My pick quotes: Con air
Larkin: [tosses a folder onto a table] Here’s the jacket on Cameron Poe. His wife’s on the way here now. A U.S. Ranger, highly decorated. Did a litte hellraising when he was a kid, but nothing serious.
Duncan Malloy: Explain to me why any of this matters.
Larkin: Fact 1: we’ve got a plane up there filled with killers, rapists, and thieves and we’ve got this guy Cameron Poe: in on an involuntary manslaughter beef, non-gang affiliated. He’s a parolee hitching a ride home. Fact 2: Poe has a chance to get off the plane, doesn’t do it. Why? Fact 3: our guard Falzon said a convict named Cameron Poe planted Sims’s tape recorder on him.
