Two lines of dialogue

There are two lines of (English) dialogue in this film that I have never been able to make out. The first is when the Rasta drug dealer is talking to Walker in the bar, right after he sings about San Francisco. He says something like "come on man buy me a...." and I can't make out what he says next.

The second line is when Walker is talking to the kidnapper at the club at the very end, and Walker tells him that this time he will say how the exchange is going to be done. The kidnapper says "Very well" then says something else that I can not understand. It ends with "in your hands, doctor" but I do not know what is said before that.

Anyone know?

According to this guy's interpretation of the script (link at the bottom), the Rasta says "Buy me a Kahlua". This I believe, sounds accurate.

And then, the guy at the end says "Everybody is in your hands", but I'm not sure I agree with that one, there's an extra letter in there at the beginning, almost like "So everybody's in your hands doctor". Who knows?

I think the closed captioning also states "Everybody's in your hands, doctor," but this one doesn't seem right to me, never figured it out.

When walker gives him the wallet the kidnapper asks where he is. Walker replies, "dead". The kidnapper says something but I can't make it out. Sounds like "oceans raining ducks"

I thought it was "Those Israeli dogs."

Maybe the Arab assumed that the French security guys were Israeli agents...I don't know, were they supposed to be? I always assumed they were French. If they were French, then why didn't the Americans also know about the device before hand? Even if they were Mossad, what would their reasons be for not informing the French and Americans what they were working on, especially since they would be operating outside of Israel?
