Kable Quotes in Gamer (2009)

[For the first time, Kable is speaking with Simon, his controller in the game]

Kable: What are you, twelve?

Simon: I'm seventeen, thank you.

Kable: This is unbelievable! Why am I not dead yet?

Simon: Because I am a bad-ass motherfucker.

Ken Castle: I'm wired too. I replaced 98% of my own noodle with nano-tissue years ago. But mine's different. It's built to send, to transmit, whereas every other nano-cell that I've put out there, including the ones in your head Kable, are designed to receive. I think it, you do it. We're talking every Slayer, everyone in Society city. I believe your better half would fall under that category, provided they were within range of my transmitters.

Kable: Very nice, Castle. So you got an army of psychotics and deviants to dance around for you?

Ken Castle: You're thinking small, Kable. But not as small as me.

[dips hands in dust]

Ken Castle: See, nano-cells are real small. A thousand times smaller than these dust particulates. You inhale it, they go to work: replicating, spreading like a virus, multiplying in exponentials. Six months time, I can have a hundred million people converted. Ditch diggers, porn stars, and presidents. Not one would be the wiser. A hundred million people who buy what I want them to buy, vote how I want them to vote, do pretty much damn well anything I figure they ought to do. For instance...

[Hackman attacks Kable]

Ken Castle: [while struggling with Kable] I think it... you-fucking-do-it!

Kable: Look at this knife... imagine me sticking it into your gut. Think about it. Make it real!

[Slowly, the knife reverses and Kable stabs Castle in the gut. Castle screams and chokes]

Geek Leader: Oops.

Kable: Kid's gonna get me killed.

Simon: Dude, I'm right here man. I can hear you.

Kable: Listen to me. I don't know who's behind it or why, but I was supposed to die tonight. Lucky for us, I can beat them, but not with you controlling me.

Simon: What the hell are you talking about?

Kable: Turn me loose, kid. You want to win? Turn me loose!

Kable: [slams into a super-sized futuristic computer monitor, while trying to rescue his daughter] Oh, Delia!

Ken Castle: Not bad for video, huh?

Kable: What?

Ken Castle: The latest and greatest, I defy you to tell it from real life... could you imagine porn on this thing?

Kable: Turn me around.

Upgrade Guard: Who aims?

Kable: What?

Upgrade Guard: Who aims? The player or the slayer?

Kable: I'm the hand. Someone, somewhere else is the eye.

Upgrade Guard: That's tripped out, man.

Kable: Sometimes, they take over completely. Move you around like a robot. But that don't work so good.

Upgrade Guard: Why not?

Kable: The delay.

Upgrade Guard: Right, the "ping," they talk about that. The time it takes for the Slayer to respond to the player's commands.

Kable: Whatever they call it, when you're in the game, a slice of a second is the difference between living and dying. When that trigger pulls... it's just me.

Simon: Gibs.

Kable: What?

Simon: Like giblets. Kibbles 'n Bits. Chunks. Pieces. Everywhere.

Kable: These are real humans fucker!

Simon: Death row psychos, so what? They had it coming anyway, right?

Kable: I guess that goes for me too.

Simon: Yeah, but you're different.

Kable: Different. How?

Simon: I don't know, because you're *my* psycho.

Kable: I need you to get me something.

Trace: What, Tillman?

Kable: Drunk.

Kable: [after killing Hackman] You should have let him fight for himself. Maybe then he would have had a shot.

Ken Castle: I think you're missing the point, my man.

Kable: No, no, I get it. You're pulling all the strings around here. Which makes my next move pretty stupid...!

[He lunges at Castle with a knife, but freezes unexpectedly]

Ken Castle: I neglected to mention my smart boys reversed that crack the Humanz worked for you. Easy-breezy, once I had access to their drives.

Kable: [to Hackman] You know your head ain't on straight?
