Quotes 

• Joanna : What if someone asked you to do one little thing but would affect another passenger on this train? Would you do it?

  Michael MacCauley : I don't know. What's in it for me?

• [last lines] 

  Michael MacCauley : [seeing Joanna reading "The Count of Monte Cristo"]  "What makes a man is what he does when the storm comes." Alexandre Dumas. Read that one a few years back. It's got a hell of an ending. This seat taken? The 6:20 every morning to Chicago. The 5:30 home. You know, I never took your for a commuter.

  Joanna : I'm sorry. Have we met?

  Michael MacCauley : The way I figure it, the people you work for, Alex Murphy goes down, you win. That 16-year-old girl dies on that train, you win. You do your job, disappear, the rest of just collateral damage. You didn't pick me because the witness was on my train. You put her *on* the train. Maybe you even got me fired. Suddenly, I have motive, opportunity, just like Alex Murphy. This wasn't his operation. You played us both.

  Joanna : I'm not sure what you think is gonna happen here, Michael.

  Michael MacCauley : One little thing.

  Joanna : And what's that?

  [he shows her his detective's badge] 

• Michael MacCauley : What happens when you find 'em?

  Joanna : They die. Hypothetically.

• Joanna : What kind of person are you?

  Michael MacCauley : Me? You should probably ask my wife.

• Joanna : It doesn't have to end this way. Think about Karen, Danny...

  Michael MacCauley : Don't you dare mention their names!

• Joanna : [on the phone to Michael]  You had your chance... now EVERYONE dies!
