Jeremy Renner: Mike McLusky

Quotes 

• Paul Selig : Did you find the case?

  Mike McLusky : The metal case, right?

  Paul Selig : Yeah.

  Mike McLusky : Yeah, yeah. I found it. You know what's in it? Twenty-six fucking bodies wrapped in a fucking cocoon, Paul!

  Paul Selig : You found what?

  Mike McLusky : I got a lot of problems, but stuttering is not fucking one of them!

• Paul Selig : You have to go back out. You have to find...

  Mike McLusky : Are you kidding me? There's 50 cops out there right now. As soon as the feds show up, they're gonna park a goddamn satellite above that property, okay? You know, it doesn't fucking matter. You know what fucking matters? Your client is gonna be charged with accessory to capital murder times twenty-fucking-six. And then when they're done with that, they're gonna charge him with capital murder times three federal fucking agents. They're gonna be so tired of charging this motherfucker, they're gonna forget all about the kidnapping charges, right? The guy's done! Fucking done, and so am I.

• Mike McLusky : If I'm gonna go to prison, it's gonna be for something I fucking did, you understand me? And you have my word, I'm gonna do it to you.

• Mike McLusky : I know what you're doing, Pete. And you need to fucking rethink it. Killing a guard...

  Duke : -Sends a message.

  Mike McLusky : Yeah, you're damn right it does. What message? 'Take the fight to the streets.' This fucking street right here. They will not knock. They will shoot what they see. And then the party in prison? That's just fucking over. No more tennis balls heading over the wall. Why? There's no more fucking yard. It's gone! Kingstown becomes Corcoran. You will all be in an 8 by 8 cell, wondering if you'll ever see the sun again before you die. You know what the answer is? Fuck no, you won't. They let you sell drugs. They *let* you. They let you cook meth in the cells. They let you trick punks, okay? Because it's easier not to fight you, 'cause they don't care! They don't give a fucking rat's ass! It's just their job! You give them a reason to care, give them a fucking reason to care, you're gonna be begging for the fucking death penalty.
