Aikido

Money Heist 3×2

El Profesor: The State has begun this war. And we shall not hide. We shall fight, blow... for blow. And this time... we're going big.

El Profesor: This is a game of chess. We're moving pieces that will force the intelligence agency to move theirs. .... Whoever strikes first... has time on their side, but whoever has to defend against that attack won't have that much time to think about it...

Mónica: Grab your M16 and do what you have to.

El Profesor: What are you wearing, Inspector?

Denver: I'm not calming down. I'm not calming down because I haven't slept for three weeks. We are no Bonnie and Clyde, Mónica. You're a management secretary, not Rambo.

Nairobi: Helsi, are you awake?
Helsinki: Yes, awake. I can't sleep with Jesus Christ watching... Christ is watching those two.

Mónica: Shut up! And listen to me. I am a mother. But I'm also your wife. And I'm a robber, too. Having a kid doesn't mean I have to renounce the other two.

El Profesor: Are you all right?
Raquel: Nervous.
El Profesor: Well, calm down because this is like... playing chess. More like the World Chess Championship, so... It's going to be a long match. The opening... One battle and... two opposing strategies. And then checkmate.

El Profesor: I've been studying the two plans, in depth. I compared both. And I must say that... The Royal Mint is difficult, really difficult, but possible. Even sensible. But to break into the Bank of Spain... is crazy... and, most importantly, impossible.
Berlín: It may seem impossible...
El Profesor: It is.
Berlín: And this seeming impossibility makes it very pretty.

Martín: Damn ingenious Spaniards.
Denver: You must be a perverse son of a bitch to think that out! Show some respect.
Martín: It's a compliment. It's great. It's a masterpiece. Unique in the world. They channeled two streams into the chamber with the gold. Twenty-eight miles of reinforced pipes underground. Why? So that in case someone touches this door... the chamber gets flooded in less than 20 minutes.
Berlín: You touch the gold, and you explode like a toad, you drown, man... A marvel!
Martín: Everything is so discouraging that nobody expects anyone to try and break in. That's why it'll be all right.
Berlín: Actually, it's very simple. If we use talent and science. The best minds in engineering... in physics, in fluid mechanics... Can you imagine them preparing for a job? Excellency applied to robbery.
El Profesor: But how on earth are you going in?

El Profesor: Do you know what aikido is?... Ai-ki-do. Using the enemy's force to your advantage. We alone can't break into the Bank of Spain. The enemy's force is much greater than ours. So... we shall apply aikido.
Denver: How, aikido, Professor?
El Profesor: Whatever we're not able to do will be done by the Civil Guard, the Spanish Army and the bank's private security.

El Profesor: There's no turning back.
