Margaret: It was fate I found you. Mike: Yes, it was. Margaret: Because together... Mike: Yes, we can. Margaret: When I saw that they came after me... Mike: It's all right. You're safe. Margaret: No, I knew that I was being punished. Mike: It was an accident. No. Margaret: No, I knew that I was bad. Do you know why? Do you know when I knew? Because I took your knife. That's when I knew. Mike:What knife? Margaret:Your knife from the hotel room. And I said that's why it happened. Yes, because I'm bad. Because I stole. Mike:What is it? Margaret:Mike, what is it? Mike:Oh, you're a bad pony and I'm not gonna bet on you.
Margaret: Mike?

Susan Ricci: You never know who anybody is. With the exception of me, I am what I look like. Why is that, Mr. Ross? Joe Ross: I think you look just fine. Susan: No, anybody could be anybody mysterious or-- Take that guy who got off the sea plane. Alright? Take him. Joe: What about him? Susan: What about him? Who was he? Joe: I dunno. Fellow who got off the plane. Susan: Just my point. Just my point. We think he's the fellow who got off the plane. Joe: Can't go around mistrusting everybody. You mistrust everybody? Susan: No. Just strangers. Joe: Ah. We saw him get off the plane. Susan: We did not! W-we saw him in a boat which came from the direction of the plane. Joe: I saw him get off the plane.
Susan: Well, maybe that's just what you think you saw. [pause, Joe sits down] I got a picture. I took a picture of you and he's in the background and I believe you'll see, I can't say that I'm sure, but I think you'll see that his little boat just came from the direction of the plane and we have no idea who anyone is.
