  • (Kevin Spacey) "All right, look, Ben. I'm not gonna lie to you. You're good, you're very, very good. But you did exactly what I told you not to. You got emotional and then you got stupid. Now you tell me why in the world I'd ever get back in business with you."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Look, I know I should never have disrespected you, all right? I know that. With this facial recognition software, our window of opportunity is closing on us. Now, I need this, Micky. I really, really, need this."

  • (Jim Sturgess) "Plus 13. The count. It's plus 13."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Yes."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "All right, guys, let's get something clear. This is not summer camp and I'm not your counselor. This is real, world-class moneymaking business. Kianna, slots are for losers. Fisher, peelers are stealers. Choi?"
  • (Aaron Yoo) "Hmm?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "You made five grand last night, so would you stop stealing nine-cent pens and everything you can get yours hands on from the maid's cart. It's embarrassing."

  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah. Yeah, I'm in."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Now, who can explain Newton's method and to use it?"

  • (Kevin Spacey) "Is this your first time, darlin'?"

  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, that's all right. I've been winning and losing for years."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "There's one more thing, Ben, and this is important. We're counting cards, we're not gambling. We're following a specific set of rules and playing a system."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Right."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Now, I've seen how crazy it can get at those tables, and sometimes, people lose control. They give in to their emotions. You will not."

  • (Kevin Spacey) "Mmm."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Where?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "You'll find out."
  • (Liza Lapira) "Dun, dun, dun."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "At all times, you don't know each other. Let me say that again, you do not -- know each other -- ever. Oh, and what's our motto?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Don't get caught counting."
  • (Jacob Pitts) "Don't get caught counting."
  • (Liza Lapira) "Don't get caught counting."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Thank you very much."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "What's the count?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Please, don't hurt me."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "I said, what's the count?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I haven't done anything."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "What's the count."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Plus 18."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Oh, you've gotta be kidding me."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Congratulations, Ben. Sorry, we had to make sure you'd keep the count under pressure. Welcome to the team."
  • (Liza Lapira) "Aww. We didn't mean it."
  • (Aaron Yoo) "It's okay, Campbell, I cried inside that bag."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "We're gonna call this, um, the game show host problem. All right? Ben, suppose you're on a game show. And you are given a chance to choose from three different doors, all right? Now, behind one of the doors is a new car. Behind the other two, goats. Which door would you choose, Ben?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Door number one?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Door number one. Ben chooses door number one. All right, now, the game show host, who, by the way, knows what's behind all the other doors, decides to open another door. Let's say he chooses door number three. Behind which sits a goat, now -- Ben, game show host comes to you. He says, 'Ben, do you want to stay with door number one or go with door number two?' Now, is it in your interest to switch your choice?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, wait. Remember the host knows where the car is, so how do you know he's not playing a trick on you? Trying to use reverse psychology to get you to pick a goat?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, I wouldn't really care. I mean, my answer's based on statistics. Based on variable change."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Variable change? But he just asked you a simple question."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah, which changed everything."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Enlighten us."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, when I was originally asked to choose a door, I had a 33.3% chance of choosing right. But after he opens one of the doors and then re-offers me the choice, it's now 66.7% if I choose to switch. So, yeah, I'll take door number two, and thank you for that extra 33.3%."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Exactly. People, remember, if you don't know which door to open, always account for variable change. Now, see, most people wouldn't take the switch out of paranoia, fear, emotions. But Mr. Campbell, he kept his emotions aside and let simple math get his ass into a brand new car. Which is better than that goat you've been driving around campus."

