President Sloane: Good evening, Ethan. This is your President. Since you won't reply to anyone else, I thought I'd reach out directly. First, I want to thank you for a lifetime of devoted and unrelenting service; were it not for the tireless dedication of you and your team, the Earth would be a very different place. It might not even be here at all. Every risk you've taken, every comrade you've lost in the field, every personal sacrifice you made, has brought this world another sunrise. It's been 35 years since circumstances brought you to us and you were given the choice -- since the IMF saved you from a life in prison. And though you never followed orders, you never let us down. You were always the best of men in the worst of times. I need you to be that man now. The Entity: The choice is yours: The Entity's future, or no future at all. Briggs: It's a shame about your friend. Then again... you're used to losing 'em. Grace: Mr. Donloe, Bill, even if we could tell you the truth, you wo

Dialogue

Luther Stickell: [referring to the safe house] Sorry about the decor; the Ritz was booked solid. Ethan Hunt: Well, some drapes, a few throw-pillows, and... Benji Dunn: Yeah! Mini-bar? Ethan / Benji / Luther: Foosball table!

Dialogue

Ethan: You just bought yourself a world of trouble, Grace. Grace: The whole world's in trouble, Ethan. You're the only one I trust to save it.

Dialogue

Ethan: You think I'm gonna get the source code and bring it to you? Gabriel: I don't think, I know. I'm gonna let you go, then you're gonna find the Entity's source code and bring it to me in exchange for Grace. Then I'll take control of the Entity -- the proverbial genie you let out. Luther: ...the Rabbit's Foot. Benji: The Anti-God?! Gabriel: It wasn't a biological or a chemical weapon you took from Shanghai. The vial you traded for Julia contained malicious code. The primordial digital ooze from which a weapon evolved. A weapon the East couldn't make work. A weapon the West might never have made on their own. Benji: You didn't know what you were stealing! None of us did! Ethan: But I knew why I was stealing it. They kidnapped my wife. Stealing the Rabbit's Foot was the only way I could get her back. I sank that submarine as much as the Entity did. Gabriel: Without you, Ethan, there'd be no Entity. And if you don't find that sub in the next few days... Grace: It's the end of the worl

Dialogue

Degas: We talked about this! Benji: Ethan wants him alive! Paris: [in French] I want him dead. Benji: ...She's gonna be the death of me.

Dialogue

Luther: What are we gonna do? Retire? Go fishing? This is my mission. This is what I was born to do. Ethan: Luther, I can't-- I can't... Luther: There's nothing you need to say, brother. I know. I know. I'm right where I wanna be.

Dialogue

Bledsoe: Mister... without our decompression chamber, you'll die for sure. Ethan: Sir, your decompression chamber was never part of our plan. Bledsoe: Oh. Okay. What exactly is your plan?

Dialogue

William Donloe: We haven't been formally introduced. I'm-- Ethan: William Donloe. Langley. We met thirty years ago... Almost. Donloe: So you're him. Ethan: I understand I owe you my life. I don't know how to make amends for what I've done to yours. Donloe: That's a matter of perspective, friend. If you hadn't broken into the vault thirty years ago, I'd probably still be there. I'd probably even think I was happy. I never would've found the only home that's ever brought me peace and I certainly never would've met the woman I love. There's nothing to be sorry about. I owe you my life.

Dialogue

Gabriel: You're beat, Ethan. If not today, some other place. Some other time. As long as I have this, wherever I go, you will follow. And the Podkova will come to me. That is written. Ethan: Nothing is written. Gabriel: I'm not sure Luther would agree. Now, tell me I win. Ethan: ...You win. Gabriel: I like the sound of that. Say it again.

Dialogue

Benji: Do either of you have any medical experience? Paris: I kill people. Benji: Yeah, I can work with that.
