The Manchurian Candidate (2004) Soundboard Edit

Al, it's Ben Marco. Are you in there?

An entire company of the enemy.

And anyway, I remember what we did in Kuwait. I remember it perfectly.

And Boston as the last stop...

And I got a good feeling they put one in you too.

And I'd be lying to you if I said

And on Arthur to somehow hold the centre, where he is soft at best.

And our guide, a civilian contractor.

And that tie...

And then surrender yourself to federal authorities.

And then...

And they took us up to this place.

And this Dr

Are you okay?

Assessing troop strength.

At a flick of a switch,

At least, that's how the rulebook says it's supposed to happen

B, the Internet,

Ben, the person that did this, what was his name?

Ben!

Ben.

Besides all the depleted uranium, I mean.

Better and better.

Between his dreams of your exploits in Kuwait

Bow out gracefully.

But he does.

But I dreamed something else.

By implanting memory or adjusting the synaptic connections.

Captain Marco!

Changed, I mean.

Congressman, good luck

Cue screens

Did he have a name?

Do you remember me?

Do you remember me?

Don't touch me.

Don't.

Dragging his ass so every Tom, Dick and Qaddafi can take a whack at it.

Everybody in? Atkins, Atkins?

Excuse me. This is unnecessary.

For coming to speak to us about the Medal of Honor

For his presence on Raymond Shaw's famed Lost Patrol.

Full blown schizophrenia.

Get out!

Good morning to you all,

Good.

Governor Arthur, do you have any comment on this tragic event?

He saved our lives.

He's been stalking Raymond, the FBI is all over this already

He's had real success with Gulf War Syndrome.

Hello, captain.

Help!

Hey, are you okay?

How much do you actually know about your friend?

I am the enemy, Major Marco

I can pay for my medicine...

I can't even imagine why.

I don't know what they call it.

I don't know.

I don't wanna know. You don't wanna know.

I just need a few minutes of your time.

I know.

I know. Hello, captain.

I mean, I know you're busy, congressman...

I mean, it could mean something else.

I think they made me kill somebody too.

I'll be right outside, sir.

I'm dying to know..

I'm not crazy, Shaw.

If he dies, Raymond Shaw becomes the new president, doesn't he?

If they can't see what I am at the core.

In Chechnya four years ago

In the hour of her greatest need

Including you?

Inside! Inside!

Is unconstitutional. Was it you, Gordy?

It's clean

It's not Gulf War Syndrome.

It's not your fault, Raymond. It's not your fault.

It's preposterous.

It's under the skin just shy of the scapula.

Just back up! Just back up.

Kill him.

Leeching is.

Major.

May have been trying to rescue Jordan

Most selfless human being I've ever known.

Mother happened.

Mother, I..

Move it, move it, move it!

My men, they trusted me with their lives, you know?

No place like home, right?

No, I thought we settled it this morning.

No, the captain enjoys not going down the highway,

No.

No.

No. I gave them one opportunity and that was unusually generous of me.

No. No. I'm sorry

Nobody said you did.

Not bad, Raymond. Business is not bad.

Not even to push the nomination to a second ballot.

Not even you, senator, will do that, you are bluffing.

Not everything that I can remember.

Oh, don't do that

Oh, Ellie, that's a bit extreme.

Oh, that's good

Oh, yes, of course you do.

Oh?

Oh?

Our brain cells got obliterated, Raymond.

Our enemies have won.

Pardon me. Is this seat taken?

People loving war hero with a great deal to offer his party.

Personal reasons, an obscure illness

PFC Edward Ingram

PFC Robert Baker III were killed.

Please.

Political thuggery to shovel me onto the presidential ticket.

Private Ingram, stand up

Raymond

Raymond Shaw is probably the kindest, bravest,

Raymond.

See, I remember it happened like you just said,

Senator Jordan was a statesman of the highest integrity

Shocked to learn

Since 1917, there have only been 970 Medals awarded,

Sir?

Sits quite well with the American people.

So anyway, I'm on vacation.

So, what you'll feel is a little discomfort in the form of pressure

So, what, you thought it was okay to just break in and wait for him?

So...

Somebody put an implant inside me. I found it this morning.

Someone our CIA turned to

Somewhere right now, in some small American town,

Strong supporters, congressman.

Suffocate Private Baker. Kill him.

Talk to one of the doctors.

Thank you very much for taking this meeting.

Thank you.

That some of the men from our unit have been having.

That the African nation's military regime had secretly resumed

That will be used in the forthcoming election, was disrupted last night,

That you know of.

That you must be just about the loneliest person on this earth.

That your son repudiates so many of your more

The celebrated war hero,

The cloying adulation of the little people.

The five term senator

The Mile High City has suffered a series of brutal attacks

The name of the next vice president of these United States:

The presidential rival, incumbent Vice President Nelson

The supporters of presidential hopeful Vice President Edward Nelson

They're the latest target of SEC corruption probes,

They're... They're... They're gigantic.

This is how you play Texas Hold ‘em.

Trust fund terrorists, fallen Communist dictators,

Trying to sort this thing out

Unfortunately, this is as private as it gets for me now.

Very good.

Watch it. Watch it. Shut up.

We can arm them with a young, vibrant vice president.

We fished him out of the Potomac River

We trust you with our technology

We're going to the police, the newspapers, whatever it takes.

We're on a routine recon inside Iraqi controlled terrain,

Well, Governor Arthur and I believe

Well, he's in politics now and I'm just gonna

Well, sir, I'm just... I'm just proud that I was there.

Well, you may have noticed I've changed a bit myself.

What happens to Ben?

What?

What?

What's your margin of error, Vaughn?

Where he won the Congressional Medal of Honor for combat bravery.

Where is she, your cousin?

Who's that?

Will you flip another card. This is the fourth fucking...

Won the Medal.

Yeah, but judging from your file here, apparently,

Yeah.

Yes, he's right here

Yes, Mother.

Yes, well, I see the captain enjoys the road less traveled.

Yes.

Yield your spot on the ticket and go into seclusion.

Yo, give me two cards, man.

You can almost see a tree.

You don't know your shit from your oatmeal, my friend.

You gonna play the cards or you gonna hatch them?

You got a problem?

You know we are on the brink of another cataclysm,

You said the Army implants, they were for

You were in the Army

Ben. Are you hungry? Starving.

Bob. You know my daughter. Tom, I can't believe it.

Call a meeting? Now, look, look, look.

Captain Marco! Raymond Shaw is the most selfless

Congressman! Congressman!

Dreams? Yes, sir.

I thought you were smarter than that. Raymond, please

Implants. That's what I said.

Leave me alone. Sir, we should...

Mark. Eleanor.

Thank you. Really appreciate it.

This one? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Watch where you're going! Sorry.

You sure everything's all right? Yes.

... we can offset the ravages of dementia

...an implant device...

...fragile.

...there are key players...

...there's something I want you to have.

...we had it pretty rough over there, Melvin.
