Murdoch: Funny lady.
Lena: ... Hell. Don't you dare get youself killed over this, you hear me? This is a stupid way to die.
Murdoch: An' I'm only allowed to die in smart ways?
Lena: Exactement. Don't want me to come and kick your ass for dyin', now do you?
Murdoch: I don't want you in this at all. You already earned youself a target, and I can't -- If I step in now, you'll be -- somebody I protect. My property. You can't afford that, college girl. You can't afford any of this.
Lena: Murdoch, do you know why I like you?
Murdoch: I got no idea.
Lena: You treat me like a grownup. You don't tell me I'm too nice. You don't assume I'm too naive to know what I'm doing, or too weak to face the consequences. You don't try and fix things for me when I ain't asked you to fix them. Don't change.
Murdoch: Okay.
Lena: Merci. ... So, not to change the subject or anything -- but know anybody would want an elephant?
Murdoch: Oh, this should be good.
Murdoch: Funny lady.
Lena: ... Hell. Don't you dare get youself killed over this, you hear me? This is a stupid way to die.
