Quotes

Diamond Head

Edit
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: [to Sloane] There's a war going on inside your head, it up to you who win's. If Paul had lived he would have had to battle your brother for you for the rest of your life. As for me, I wouldn't sleep well three to a bed.
  • Sloane Howland: Well?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: You know why I'm here. I tried to stay away Sloane, but I couldn't. Look, I hit you and I'm sorry. It's been hurting ever since.
  • Sloane Howland: Does this mean you're ready to try, how did you put it, sleeping three in a bed?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: I'm ready to sleep two in my bed.
  • [he kisses her]
  • King Howland: [entering and ripping Dean away from Sloane] What do you think you're doing?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: I'm telling Sloane I'm going to marry her.
  • King Howland: I've about had a gut full of you Kahannas!
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: And I've had a gut full of you, Howland. I'm not going to let you ruin Sloane's life. Even if you haven't got a woman of your own anymore, get out of my bed and stay out.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: My brother knows you were born to the purple, but he doesn't know how much you like to wear it.
  • Sloane Howland: Well that's a switch isn't it? What you really mean is will I do right by Paul.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Exactly. Will you run him like your brother runs everything? Will you be his wife or will he be just your husband?
  • Sloane Howland: What cave do you live in? How is it any different for me to be just his wife or for him to be just my husband?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: If someone is wearing the shoes it had better be the man.
  • Sloane Howland: Ha!
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Don't forget Sloane, I grew up with you too, and I took notes. Remember that summer when you were fifteen, up by the waterfall? Do you remember what you did? You took off your clothes and dove in.
  • Sloane Howland: I remember. I said, "Come on in Deano, come on in." And why didn't you? Were you too shocked? I bet you'd be shocked right now.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: I wasn't shocked Sloane. I wanted to.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: [caught off guard] You know what I would have done if you had? I would have scratched your eyes out and said, "I hate you Dean Kahana, I hate you."
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Sure Sloane. I hate you too.
  • Sloane Howland: Oh, Deano. I don't know why, but you bring out the spitting witch in me. One of us must be an awful person.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Both of us. I bring out the spitting witch, but it has to be there to come out.
  • Sloane Howland: And that's with just one pair of shoes.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: All right Sloane, I know how you feel.
  • Sloane Howland: [sobs drunkenly] Feel? That's just it, I don't feel. Anything. Paul must of loved me and I felt was a blank. I don't know how to love.
  • Sloane Howland: [waking up] Dean. Dean!
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Hey, bad dream? You know, you've been pretty free with my name tonight. Once drunk, once in a nightmare.
  • Sloane Howland: Wherever I am, how did you get here?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: This time you sent for me?
  • Sloane Howland: Did I?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Loud and clear.
  • Sloane Howland: Did I say why?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Any woman who asks for a man and doesn't know she's asked for him doesn't have to tell me why. I know.
  • King Howland: [about Mai Chen] How could you lose her?
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Her heart gave out. You lost her.
  • Sloane Howland: I hate the word love.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: What do you know about Paul?
  • Sloane Howland: What do I know? I grew up with him! The King asks me what do I know about marriage, you ask me what do I know about Paul. What do I have to know?
  • Sloane Howland: [as he stares at her] All right, Dean. Paul is no genius and he'll never set the world on fire like you might some day, but he sets me on fire!
  • Koyama: Miss Sloane, you got "number one" bottom.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: You sent for me.
  • King Howland: That's right, won't need that pill satchel, though.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: Oh, I take this along like I do my hand. Anyway, I know who your pill man is - Dr. Cane.
  • King Howland: Yeah.
  • Dr. Dean Kahanna: I thought maybe one of your dogs was sick.
