IceMan No one leaves the house anymore. No one has sex. The Net is ultimate condom.
Cyberbob So what do U want in a man?
Angela Bennett (Sandra Bullock) Butch, beautiful,
brilliant, Captain America meets Albert Schweitzer. Spends all day dashing
into fray while making world safe for democracy; at night playing Bach
cantatas while curing cancer.
Cyberbob Settle for a guy who puts the seat down?
Jack Devlin sees Angela working on her computer.
Jack Devlin (Jeremy Northam) Is that business or pleasure?
Angela Bennett Is there a difference?
Jack Devlin Not a great deal, if you're a hacker.
Jack Devlin God, we're pathetic, aren't we?
Angela Bennett Excuse me?
Jack Devlin Well, we're here. We're sitting on
the most perfect beach in the world, and all we can think about is where--
Angela Bennett Where can I hook up my modem?
Jack Devlin Yeah, exactly.
Jack Devlin talking about the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's"
When I was about thirteen, I had this sort of identity crisis. I used to
think I was one of the characters.
Angela Bennett You thought you were Audrey
Hepburn?
Jack Devlin No. I used to think I was the cat.
Jack Devlin Computers are your life, aren't they?
Angela Bennett Yes. Perfect hiding place.
Jack Devlin I reckon you've got to try a few
things in life without a safety net. How else are you gonna know you're alive?
Angela Bennett Well, I take my share of risks. Uh-huh. Um, I don't always floss. I rip the tags off my pillows.
Angela Bennett For future reference, you should know that the living tend to interest me just a little more than the dead do.
Angela Bennett You know the story. I thought I was lonely, and he forgot he was married.
Jack Devlin If you'll excuse me, it's, it's time to make the world safe for democracy.
Dr. Alan Champion (Dennis Miller) This is
bizarre. I haven't seen you in so long. What are we even doing here?
Angela Bennett Um, I just figured you would be safe.
Dr. Alan Champion Oh great, so I've gone from
being a self-centered asshole to safe. Thank you very much.
Angela Bennett No, I just figured that they
couldn't, um, trace me to you and that your, your patient records are
confidential, right?
Dr. Alan Champion My patient records! Yeah, I knew I had my subtle charms.
Dr. Alan Champion holding up martini glasses Guess what time it is? Gibsons! Almost. We have no onions, so we'll have to use these: Seldane, the antihistamine of champions.
Angela Bennett Such a nightmare! It's like I'm not even me anymore.
Angela Bennett I just don't, I don't understand. Why me? Why me? I am nobody. I am nothing. They knew, they knew everything about me. They knew. They knew what I ate, they knew what I drank, they knew what movies that I watch, they knew, they knew, they knew what, where I was from, they knew what cigarettes I used to smoke, and, and, and everything they, they did, they must have watched on the, on the Internet, I don't know, watched my credit cards? Our whole lives are on the computer, and they knew, they knew that I could be vanished. They knew that nobody would care, that nobody would understand, and that you would, that it wouldn't matter anymore.
Dr. Alan Champion I figure you'd be hungry, so I
stopped on the way over. I got you your favorite, Chinese.
Angela Bennett Um, it's your favorite. I never
really cared for it, remember?
Dr. Alan Champion Ah, it's immaterial. I knew it was somebody's favorite.
Dr. Alan Champion You know, what's frightening me is, I'm starting to think that you're not delusional.
Dr. Alan Champion Will you be handling the
outpatient care, nurse?
Angela Bennett Well, do you mind?
Dr. Alan Champion Visions of sponge baths dance in my head.
Angela Bennett Just think about it. Our whole
world is sitting there on a computer. It's in the computer, everything: your,
your DMV records, your, your Social Security, your credit cards, your medical
history. It's all right there. Every one is stored in there. It's like this
little electronic shadow on each and every one of us, just, just begging for
somebody to screw with, and you know what? They've done it to me, and you
know what? They're gonna do it to you.
