- Sonny Crockett: Damn, these birds are noisy. At least they're not in a cage, sort of a natural habitat.
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Kind of like an alligator in a sailboat.
- Sonny Crockett: You just got to learn to go with the heat, Rico. It's just like life. You just gotta keep telling yourself, no matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in.
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Should I write that down?
- Sonny Crockett: Hate waiting, feel like a character in a Becket play.
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Since when do you know Becket?
- Sonny Crockett: Charlie Becket, works down the shoeshine, writes plays on the side.
- Sonny Crockett: Man, it's so hot you could fry an egg on my face.
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Hope I never get that hungry.
- Ira Stone: These days money comes from all kinds of places.
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Yeah, well, my money comes from my pocket. Now do you wanna do business?
- Sonny Crockett: Knowing the answers doesn't make it any easier, does it?
- Det. Ricardo Tubbs: In this job you're lucky if it doesn't make it any harder.
