Do you have ID?
– Marie
Not really.
– Jason Bourne

Thanks for the ride.
– Jason Bourne
Any time.
– Marie
Well, you can come up, and you can… or you could wait here. I – I can go check it out, but you could wait…
– Jason Bourne
Uh, no, no…
– Marie
You could wait…
– Jason Bourne
…no, no!
– Marie
Um, with you, you would probably just forget about me if I… stayed… here.
– Marie
How could I forget about you?
– Jason Bourne
You’re the only person I know.
– Jason Bourne

Who am I?
– Jason Bourne
You’re U.S. Government property. You’re a malfunctioning $30 million weapon. You’re a total goddamn catastrophe, and by God, if it kills me, you’re going to tell me how this happened.
– Conklin

I don’t want to do this anymore.
– Jason Bourne
I don’t think that’s a decision you can make.
– Conklin
Jason Bourne is dead, you hear me? He drowned two weeks ago. You’re gonna go tell ’em that Jason Bourne is dead, you understand?
– Jason Bourne
Where are you gonna go?
– Conklin
I swear to God, if I even feel somebody behind me, there is no measure to how fast and how hard I will bring this fight to your doorstep. I’m on my own side now.
– Jason Bourne

Let’s ask Marie what she wants to do.
– Conklin
Actually, I don’t think she gives a shit. She’s dead.
– Jason Bourne
I’m sorry to hear that. How did that happen?
– Conklin
She was slowing me down.
– 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.
– Jason Bourne
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.
– Marie
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

Look, I’m… you’re acting like I’m trying to burn you here. I’m just trying to do the right thing.
– Jason Bourne
Nobody does the right thing.
– Marie

Look at this. Look at what they make you give.
– The Professor

You move, you die.
– Jason Bourne
Bourne.
– Conklin
Gun down.
– Jason Bourne

I guess you’re not home.
– Marie

You sent me to kill Wombosi.
– Jason Bourne
Kill Wombosi? We can do that any time we want. I can send Nikki to do that, for Chrissakes. Mr. Wombosi was supposed to be dead three weeks ago. He was supposed to have died in a way where the only possible explanation was that he’d been murdered by a member of his own entourage. I don’t send you to kill. I send you to be invisible. I send you because you don’t exist.
– Conklin

I told you to come alone, but I guess that was too hard. So try this – I’m gone.
– Jason Bourne

He killed our man.
– Nicolette
What, in the apartment?
– Conklin
Yeah.
– Nicolette
Well, you got to clean that up.
– Conklin
No, I can’t clean it up; there’s a body in the streets.
– Nicolette
So?
– Conklin
There’s police. This is Paris.
– Nicolette

I work alone, like you. We always work alone.
– The Professor
