Quotes8

  • Brian Moreland: When my mother died, I was sitting in the hallway in the army hospital. I was worried as hell. I knew she was real sick. She had this bad kidney thing. So I'm sitting there and my father comes out of the room and tells me that she's dead. He led me to this little chapel they had there, and he sat me down and he told me I could cry for fifteen minutes. He gave me fifteen minutes to cry, and after that I wasn't supposed to cry again. So he left me alone in the chapel and came back... he came back fifteen minutes later.
  • Alex Dwyer: Jesus. What did you do?
  • Brian Moreland: Well, I did what I was told. I cried for fifteen minutes.
  • Alex Dwyer: What the hell were you doing back there?
  • David Shawn: At least I had your ass over the grinder and it's okay enough to thank me, shithead!
  • Brian Moreland: Hut! What's the problem?
  • Alex Dwyer: The problem is that this asshole just shot the town!
  • David Shawn: Hey, Brian, Dungeons and Dragons game tonight?
  • Brian Moreland: Nah, not tonight, Shawn.

  • J.C. Pierce: [the truck won't start] Aw, shit!
  • Alex Dwyer: Want me to check under the hood?
  • J.C. Pierce: For what?
  • Alex Dwyer: I'll know when I get there, won't I?
  • Brian Moreland: Don't let friendship keep you here.
  • Alex Dwyer: Don't worry.
  • Alex Dwyer: I'm half civilian, on my mother's side...
  • David Shawn: When this is over, you and me are going to go round and round.
