- Sugar Ray: The same gentleman who made the pick-up last year is gonna make it this year. Mr. Richie Vento. Vera, I want you to put somebody on him.
- Vera: All right, Sugar.
- Sugar Ray: You got a girl who could turn him out?
- Vera: I have got a girl who's pussy is so good, if you threw it up in the air it would turn into sunshine.
- Sugar Ray: Well, I don't want to meet her.
- Bennie Wilson: I do.
- Sugar Ray: Vera, you know we tally up at 4 o'clock. What is your problem?
- Vera: Kiss my ass, Sugar. I've got to watch my girls until the last trick is gone. And I'm not about to ask no customer to roll over so I can punch some goddamn clock. Now, this is your place, but I am in charge of the girls... and you can just kiss my ass.
- Sugar Ray: [Sugar Ray makes kisses toward Vera] Oh baby!
- Vera: No, stop it,Sugar, stop doing... Don't do that. Stop that!
- Quick: So, baby, how'd we do tonight?
- Vera: We made about 200.
- Quick: 200? Your girls have been back there all night. How'd they only make 200 dollars?
- Vera: You kiss my ass, Quick! I don't ever say nothing to you when the crap table and the bar come up short.
- Quick: Cause the bar and the crap table never come up short, just the girls.
- Sugar Ray: Now, calm down, Vera.
- Vera: Kiss my ass, Sugar! I wanna know what it is Quick is trying to say?
- Quick: I ain't trying to say shit. You're in charge of the girls, right?
- Vera: I am in charge of the girls.
- Quick: Are you in charge of the girls?
- Vera: I AM in charge of the girls.
- Quick: OK, The girls are always coming up short. Alright, let's get this shit out in the open. The girls are always coming up short even when the place is packed the girls come up short. Now, either you or them got a problem with their arithmetic.
- Vera: Are you saying I'm stealing?
- Bennie Wilson: The man didn't say you was stealing, Vera. Now, come over here and sit down and shut the fuck up!
- Vera: You shut the fuck up, Bennie. I would tell you to kiss my ass too, but you probably can't find it you blind motherfucker.
- Bennie Wilson: Fuck you, bitch.
- Vera: [Vera turning and looking at Quick] Me and you got to step out back.
- Sugar Ray: Hey, it was just a misunderstanding.
- Vera: [Vera starts taking off her hat] nuh-uh, No it ain't, it ain't no misunderstanding. Quick just accused me of stealing. and if you gonna take up for Quick in here, we can all be some fighting motherfuckers in here this evening. Bring your ass, nigger. Bring it on. Come on. Bring your ass! Come on, get up and come on, motherfucker!
- Quick: All right, bitch, you want to fight? We can fight then, you fat motherfucker, l'm tired of your shit!
- Vera: Just bring your ass!
- Sugar Ray: Damn, I'm sure gonna miss that place. You know we can't ever go back there again.
- Quick: Man, there's other cities. Find someplace else to start all over again.
- Sugar Ray: But there's no place like Harlem.
- Bennie Wilson: You ain't lying, Sugar. Let me look at it one last time.
- Vera: Don't waste your time, put your blind ass in the car!
- Vera: Benny, you put this orange juice back in here, ain't nothin' left but a swallow!
- Bennie Wilson: Then swallow it and shut the fuck up!
- Vera: You lyin' muthafucker!
- Bennie Wilson: You fat bitch!
- Quick: Vera, put that razor away!
- [pulls gun]
- Quick: I ain't playin' games no more. You put that fuckin' razor away or I'll blow your goddamn pinky toe off!
- Vera: Oh! Now you're gonna shoot me in my pinky toe.
- Quick: I'm not playing with you. I will blow that little black, gnarled crusty, dead motherfucker the fuck off your foot! Now put the razor away!
- Bennie Wilson: Good lord, you're a cool, sweet muthafucker, Sugar. I love to see shit like that.
- Vera: You'd love to see anyhing, you blind muthafucker.
- Vera: You can't keep fuckin' with me that way.
- Bennie Wilson: Bitch, please.
- Vera: Oh, bitch please, my ass!
