[Jack and Lydia encounter a henchman in the stairwell; Lydia aims a gun at him]
Scrimshaw's Henchman : Hold it!
Lydia Maxwell : You hold it!
Scrimshaw's Henchman : I bet it ain't even loaded!
Lydia Maxwell : Oh yeah?
[she aims the gun at the ceiling and fires; it clicks emptily]

Jack Putter : What exactly are we doing here?
Lydia Maxwell : We're waiting for someone.
Jack Putter : oh, who are we we waiting for?
Lydia Maxwell : The Cowboy. I've been tracking his movements for months and he got to the airport about an hour ago and he always stays here.
[points to the hotel]
Lydia Maxwell : I have a feeling he's gonna lead us right to that chip we need.
Jack Putter : Why do you think that?
[looking at her legs]
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : [noticing Jack is ogling Lydia] Hey, knock it off!
Lydia Maxwell : 'Cause he's a fence. He deals in stolen technology, Western technology almost exclusively, which he then sells overseas to the highest bidder. Who do you think introduced Velcro to the Persian Gulf?
Jack Putter : Really?
Lydia Maxwell : [nodding] Mm hmm.

Lt. Tuck Pendleton : I read the note. It's your standard farewell address. I know it by heart.
Lydia Maxwell : Excuse me.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : Lydia. Look, don't leave. You know you love me, huh? Look, I know you're crazy about me. I mean, in a week or two I'm going to call you, you're going to call me, and we're going to be back together again.
Lydia Maxwell : No, we won't.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : I don't get it. I get a little drunk, I make an ass out of myself... What's the big deal?
Lydia Maxwell : Things are different now, Tuck. It just hurts me too much to be with you.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : Lydia! Lydia, I stubbed my toe on the cab when I kicked the door. I think it's broken.
Lydia Maxwell : Better your toe than your heart.
[to the cabbie]
Lydia Maxwell : Can we go now please?
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : [as the cab pulls away, the towel that Tuck has been wearing is pulled away with it, leaving Tuck stark naked] Lydia! Lydia! LYDIA!

[held captive by Scrimshaw and company, Jack has told Lydia the truth about Tuck's situation]
Jack Putter : I don't think she believes me.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : The way you tell it, I wouldn't either.
Lydia Maxwell : You're talking to him right now?
Jack Putter : Yeah.
Lydia Maxwell : [chuckles] No. No. No, I don't buy that. This is getting to be a bit too much.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : Okay, I'll just have to prove it to her. Jack, repeat to Lydia exactly what I say: Lydia.
Jack Putter : Lydia.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : I don't blame you for walking out on me that morning.
Jack Putter : I don't blame you for walking out on me that morning.
Lt. Tuck Pendleton : But it was my heart that was broken, not my toe.
Jack Putter : But it was my heart that was broken, not my toe.
[confused]
Jack Putter : What?
Lydia Maxwell : [now fully convinced] Tuck?