Kate Bosworth as Jill Taylor

  • (Kate Bosworth) "Every night after dinner, my father and I would play. I knew basic strategy before I was, like, nine years old. If I won, he'd take me out for ice cream."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "And what if he won?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "He'd still take me out for ice cream."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Oh, yeah. Sure, yeah, he's your dad."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Uh, I don't like my name."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Why not?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "'Sierra Sommers.' Do I look like a Sierra?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, you have a lot of clever outfits. You'll figure it out."
  • (Liza Lapira) "Just pretend you don't speak English. Then you don't have to change your hair."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Ben, you should feel the thrill of winning more money than you can possibly imagine. I think you should come to Vegas. 'Cause I'm guessing that you could probably use a break from this place."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I can't. I'm sorry. I just can't."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Okay, if you change your mind, you know where we meet."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Okay."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "You're welcome any time. You know, I think the best thing about Vegas is you can become anyone you want."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "What are you doing?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, we're printing money here. What, you think just 'cause Micky left we're gonna stop? No, I can do this. I can lead this team. You know, I'm not the same guy I was back in Boston."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Exactly."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah, exactly. You know, isn't this exactly who you wanted me to be when you first came into the store to buy a tie?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "You were good."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Really?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Yeah. Came in quick off the count. You acted the part. You weren't afraid to play big. And you got out when you were supposed to. Mmm -- and you made more money than Fisher."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "This one's nice."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah. Oh, yeah. This one has actually been treated with our patented Nano-Tex fabric protection, you know, to repel all liquids and stains."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Well, that's really functional."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty functional."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Face me. Stay still."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Despite being tempted by the Nano-Tex repellant, I'm actually not here for a tie, Ben. I came to see you."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "How much do you have saved back in Boston?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I've got $315 grand, all right?"
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Okay. Then why are you still here?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Because I wanna still be here. I like being here. So does everybody else."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "What line of work you in, mister?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I count things."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "My name's Sierra."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Hi, Sierra. I'm Salvadore Sanchez."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Would you like a private dance, Salvadore?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, that all depends how much it's gonna run me, Sierra."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "20 a song, 30-song minimum."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Sounds expensive."

Laurence Fishburne as Cole Williams

  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Tell me, uh -- how's uh -- Good old professor Rosa doing, huh? Oh, yeah. Me and Micky, we go way back. I spent years, chased him all over this town. I gave him beat downs left and right, only to find him at the tables a week later. He was very persistent. And then, one September night, when I was in Barstow at my father's funeral, my casino was taken for seven figures. Can you imagine that? The most ever taken by a single counter in one night. 'Course I was, naturally, unceremoniously fired. Funny thing, though. I never saw Micky Rosa after that. Never."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "You think you can beat the system."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "This is the system, beating you back."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "You wanna count cards, you do it in Atlantic City. Get him up."
  • (Jack McGee) "Come on, kid."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Count to five. Count to five."
  • (Gambler) "What -- What?"
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Count to five so I know you don't have brain damage, you can go home."
  • (Jack McGee) "Start with one."
  • (Gambler) "One, two, three, four, five."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Good. Now, stop counting."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Oh. You understand all this. You go to MIT."
  • (Jack McGee) "Smart boy."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "My name is Cole Williams. And if I ever see you in this town again, I will break your cheek bone with a small hammer, and then I will kill you."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Biometrics. It's sort of like a fingerprint of your face."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "See, when the player sits down at the table, the software, it read this, uh --"
  • (Jack McGee) "Biometric profile."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Biometric profile of your face, cross-references it with a database of counters. Software will probably put you and me out of business, but it still can't do this."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Terry, rewind the tape, I want to see if she signals him to come to the table."
  • (Spencer Garrett) "We don't use 'tape' anymore, old school. It's digital now."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Never mind. Terry, rewind it."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Okay, okay. She's playing the table minimum. Now, in a second, she's gonna do something. She's gonna raise her hand, scratch her head -- there it is. That's the signal. See? She gave him the signal. He comes to the table. I'm telling you, they're working together."
  • (Spencer Garrett) "Nice."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Show me a computer that can do that."

