Williams:

Han and Roper (Roper learns about Han's operation)

Roper:
But my friend Williams is expecting me in my room

Han:
I wanted to talk to you We will meet your friend Williams later.

Roper:
Ok.

Han:
This is my museum. It is difficult to associate these horrors with the proud civilizations that created them. Sparta, Rome, the Knights of Europe, the samurai. They worshipped strength, because it is strength that makes all other values possible. Nothing survives without it. Who knows what delicate wonders have died out of the world for want of the strength to survive.

Roper:
What's this?

Han:
Oh...a souvenir.

Han:
Up here.

Roper:
A guillotine? Uh, no thanks, this is the only angle I care to see it from.

Han:
If you please.

Roper:
You mean you want me to put my head on that thing?

Han:
An act of faith.

Roper:
Um, I'm a man of little faith, Mr. Han.

Cat:
meeeow.

Han:
Very few people can be totally ruthless. It isn't easy. It takes more strength than you might believe.

Roper:
Now you've got eight more.

Han:
Than there is a point you will not go beyond.

Roper:
Faked out again.

Downstairs

Han:
This way.

Our power plant.

Roper:
Oh yeah....a life time of women, huh?

A man's strength can be measured by his appetites, indeed a man's strength flows from his appetites.

Han:
 Oh no, they are my daughters.

Roper:
Your daughters? Oh I'm sorry I thought that, I misunderstood....Miss uh Han?

Han:
 And also they are my most personal guard.

Roper:
I admire your judgment. Nobody's as loyal as daddy's little girl.

Girl:
Mr. Roper?

Roper:
Uh no thanks, I'll get up myself. Nice meeting you.

Downstairs

Roper:
Opium. Uh Oh.

Han:
We are investing in corruption, Mr. Roper. The business of corruption is like any other.

Roper:
Oh yeah, provide your uh customers with products they need, and uh encourage that need a little bit to stimulate your market and pretty soon your customers will come to depend on you, I mean really need you. It's the law of economics.

Han:
Ha ha ha, Right. And here we are stimulating quite another need.

You wonder why I am exposing so much of myself?

Roper:
I forget what I see very easily. But then, why are you?

Han:
I'm hoping that you'll join us. Represent us in the United States.

Roper:
I'm beginning to understand this thing with the tournament. I mean the whole set up. It's a great way to recruit new talent, uh?

And who are they?

Han:
Refuse found in waterfront bars.

Roper:
Shanghaied?

Han:
Just lost drunken men who no longer care where they find themselves each morning.

You left some rather sizeable debts in America.

Roper:
Dinner's Club hasn't called in my card, yet.

Girl:
