Kyle Budwell : Pick a box.
Lee Gates : What do you mean?
Kyle Budwell : I said "pick a box".
Lee Gates : What happens if I pick the wrong box?
Kyle Budwell : I said pick one!
Lee Gates : I'm not picking a fucking box!
Tech Dave : Did he say "fucking" on air?
Patty Fenn : Are you fucking kidding me? Call fucking security!

Lee Gates : You know what happened. It was a computer glitch.
Kyle Budwell : A glitch! A glitch! A glitch! Shut up about the glitch! All right? What the hell does that even mean? You see, you don't even know. I'm not stupid, Lee. I told you, because somehow these clowns lost $800 million overnight. Overnight. And nobody's even actually explained how. How is something like that even possible, huh? It's not a rhetorical question. I want an answer.
Lee Gates : What do you want from me, man? I don't run Ibis. I'm just a guy on TV.
Kyle Budwell : Shut up, Lee! Shut up! No, no. Do not do that, Lee. Do not do that. You don't get to pass the buck today, Lee. Not today. Not with me.

Lee Gates : You want to sit here and take stock of our lives, Kyle? How about we compare scores? How about we do that?
Tech Dave : The touchscreen. Shit, the touchscreen.
Lee Gates : All right. We got Kyle and we got Lee. Let's start with the obvious. Money. I got some; you don't, I gather. So, that's a point for me.
Patty Fenn : Where are you going with this, Lee?
Lee Gates : But then there's family. I'm divorced three times. What about you? You got a wife? Hmm? Girlfriend, then?
Patty Fenn : Sacajawea, Lee.
Lee Gates : You got a girlfriend? That's nice. The magic of young love. I think we can both agree that's a point for you, since the first number on my speed dial is an escort service.
Kyle Budwell : No, you don't know anything about me. You know nothing...
Lee Gates : I don't need to know anything about you! I know about me. Seven years, three years, fourteen months. The marriages, they get shorter and they get shorter, but settlements, they get larger and larger.
Patty Fenn : [walking over to the studio door] Lee? Look at me, Lee. Sacajawea.
Lee Gates : Hey, Kyle, you see her? That's Patty, my director, and she wants me to shut up. Well, now she's sick of me, too. And that's why she took a job across the street and didn't tell me. People talk. They all leave sooner or later, Kyle. That's just how it works. So trust me, that's gonna be a point for you. What about kids? You got a kid? Hmm? One on the way, maybe? Yeah? She's expecting. It's a blessing. I have one myself. She must be six or seven. I have no idea. I send a check.

Lee Gates : So let me ask you something, Kyle. What about your life is so much shittier than the rest of ours that you get to throw in the towel early? Hmm? I mean, I want to know. You got a decent job. You got two hands and two feet. You got a god damn kid on the way! So before you blow me to kingdom come, I want you to answer one question. What makes you such a giant fucking failure compared to everybody else?
Kyle Budwell : You really gonna stand there in your $1,000 suit and compare scores with me? Huh? My honest job pays me $14 an hour, you cocksucker. So let's start there. You know how far $14 an hour gets you here in New York? Huh? You know how much of that is left after I pay my rent and all my fucking bills? I keep paddling as hard as I can just to stay above water. It takes everything I got! And that's before the kid gets here. How the hell am I supposed to support him, huh? How am I gonna take care of him?
Lee Gates : Well, you'll take great care of him. He gets to grow up being the kid whose old man blew himself up on live TV.

Kyle Budwell : [snaps a pistol at him] I want you to admit it was wrong
Walt Camby : Look nobody was complaining when it worked it's how this business plays out
Kyle Budwell : [cocks the trigger] SAY... IT WAS WRONG
Walt Camby : FINE! IT WAS WRONG!
Kyle Budwell : [throws fake detonator at him] That's all I wanted to hear
-
Lee Gates : Stay close. Don't let 'em get a shot at the vest.
Kyle Budwell : Well, now might be a good time to tell you something about that vest, then. There's not actually any Semtex in there. It's just clay. Bricks of clay.
Lee Gates : What? Jesus Christ.
Kyle Budwell : Yeah. I-I wanted to get your attention, not blow up a god damn building.
Captain Powell : [holding his cops at bay] Stand down. Easy.
Lee Gates : Well, they think it's real. So whatever you do, don't take your finger off that god damn trigger. We're in this together, you dumb shit.
-
Kyle Budwell : [pointing a gun to him while invading the show] Don't move.
Lee Gates : What the hell? Is this a union thing?
