Jason Bourne : Who has a safety deposit box full of money and six passports and a gun? Who has a bank account number in their hip? I come in here, and the first thing I'm doing is I'm catching the sightlines and looking for an exit.
Marie : I see the exit sign, too. I'm not worried. I mean, you were shot. People do all kinds of weird and amazing stuff when they are scared.
Jason Bourne : I can tell you the license plate numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you that our waitress is left-handed and the guy sitting up at the counter weighs two hundred fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab or the gray truck outside, and at this altitude, I can run flat out for a half mile before my hands start shaking. Now why would I know that? How can I know that and not know who I am?

Jason Bourne : [Getting ready to leave Marie's car in front of his apartment house] Thanks for the ride.
Marie : Any time.
Jason Bourne : [after a pause] Well, you can come up, and you can... or you could wait here. I - I can go check it out, but you could wait...
Marie : Uh, no, no...
Jason Bourne : [as she is saying no] You could wait...
Marie : ...no, no!
Marie : Um, with you, you would probably just forget about me if I... stayed... here.
Jason Bourne : How could I forget about you?
[laughs]
Jason Bourne : You're the only person I know.

Jason Bourne : What happened?
Marie : Nothing.
Jason Bourne : Did something go wrong?
Marie : I've got the records. This guy at the front desk was smiling at me, so I thought, all this trouble, maybe it's easier to just ask for them.
Jason Bourne : You have the bill?
Marie : [pulling paper from pocket] He made me a photocopy.
Jason Bourne : [incredulous] You just asked for it?
Marie : I said I was Mr. Kane's personal assistant.
Jason Bourne : [pause] Oh. Okay. Good thinking.

Jason Bourne : [during a car chase] So...
Marie : What?
Jason Bourne : ...we got a bump coming up.
[drives the car down a flight of stairs]
-
Jason Bourne : Look, I'm... you're acting like I'm trying to burn you here. I'm just trying to do the right thing.
Marie : Nobody does the right thing.
-
Marie : I guess you're not home.

Marie : [Jason Bourne meets Marie for the first time, when she is about to get into her car. She is suspicious of him] What are you looking at?
Jason Bourne : I heard you inside.
Marie : What?
Jason Bourne : The consulate. I heard you talking? I thought maybe we could help each other.
Marie : How's that?
Jason Bourne : You need money. I need a ride outta here.
Marie : I'm not running a car service just now, thank you.
Jason Bourne : I'll give you ten thousand dollars for driving me to Paris.
Marie : [She says in German] What, do you think I am, a fool?
Jason Bourne : [He replies in German] You'd be a fool not to take it.
[He holds up a packet of dollar bills]
Marie : What is this, a joke? Some kind of scam?
Jason Bourne : No, it's no scam.
[He tosses her the packet of bills]
Jason Bourne : And I'll give you another ten when we get there.
Marie : Jesus.
[while she leafs through the bills, a police car with siren wailing passes them, and he quickly turns away]
Marie : Is that for you?
Jason Bourne : Look. You drive, I pay, it's that simple.
Marie : Scheisse. I got enough trouble, okay?
Jason Bourne : Okay. Can I have my money back?
[She looks down at the wad of bills again. A moment later, he is in the passenger seat while she drives]

Jason Bourne : I don't wanna know who I am any more.
Marie : Shh.
Jason Bourne : I don't care. I don't wanna know.
Marie : Come on, we'll...
Jason Bourne : Everything I found out, I wanna forget.
Marie : It's okay.
Jason Bourne : I don't care who I am or what I did.
Marie : It's okay.
Jason Bourne : We have this money. We can hide. Could we do that? Is there any chance you can do that?
Marie : [pause] I don't know. Come on.
-
Jason Bourne : Whatever we do, we have to do it together. We have to be...
Marie : We? The only thing we had in common was that neither one of us knew who you were! We are past that now.
Jason Bourne : Marie! Listen to me! The police will find us, and the people who took that picture in the Embassy, the people who killed Wombosi, they are going to come here and they are gonna kill us.
Marie : The people you work for!
Jason Bourne : I will take you wherever you need to go. I will take you there; I will leave you there. You can do whatever you want, you never have to see me again. But not here. If we stay here, we die.

Marie : He went out the window... why would someone do that?
-
Marie : ...it was amazing. It was just amazing for about three months, until it turned out that this uh, jerk, who had fronted us the lease was actually shining everyone on and...
[stops]
Jason Bourne : And what?
Marie : What do you mean, what? Listen to me; I, I've been speed talking for about sixty kilometers now. I, I talk when I'm nervous, I mean, I, I talk like this when I'm nervous. I'm gonna shut up now.

Marie : [Rhetorically] Who pays $20,000 for a ride to Paris?
