Delivery Woman

John Wick?
Aurelio
00:20:21

Yeah. Well, because he stole John Wick's car, sir. And, uh, killed his dog.
Viggo Tarasov
00:23:35

That fuckin' nobody is John Wick. He once was an associate of ours. They call him Baba Yaga.
John Wick
00:32:54

This is Wick. Yes, John Wick, that's right. I'd like to make a dinner reservation for 12.
Viggo Tarasov
00:35:57

Hmm. I want to offer you this face to face seeing as how you might find it personal. Would you kill John Wick for two million dollars? After all, you were close.
Red Circle Security
00:49:15

Any sign of John Wick?
Viggo Tarasov
01:07:17

I'll say this, John. They sure as fuck broke the mold with you. (LAUGHS) Ay, ay... You always had a certain... (STAMMERING) audacity about you, you know. Right? Oh, yeah. I can say you're still very much the John Wick of old.
Viggo Tarasov
01:20:50

And while it was open, you had every chance, every opportunity to kill John Wick. And if you had done your job, my son would be still alive!
