Quotes
-
Jim Prideaux : Don't look around, Bill.
Bill Haydon : Oh, it's you, Jim. Come to say goodbye? Nice of you. I'm glad to see you haven't lost your touch. Must be in pretty good shape.
Jim Prideaux : Why did you get me back?
Bill Haydon : I couldn't leave you rotting in a Czech prison.
Jim Prideaux : Russian. Why didn't Karla finish me off? Was that out of delicacy to you?
[Haydon says nothing]
Jim Prideaux : Wasn't that, was it? You both thought that a corpse might create a lot more fuss than just another repatriated harmless cripple, didn't you?
Bill Haydon : The shooting wasn't part of the plan, Jim!
Jim Prideaux : No, not the shooting... but everything else.
[Jim breaks Haydon's neck]
