Tear Jerker / The Hire

Go To

  • During Powder Keg, Harvey talks about the regrets he has about his line of work:
    Harvey: Know what really gets me about being a war photographer?
    Driver: What?
    Harvey: I never have time to play with my kids.
    Driver: So how many have you got?
    Harvey: None.
  • The Driver succeeds in getting them across the border, only to find that Harvey has died of his gunshot wound. And then has to go to Harvey's mother to return his dogtags. Try as he might, he completely fails to maintain his stoic demeanor and ends up shambling away from her, mumbling "I'm so sorry."