Jim Sturgess as Ben Campbell

  • (Jim Sturgess) "I had a 1590 on my SAT. I got a 44 on my MCATs. And I have a 4.0 GPA from MIT. I thought I had my life mapped out. But then I remembered what my Nonlinear Equations professor once told me, always account for variable change."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "Hello, Micky."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Look, I got money in Boston. A hundred grand. I'll give it to you. If you just let me walk away. I'll walk away."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "I don't want your money, Micky. I don't need it. But I know someone who might be interested. He's good with numbers, too. He works for the IRS."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "So, why are you telling me?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, let's just say a spot opened up on our roster."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "How?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Jimmy got a job at Google."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Jim -- Jimmy got a job at Google?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Yeah, it's catchy, I know."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, if you're making so much money at this, then why did he take it?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Ben, I said Google, not Sizzler."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "In Boston, we had a secret. In Vegas, we had a life. Micky said I was gonna have more fun than I could possibly imagine. And he was right. It was too good to be true. And it felt like it was never going to end."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "You know, tuition fees and living expenses alone cost over $300,000. $300,000."
  • (Josh Gad) "It's outrageous. It's astronomically high. I get it."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "You know, I just thought there was more to life than just money."
  • (Josh Gad) "Well, look at the bright side, I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Why do I have to do it?"
  • (Jacob Pitts) "'Cause you're the donkey boy. You really suck at not asking questions."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "What's a donkey boy?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Oh, there it is. Winner, winner, chicken dinner."
  • (Aaron Yoo) "No, please, keep going. This video's priceless."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I guess you play big or you don't play at all. Right?"
  • (Warren) "Congratulations. How does $8 an hour sound?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Eight dollars? Wow. Wow. That's great, Warren. Thank you. Thank you."
  • (Josh Gad) "You slept with him, didn't you?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yes, I did. Yes, I did."
  • (Josh Gad) "Yes, you did. I'll sleep with him, too, and I'll get $8 an hour."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I seem to keep waking up to you."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Don't get used to it."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I need this money. You have no idea what I went through to get this --"
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "I know, kid, but you're gonna figure out how to get everything you want in this life, 'cause you're smart. So, you're gonna leave the bag."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Ben, give him the bag. Give him the bag, it doesn't matter. Give him the bag."
  • (Laurence Fishburne) "I knew you were smart."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I can't believe how I treated you, Miles. You know, you're my best friend, and I, really let you down. I really let you down. I'm sorry. And I'm happy for you, you know? Winning the 2.09. That's great."
  • (Josh Gad) "Jill Taylor. Really?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah."
  • (Josh Gad) "So, let me get this straight. Money, girls, high-roller suites, clubs, Vegas. Yeah, I think I probably would have blown off the 2.09 Competition, too."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "How's she doing?"
  • (Philosophical Gambler) "Oh, that doesn't matter, man. The way I see it, yesterday's history, tomorrow's a mystery. It's all what you do in the moment, baby."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I was um, pretty nervous, actually. You know, but after a while, it felt kind of easy."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Not for everyone."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah, it's just simple math."
  • (Kate Bosworth) "Good. We can do some serious damage with you."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "The moment we left campus, the concept of vectors and formulas, were replaced with counting, shuffle tracking. Knowing when to hit and knowing when to color out. I was becoming a pro on all levels. I made more money in one trip to Vegas than I would have in 5 years, 9 months, 12 days and 6 hours at J. Press Menswear. In Boston, I was just Ben Campbell. But in Vegas, I could be anyone I wanted."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "You know what I'm gonna do? Huh? You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna throw a half-mill down on one hand. Come on, hit me."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "One night, I'd be the high-rolling heir to a pharmaceutical fortune."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Leon, could you make sure there's some champagne, maybe some strawberries waiting in there for me. I may not be alone."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "The next, I'd be the hottest video game designer on the west coast."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I think the worst part of it was not being able to tell anyone. But for the first time in my life, the world made itself easy for me. And I liked it."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Isn't is true Cauchy stole from his students?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Yes, I heard that. What's your theory on that?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "They say he used his students for their brilliance, then discredited them and stole their equations, stole their hard work."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, that wouldn't be the first time a teacher was accused of that. I think what he's referring to is Vladimir Stupnitsky, yes? He was a student of Cauchy's who accused Cauchy of stealing his four-volume text on this analysis and publishing it under a pseudonym. Of course, nobody knows what really went on down there. They never did prove it, and without the proof, it's a little like it never happened. And, you know, it's a real shame, because if Stupnitsky had just realized that he shouldn't have crossed Cauchy, this was the dispute, if he'd been able to get beyond some of the personal mistakes that were made, I have no doubt Cauchy would've worked with him again, and they could have done great things together. But, as history shows us, some students never learn."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "You should get that eye looked at."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Guys, I'm serious. What are you doing? You're staring."
  • (Sam Golzari) "Yeah, we know."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah, well, can you not. I think it's gonna freak her out a bit, don't you think?"
  • (Josh Gad) "Yeah, I uh -- I got a feeling we're a little more freaked out than she is right now."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Plus 16. Sweet 16. Every card had a value. A high card, minus one. A low card, plus one. The rest, zero. I was studying all day, every day. But it wasn't physics, chemistry and engineering. I was back to simple math, used in ways I could never have imagined. The team had a system. And to go unnoticed, we created a whole new language. Words were numbers, and numbers were words."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I was thinking maybe you should be the other big player. You know, two big players playing big?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Hey, slow down, I haven't played in a long time, Ben. But Fisher's out. No one else on the team can be the big player, can they? And if we do well, if we do really well, then you get your grades back, go to Harvard Med, and I might even get that sabbatical."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, amazing things can be done from the inside, right?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Hmm. Just went back to the head of the class."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Nothing cost too much. Nothing was out of reach. I guess you could say the casino host of fate gave Ben Campbell a major upgrade. Dorm rooms turned into high-roller suites. Bicycles became stretch limos. And college bars that were always filled with frat dudes were upgraded to, well, something more interesting."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "You know, ever since I was 16, I crushed exams. I took on extracurricular. I showed up early. I even sat at the front of the class and stayed late. Man, I gave up everything. You know, I gave up fun. I gave up sex."
  • (Josh Gad) "I don't think you gave up sex."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Okay, maybe not sex."
  • (Josh Gad) "Yeah, you didn't give up sex."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "All right, all right. I didn't give up sex."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Is there a problem with my paper?"
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Well, you found a more efficient method for finding true zero than Isaac Newton and that, my friend, is not so much a problem as it is a major ass-kicking. Although Newton has been dead for over 250 years, so it wasn't exactly a fair fight."
  • (Husband) "What's this gonna run us?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Oh, well, uh, let's see, the belt's $49.95, minus 15%. The jacket's $589,99. The pants, $285,99, minus 10% on both. Unfortunately, the shirt's not on sale, but I can knock off 5% from the $69,99. The shoes were just marked down from $155, so you're looking at $1,042.68."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "I'm really good with numbers."
  • (Husband) "Yeah."
  • (Wife) "I guess so."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Winner, winner, chicken dinner. There it is. Thank you. God, I love this town. I love this game. And, Jim, I might even love you."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "My world was flashing by at a million miles a minute. I had saved over $100,000. Only $200,000 to go."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "But there was still one thing I couldn't get off my mind."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Hey, I let you down, all right. I get it."
  • (Kevin Spacey) "Excuse me? You let me down? I don't care. Let me make one thing clear to you, I am not your father. You are not my friend. This is a business. You were only good to me as the money you make, and, right now it's not worth a hell of a whole lot."

