Valentine:
So you want to donate to my foundation. You are aware that I wound things down in that area, right?

Harry Hart:
Climate change is a threat which affects us all, Mr. Valentine. And you're one of the few powerful men who seems to share my concerns.

Valentine:
I stepped things down because I wasn't getting anywhere. Every bit of research kept pointing to the same thing.

Harry Hart:
The carbon emissions are a red herring, and we are past the point of no return, no matter what remedial actions we take.

Valentine:
Uh-huh. You know your sh*t.

Harry Hart:
I sometimes envy the blissful ignorance of those less well-versed in their... 'sh*t'. As Professor Arnold always said: 'Humankind is the only virus cursed to live with the horrifying knowledge of its host's fragile mortality.'

[Surprised look by Valentine]

Valentine:
There are not a lot of people who knew about him.

[Short pause]

Valentine:
Do you like spy movies, Mr. DeVere?

[Hart notices Gazelle sitting behind him, pointing one of her bladed legs toward him]

Harry Hart:

Harry Hart:
I always felt that the old Bond films were only as good as the villain. As a child, I rather fancied a futuristic colorful megalomaniac.

Valentine:
What a shame we both had to grow up.

[Valentine smiles]

Valentine:
Bon appetit.

[Valentine and Hart toast with their burgers]
