the goddamn phone for me, please?
- Ayn Krywarik: I am pulling in *twice* as much as anyone else in retail. I'll take Jim's desk.
- Marty Stephens: Why? Where's Jim?
- Ayn Krywarik: You fired him.
- Marty Stephens: Somebody get *Jim* on the phone for me. Okay, I'm not giving away anybody's desk until I find out who works here.
- [Marty's wife is still on the phone.]
- Marty Stephens: No, honey, I don't think it's going to affect milk prices at all. Yes, I know you're being sarcastic. I'll pick it up on the way home.
- Donald D'Arby: Solid management, cash rich. They just got an order from France for a new fleet of jets, and you can forget about them. Susannah warned me--the CEO, he won't talk to anybody, won't see anybody. The guy, he's a total recluse. And I already tried calling him.
- [Jack gets up and grabs his coat.]
- Donald D'Arby: And you want me to drive.
- Ayn Krywarik: Guess no one's ever accused you of being too soft a sell.
- Jack Larkin: Frankly, you don't strike me as the soft-sell type.
- Jack Larkin: How about some eight ball?
- Ayn Krywarik: Friendly game?
- Jack Larkin: No, no, no, no. Friendly wager.
- Jack Larkin: Same time tomorrow?
- Ayn Krywarik: Why not right now?
- Jack Larkin: No, no, no, no. You've had a couple drinks. I wouldn't want to take advantage.
- Ayn Krywarik: But I'm better after a couple drinks.
- Jack Larkin: Then I wouldn't want you to take advantage. Tomorrow night.
- Ayn Krywarik: See, all I could find out about you was that you spent two years in reform school for a B&E.
- Jack Larkin: Those records are supposed to be sealed.
- Ayn Krywarik: No shit.
- Adam Cunningham: Are you people putting on a show?
- Jack Larkin: They're working up the Navadyne pitch.
- Adam Cunningham: Didn't know theatre companies required navigation systems.
- Jack Larkin: Did I miss something?
- Ayn Krywarik: No, I don't think you missed a thing. Listen, I only have a couple of rules in my life, but I try to live by them very strictly. I do not get up from my seat until the aircraft has come to a complete stop. I do not mix business with any other form of entertainment. Some people can do it, and I'm not one of them.
- Jack Larkin: Fair enough. But when the deal's over, I may want to renegotiate.
- [Ayn makes Jack say hello to the client's Great Dane.]
- Jack Larkin: Nanki-Poo? You're supposed to be Japanese. You look decidedly Danish.
- [They shake paws anyway.]
- [Jack has spent all evening indulging a client.]
- Jack Larkin: Okay, I'm gonna make this brief, because there's a *small* chance that I may be wasting my time.
- Jack Larkin: No. Jane Lansing! Hold Your Horses. 1958. Tony award winning performance. Hunh? She was incredible, wasn't she?
- [To Ayn]
- Jack Larkin: Why didn't you tell me he was into Broadway? So what do you think? Should we go ahead with this?
- Ayn Krywarik: This aircraft has not come to a complete stop.
- Jack Larkin: Boy, this better be a good deal.
