Eddie Niles: With no fix, we're gonna need a con with a sure-fire blow-off.
J.J. Singleton: I think we ought to play this guy on the payoff. It's the tightest game we've got and it's not all over the papers yet.
Kid Twist: Lonnegan is a fast egg, J.J. He's not going to sit still for a standard play.
Eddie Niles: So what does that leave us? We can't con the payoff to a banker.
Henry Gondorff: We'll use the wire. Haven't known a poker player yet who didn't wanna bet the ponies.
Eddie Niles: The wire's been out of date for ten years.
Henry Gondorff: That's why he won't know it.
J.J. Singleton: I'm not sure I know it.
Henry Gondorff: It'll take two of us working the inside. Any objections to Hooker as second man?
[getting no objections]
Henry Gondorff: All right, we'll give Lonnegan the hook on the train and play him here. J.J., you think I can get in that poker game?
J.J. Singleton: All you gotta do is show up with a lot of money and look like a sucker.
Henry Gondorff: I also gotta win.

Henry Gondorff: Oh, by the way, any of you guys been passing bad money lately?

Henry Gondorff: If he comes in again, stall him so I can get a look at him
