The Prisoner (US Remake)/allquotes
The Prisoner (US Remake) is a US remake of the British Spy Drama The Prisoner. The characters are, for the most part, former spies and operatives, and therefore intelligent and able to think under pressure. As a result, everything they say is witty. Below is just a small sample of the witty things that have been said by these characters.
You British?
NUMBER 22
Irish.
NUMBER 48
So you're British.
We don't think so.
Low-fat Yogurt? Frightened of putting on weight?
NUMBER 6

Now my best friend Six is out there putting his butt on the line for you, so I want some answers. Now these folks that run Miami, what are they, a government agency, a foreign power? What are we up against?
NUMBER 14
Well, they never gave me a peek at the employee handbook. That would be telling.

The truth will set you free.
Look on the bright side. You may be trapped here but you still have your individuality.
NUMBER 22
Oh, please. If a nuisance like Number Two can break me then I deserve it.
You don't even know this "new Number Two". What makes you think he has this kind of clout? You seriously think he's going to wave his magical spy wand and give you your freedom?
NUMBER 6
Well that's what I need to figure out.
In my experience, if something seems to good to be true, it's best to shoot it just in case.
NUMBER 12

His number is Nine. Like Two, the whole single digit thing.
NUMBER 48
Like Six.

Seven.

... Crap. I can't think of any more.
Listen, I didn't pack enough underwear, so I borrowed a set of your boxers: the blue ones with the stripes.
NUMBER 6
They will never fit you; stay out of my closet.
NUMBER 66
What does that mean?
NUMBER 6
That I am still... myself.
NUMBER 66
Yourself? Myself's a little snug down under, but I got me all packed in.
Six, be glad you didn't have to see that.
I need to find a Tunisian counterfeiter.
NUMBER 22
Miami's very cosmopolitan. You never know who you'll meet next.
NUMBER 6
Warranty? You've had that thing how long? Since the war? Before the war? Which war?
I need it for my poker game.
Jason? Jason Bly. Good to see you. I figured you'd find me sooner or later. Everyone! Everyone! Number two is Officer Jason Bly of the CSS. It is a branch of the NSA performing covert intelligence support for the military.
NUMBER 2
You shouldn't have interfered, Number Six. You'll pay for this.
No, you will.
NUMBER 2
Take off her restraints -- Number 22, we have an apartment waiting for you in residential adjunct 9. That is the wing for high risk residents. High profile villagers get special treatment around here.
