Faith Mattis Quotes in Ignition (2001)

Conor Gallagher: [referring to the front door] Really? Was it open?

Faith Mattis: I knocked like three times.

Conor Gallagher: I didn't think I'd left it open.

Faith Mattis: I'm sorry. The washing machine guy let me in.

Conor Gallagher: Well, the washing machine guy had no business doing that.

Repairman: Hey, machine's been shot.

Conor Gallagher: Why do you think you're here - to answer the door?

Repairman: Shooting's not covered by the warranty, sir.

Chief Justice Jarrett: Ahh, General, nice to see you. Have you met Justice Mattis?

Gen. Joel MacAteer: Only by reputation. I read the piece in the Sunday edition.

Faith Mattis: I'm sorry to hear that.

Gen. Joel MacAteer: I was wondering which you found most patronizing, being described as the youngest judge on the federal circuit, or the most beautiful?

Faith Mattis: I'm not sure they said beautiful.

Gen. Joel MacAteer: Well, they certainly should have.

Chief Justice Jarrett: So what do you think of the Pentagon's rising star?

Faith Mattis: I'm told his place on the karmic food chain would be somewhere between a snake and a rat, but of course I ignore that kind of gossip entirely.

Faith Mattis: Conor, there's a bomb!

Conor Gallagher: [out of breath] Again?

Conor Gallagher: Ma'am, why are you telling me all this?

Faith Mattis: Partly because it irritates you and I enjoy that.

Conor Gallagher: Oh, great.

Faith Mattis: But, mostly because I trust you.

Faith Mattis: Justin, who exactly is this?

Justin: Your bodyguard, ma'am.

Conor Gallagher: Deputy Conor Gallagher, U.S. Marshal Service.

Faith Mattis: Nice to meet you Deputy, sorry about the waste of trip.

Faith Mattis: [looks at Justin] Have somebody see the deputy out and make sure he gets parking validation. I'll be in my office.

Faith Mattis: [after she sees her car being towed] Hey... HEY!

[to Conor]

Faith Mattis: That was my car!

Conor Gallagher: I know ma'am, from now on you're riding with me.

Faith Mattis: You had my car towed?

Conor Gallagher: Yell at me on the way.

Conor Gallagher: You're driving a little fast. Ma'am, I still don't understand why you're pissed off at me. I let you drive didn't I?

Faith Mattis: It's not up to you to let me do anything. I made it clear I didn't want a bodyguard.

Conor Gallagher: You're going to have to take that up with my superiors, for now you are my responsibility, so slow down.

Faith Mattis: You're doing it again!

Conor Gallagher: What the hell is your problem! I mean... you're a piece of work.
