Plot hole: When Terry gets back to her computer, after escaping from the spies and cops, the time is after 3pm New York time. If Jack actually is in Russia or Eastern Europe, wouldn't he have already gone to, and been killed at, that 5pm meeting?
Terry: Drag the river! There are killers running around the fucking city!
Detective: How would you like me to wash your mouth out with a wire brush?
Terry: How would you like if I kicked you in the nuts so hard they get lodged in your fucking nostrils?
Marty: My, that was a vivid image, wasn't it?
