[Mitch has taken Frank to an elevator]
Mitch Leary:
Do you believe in the nobility of suicide?
Frank Horrigan:
No. But if you wanna blow your goddamn head off, go ahead, be my guest.
Mitch Leary:
Nicely put, except I don't want to leave this miserable world alone.
Lilly Raines:
West tower, do you have a shot?
Sniper:
Negative, too dark. Target unclear.
Leary:
It's better to die with a friend, don't you think Frank?
Horrigan:
A friend? You're a damn killer, you sick bastard.
Leary:
Don't talk to me like that! I saved your life. You owe me.
Horrigan:
I don't owe you sh*t.
Leary:
I was always honest and fair with you.
Horrigan:
Go ahead and shoot. Go ahead. [the other agents hear him on the ground floor]
Agent Chavez:
It's Frank. [to people reacting at the audio] Quiet! Quiet!
Horrigan:
Come on, dammit.
Raines:
Frank are you talking to me?
Horrigan:
[trying to keep talking to Leary] Well, what are you waiting for?
Leary:
What am I waiting for? I'm waiting for you to show me some goddamn gratitude. [aims pistol as Horrigan moves back] Without me, you'd still just be another sad-eyed, piano-playing drunk. I brought you into this game. I let you keep up with me. I made you a goddamn hero today.
Horrigan:
You didn't make me anything.
Leary:
I redeemed your pathetic, shitty life.
Horrigan:
I just did my job. You're the one with the f***ing pathetic life. Go ahead and shoot, dammit.
Raines:
They can't see inside. If they fire, you'll be hit.
Leary:
I want you to thank me first, Frank.
Horrigan:
Shut up and shoot.
Raines:
All right, Frank.
Leary:
[kneels to him] All right, Frank.
Raines:
Shooters, standby to fire. Wait for my command.
Leary:
Sleep well, my friend.
Horrigan:
Just one thing: Aim high.
Leary:
What?
Raines:
Aim high.
Horrigan:
NOW!
Raines:
Fire!
Leary:
[finally sees that Horrigan was on the radio the whole time] You bastard! [snipers shoot]
