Charles Weiss : [coming into Walter's office] A nut who knows a lot about bombs. We found this in a playground. Professional. Very cool stuff. You know...
[thuds the bomb on Cobb's desk]
Charles Weiss : Boom!
Inspector Cobb : You think you should slam it around like that, Charlie?
Charles Weiss : It's unmixed. You can't hurt it. This stuff is cutting edge. It's a binary liquid.
Inspector Cobb : A what?
Charles Weiss : Like epoxi. Two liquids.
[puts a dab of the clear liquid on Cobb's desk]
Charles Weiss : Now, either one by itself,
[hits it with his shoe]
Charles Weiss : you got nothing. But, mix them...
[swirls a paper clip in both liquids and throws it at a chair, the mixture explodes violently knocking the chair across the room]
Connie Kowalski : [yelling] Charlie, you're gonna be wearin' that chair up your ass!
Inspector Cobb : [yelling] Christ almighty, Charlie!
Charles Weiss : Like I said very cool stuff. Now, with a package like this, you get a warning. Now, the bomb has to arm itself. You'll see the red liquid pump into the clear before it detonates.
John McClane : How long before?
Charles Weiss : Ten seconds, two minutes, it could be anything. But, once it's mixed, be somewhere else.

Charles Weiss : [finding the school bomb] Well... I'd say you could call off your search.
Inspector Cobb : Can you stop it?
Charles Weiss : I shouldn't even touch it. Who knows what kind of booby traps this thing's got. What about the code?
Inspector Cobb : No word.
Joe Lambert : When do we evacuate?
Inspector Cobb : Simon says he sees one kid leave the building, boom!
Joe Lambert : Fine, there's a chance that somebody's still watching, but we can't stand here with our thumb up our ass waiting for this freaking thing to blow up!

Charles Weiss : [about to cut the wire that may or may not cause the bomb to explode] No guts. No glory.

[Weiss is hardwiring the bomb in Chester A. Arthur Elementary School]
Charles Weiss : Six booby traps, four dead ends, "and a Partridge in a pear tree." Okay, honey. Let's dance.

Inspector Cobb : [after Charlie demonstrates the binary liquid bomb] That stuff has gotta be pretty rare. We oughta be able to find out if any of it's missing somewhere.
Joe Lambert : Already did. Livermore Labs theft over the weekend.
John McClane : He got enough to make another one, Joe?
Joe Lambert : About 2,000 pounds.
Inspector Cobb : Of that?
Charles Weiss : The detonating mechanism could be anything; radio, electrical. Hell, you could use a beeper and phone it in.
