Nina Chance
- Agent Nick Spikings: Do you know what it means to be a team player?
- Nina Chance: Sharp-shooting isn't a team sport.
- Detective Harlan Regis: This is Carla's tape from her answering machine
- Nina Chance: Yeah.
- Detective Harlan Regis: Well, how'd you get it?
- Nina Chance: I stole it.
- Nina Chance: I am fully qualified to answer any questions relating to White House security; furthermore, I resent the implication that...
- Detective Regis: Furthermore, you resent the implication? Man, people don't even speak English in this town anymore.
- Agent Nick Spikings: If anybody found out he solicited your support for his paranoid theories, I'd hate to think how that would look. What people might think. As a team.
- Nina Chance: Why is the door shut?
- Agent Nick Spikings: Excuse me?
- Nina Chance: And why are your hands on me? Cause if anyone walked in here, I'd hate to think how that might look. What they might think. As a team. In this day and age, they might get the wrong idea.
- Nina Chance: You expect me to violate everything I was ever taught? I have duties.
- Detective Harlan Regis: Yeah, and your duties can send an innocent man to jail for the rest of his life. You wanna live with that.
- Nina Chance: Yeah, and I think you better leave.
- Nina Chance: You waltz in here expecting me to violate every oath I've ever taken! I - have - a duty - to protect!
- Agent Nick Spikings: We put our lives on the line - every single day. We have to trust the people we work with.
- Nina Chance: Is there a problem?
- Agent Nick Spikings: You tell me.
- Detective Regis: Alive and ruined is better.
- Nina Chance: Than what?
- Detective Regis: Dead and martyred.
- Detective Regis: [after shootout with henchmen] I thought you were a sharpshooter?
- Nina Chance: Save it!
- Detective Regis: So I'm digging. Fumbling through Peoples Magazine and happen to come across page sixteen. There's a picture of Kyle coming back from Brazil... ... ... and you're standing next to him with an earpiece.
- Detective Regis: You know... ... I must've looked at eighteen months of pictures of this guy. And you know what I found out? I found that you were in over half of them. You were on his detail and you didn't tell me. Until when?
- Nina Chance: I have nothing more to discuss with you about this. The case is closed.
- Detective Regis: Agent Chance, when they did remove from Kyle's detail?
- Nina Chance: You show up here grilling me about work?
- Detective Regis: Just answer the question.
- Nina Chance: Don't come to my home again.
- Detective Regis: Answer the question!
- Nina Chance: You waltz in here expecting me to violate every oath I've ever taken!
- Nina Chance: I have a duty to prote...
- Detective Regis: Protect what? Your duty could send an innocent man to prison for the rest of his life. Are you comfortable with that?
- Nina Chance: I... ... I think you should leave.
- Detective Regis: How is it that Spikings finds a button in the bathroom that no other detective found huh?
- Detective Regis: What did he plant it there?
- Nina Chance: I asked you to leave.
- Detective Regis: Did he plant the button?
- Nina Chance: I don't know! Okay?
- Detective Regis: Everybody's lying around here.
- Detective Regis: Okay, so again. Why did they remove you from Kyle's detail?
- Nina Chance: They didn't remove me. One night I heard sounds. Of violence. Fighting. Coming from his apartment. So I went in, and I found him... ... beating up his girlfriend. And it was ugly. And they... ... we... ... covered it up... ... for him. That was even uglier. And that's when I asked to be reassigned.
- Detective Regis: Look Nina. I don't know what I would do if I was you, but I do know one thing. I could not let an innocent man fry for something he did not do.
- Nina Chance: [about the room-sized landsacpe models in his small apartment] How did you...?
- Detective Regis: I'm a homicide cop in the homicide capital of the world. It's cheaper than a shrink.
