[thuds the bomb on Cobb's desk]

Charles Weiss: Boom!

Inspector Cobb: You think you should slam it around like that, Charlie?

[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.

[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.