Jacob Pitts as Fisher

  • (Jacob Pitts) "Plus 16."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Sweet."
  • (Jacob Pitts) "Use it in a sentence."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Man, that sugar's sweet."

Jack Gilpin as Bob Phillips

  • (Jack Gilpin) "Ben, last year, the Robinson went to Hyum Jae Wook, a Korean immigrant who has only one leg."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, I have both my legs."
  • (Jack Gilpin) "Well, have you considered cutting one of them off?"
  • (Jack Gilpin) "That was a joke."
  • (Jack Gilpin) "The Robinson Scholarship is comprehensive, as you know. It's a free ride. And free rides don't come easy."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Absolutely."
  • (Jack Gilpin) "We have 76 applicants, this year. Only one of them will get the Scholarship. And most of whom have resumes just as impressive as you."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Right. Uh, Professor Phillips? Some kids grow up wanting to play for the Red Sox. You know, some grow up wanting to be, I don't know, a fireman. I grew up -- Well, really, I just wanted to come here to Harvard Med. And now that I've gotten accepted, it seems to only come down to the money. Which I don't really have. So, what I'm trying to say is that I really, really need this scholarship."
  • (Jack Gilpin) "Did you rehearse that?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Yeah. Like, 14 times in front of the mirror."
  • (Jack Gilpin) "Unfortunately, desire doesn't figure into this much. The Robinson is going to go to someone who -- Dazzles. Somebody who just jumps off the page."

Josh Gad as Miles Connoly

  • (Josh Gad) "Look, guys, we don't date, we don't travel, we don't have any money. The only thing that we do have is the 2.09 Competition. If we can't even win that, what's the point?"
  • (Sam Golzari) "We suck."
  • (Josh Gad) "Did you like take some self-help seminar or something?"
  • (Jim Sturgess) "What?"
  • (Sam Golzari) "Jedi mind trick, huh?"
  • (Josh Gad) "Jedi mind trick. Like that Luke."
  • (Sam Golzari) "You will drink beer."
  • (Josh Gad) "Oh, man. That's brutal. You know, you should just ask her out, man. It's not like she's a rocket scientist or anything. Oh, wait, she is."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "Well, why don't you ask her?"
  • (Josh Gad) "Because I'm already dating someone."
  • (Sam Golzari) "Yeah, your right hand doesn't count, Miles."
  • (Josh Gad) "It does the way I use it. It does the way I use it."
  • (Josh Gad) "I know when you're lying, I'm your best friend. At least I thought I was."
  • (Sam Golzari) "Are you on drugs, Ben? Because there's a group that meets at Sampson Hall on Saturdays."
  • (Jim Sturgess) "No, no. Cam, I'm not on drugs, okay?"
  • (Sam Golzari) "I'll go to the meeting if you need me to."

Spencer Garrett as Stemple

  • (Spencer Garrett) "Okay. So is he counting or is he just getting lucky?"
