Dialogue
Darius: [Darius is speaking to Lola, a car shop owner and his ex-girlfriend, about the need for a new truck] Besides, if we're gonna roll, we're gonna need something with a little more muscle. Something nasty.
Lola: [smirks] I can do nasty.
Darius: [smiles at Lola] I know you can.
Toby Lee Shavers: You want me to hack in? To The U.S. Department of Defense? We're talking 500 acres of hardware. Cray supercomputers, encryption chips, not to mention more firewalls than the NSA, CIA and the IRS combined.
Darius: Exactly.
[hands his bag of chips to Lola]
Toby Lee Shavers: Hold my chips.
Maurice: I'm not goin' out without a fight.
Webster: He's retarded!
Maurice: Key's in the truck. Move the level, 'cause the brakes get stuck.
Toby Lee Shavers: Hi, I'm Agent Shavers. We'll be commandeering your truck today.
Webster: Man, we can't let anybody know a white guy hijacked us.
Maurice: We'll say it was 75 black guys.
