Teeth: [Teeth unexpectedly shows up on the stairway outside The Driver's apartment] I just want to talk. We need you. You're valuable.
The Driver: I already gave you an answer.
Teeth: [pulls a gun] Well, we don't like that answer. Be friendly. Do things our way.
The Driver: Go ahead and pull the trigger.
[Teeth hesitates; Driver punches him in the face, he tumbles down one flight of stairs]
Teeth: You... you do anything else, I'll come back, I'll kill you.
[Driver wallops him again, sending Teeth down a second flight of stairs]
Teeth: [groggy, bleeding slightly] I'm just trying to do my job.
The Driver: So am I. Go home.
Teeth: I just wanted to talk.
The Driver: You did.

The Driver: [the bank-robber gang pull into a parking garage where The Driver is waiting; the two drivers acknowledge each other] How've you been?
Fingers: I'm okay.
Glasses: You two know each other?
Fingers: A couple of years ago we worked a two-car job.
The Driver: You already have a driver.
Teeth: He doesn't have the balls for driving anymore.
[Fingers looks hurt]
Glasses: You work for a piece, right?
The Driver: Ten thousand up front, against fifteen percent.
Teeth: How do we know you're that good?
The Driver: Get in.
