Max
- Max: Say, listen Doc, I got a new theory about all these suicides. Right?
- Dr. Neil Gordon: Don't hold back on us, Max. We need all the help we can get.
- Max: It's fucked up chromosomes, man. Think about it. All their parents dropped acid during the sixties.
- Dr. Neil Gordon: Well, it beats Simm's theory. She thinks it's nothing but sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
- Max: Shit. That's what keeps people alive.
- Max: This lump over here... This is Kincaid. Now I want you to take a good look. See, he gets himself thrown in the quiet room so often that you probably won't see a whole lot of him. Ain't that right, "Cool Breeze"?
- Roland Kincaid: Right. I do it so I don't have to look at your ugly face all the time.
- Max: Yeah, I love you too.
- Max: [walks in the TV room] Girl, what are you doing?
- Jennifer Caulfield: Watching TV.
- Max: I can see that. Why don't you read a book? You watch too much damn TV.
- Jennifer Caulfield: Research.
- Max: [sarcastically] Oh, right. You're gonna be a TV star.
- Jennifer Caulfield: Wait and see.
- Max: [about to turn off the TV] Well, if Simms catches you up here after lights out she is gonna chew my ass...
- Jennifer Caulfield: [interrupting Max] I gotta stay up, Max!
- Max: Jennifer.
- Jennifer Caulfield: Just tonight, please? I can't handle the nightmare. Not after Phillip. Not tonight.
- Max: Okay. But I never saw you.
- Jennifer Caulfield: Thanks, Max.
