  Kate Mullen : I want to listen.

  [Kate puts on headphones] 

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : That's enough.

  Tom Mullen : No. Put him back on. I want- I want to talk to him.

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : You just did. Now, you listen, real, real good. You've got one more chance to pay up, or you're never gonna talk to him again. No more fucking around. This is it. Right now. What's it gonna be?

  Tom Mullen : ...No. This is bullshit. You're not gonna touch him. You can't be that stupid. Do you have any idea the reign of shit I can put on you?

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : Look at your wife. Look at her face, motherfucker. Do you know what I can do to your boy?

  Tom Mullen : Is it dark where you're calling from? Got the shades drawn? Kind of like a cellar, right? Like a cave? Well, you better get used to that. You better get used to crawling in the dark for the rest of your days, because I am gonna get the best group of manhunters in this country, and I am gonna dedicate my life to tracking you down.

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : Hey, hey, get your head out of your ass! You think you can threaten me, huh? Who do you think you're dealing with? Give me the money!

  Tom Mullen : Fuck you and your two million! Don't you understand English, you useless piece of shit? No money! None!

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : Let me tell you something. You think you're suffering now, huh? You got no idea what suffering is. If I don't get the cash in one hour, this kid is dead!

  Tom Mullen : I don't get my son back, and I mean real soon, you better kill yourself, because when I catch up with you, I'm gonna take my goddamn time. By the time we're finished, you're gonna wish you weren't born! I'll have your head on a fucking pike, do you understand me?

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : Fuck you! I'll fucking kill him right now!

  Kate Mullen : I want to talk.

  Tom Mullen : You kill him, you kill yourself, you motherfucker! GIVE ME BACK MY SON!

  Kate Mullen : Hello?

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : You want him?

  Tom Mullen : Yes.

  Detective Jimmy Shaker : You want him?

• Sean Mullen : Seems like someone's always mad at you.

  Tom Mullen : The way that seems?

  Sean Mullen : [Sean nods his head]  Mm-mmm.

  Tom Mullen : Ohoy, I guess that... you're not mad at me are you?

  Sean Mullen : No.

  Tom Mullen : Well, I can, I can fix that.

  [Starts tickling Sean] 

• Sean Mullen : [through the loud rock music]  Can I have a bar of chocolate?

  [sees someone familiar]

  Maris Conner : [really tough and mean]  No, you don't! Don't look at me! You don't know me!

  [puts fresh tape over his eyes] 

  Maris Conner : What? Do you think this isn't happening? What? You think your dad's gonna come in and save you? Is that what you think? Well, he ain't. Nobody's coming. All right? You understand that? Nobody's coming. Because this is it for you.

• Sean Mullen : [at hospital]  Turn on the lights! Please! Turn on the lights! I don't like the dark!

  Tom Mullen : Okay. Okay. We'll keep them on.
