▶ Staff A : Excuse me there, Miss. Can I have a word? (in the airport)
▷ Martine : Yes.
▶ Staff A : Where have you been?
▷ Martine : Morocco.
▶ Staff B : I'll have to check your underwear.
▷ Martine : Be my guest.
▶ Staff A : We found what we were looking for.
▷ Martine : Found what? What were you looking for? (Calling) Oh, Tim. Thank God. I'm in a spot of bother.
▷ Martine : What have you been up to?
▶ Terry : Nothing much. You?
▷ Martine : I was in Morocco recently.
▶ Terry : Business or pleasure?
▷ Martine : Bit of both. Drinks are on me.
▶ Terry : So, we gonna sit here all night making small talk?
▷ Martine : I know you, Terry. And I know your mates. You've always been looking for the big score, the one that makes sense of everything. I have it for you.
▶ Terry : What?
▷ Martine : A bank.
▶ Terry : A bank? As in rob? How would you know about a bank?
▷ Martine : I've been seeing this guy, runs his own business--security systems. Next month, they're installing new alarms in a bank in Marylebone. Seems like the trains have been setting off the tremor alarms in the vault and they've had to turn them off, so for a week or so, they won't have any.
▶ Terry : Now, why would he tell you all this?
▷ Martine : We were having a laugh about it. "Imagine if half the villains in London knew about this," he said, and I thought, "I know half the villains in London. I grew up with some of them."
▶ Terry : Look. Me and my mates have been involved with the odd bit of skullduggery, but can you see us tooled up, taking on a bank like the James gang?
▷ Martine : This isn't about waving a water pistol at a cashier's head. This is about getting into the basement where the deposit boxes are, hidden, secret wealth--money and jewels that are safe to steal because poeple won't report it.
▶ Terry : No, no, no. We can't talk about this here.
▷ Martine : It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Terry. We can't pass it up.
▶ Terry : Didn't expect this from you tonight, Martine.
▷ Martine : What did you expect, eh?
▶ Terry : I'll have to think about it.
▷ Martine : Better get off to your stag party.
(after Terry left)
▷ Martine : Tim. What do you think?
▶ Tim : Is he up for it?
▷ Martine : Maybe.
▶ Tim : Cheers, Gorgeous.
