Quotes35

  • Ray Tango: Rambo is a pussy.
  • [Tango grabs a hefty submachine gun and hands Cash a pistol]
  • Ray Tango: Here.
  • Gabriel Cash: Aw, c'mon, how come yours is bigger than mine?
  • Ray Tango: Genetics, peewee.
  • Captain Schroeder: If you really wanted to stare death in the eye, you shoulda gotten married.
  • Ray Tango: [laughs] Is that a proposal?
  • Gabriel Cash: I don't know about you, but I have an aversion to getting F.U.B.A.R...
  • Ray Tango: What's F.U.B.A.R.?
  • Gabriel Cash: Fucked-Up Beyond All Recognition.
  • Ray Tango: When this is over, we have to pay Jabba the Hutt here a visit.
  • Gabriel Cash: I'll bring the chainsaw.
  • Ray Tango: I'll bring the beer.
  • Gabriel Cash: You're getting a little radical here, don't you think?
  • Ray Tango: What's radical?
  • Gabriel Cash: Blowing a man's head off with a fucking hand grenade is a touch much, don't you think?
  • Ray Tango: You got your way, I got mine. You know, I'm kind of glad you didn't want to talk, Requin...
  • Gabriel Cash: You know what? I'll just shoot him in the goddamn leg, he'll talk!
  • Ray Tango: I don't want the leg, I want the whole package!
  • Gabriel Cash: Maybe he doesn't know anything, okay?
  • Ray Tango: I don't really care!
  • Assistant Warden Matt Sokowski: What's widdya friend?
  • Gabriel Cash: He's a little upset. He misses his wardrobe.
  • [then as they leave the room]
  • Ray Tango: I DO miss my wardrobe.
  • Owen: Your Honor, the defendants wish to change their plea.
  • [Crowd is stunned. Judge McCormick bangs his gavel]
  • Judge McCormick: Order! Very well, Counselor. What is the plea?
  • Ray Tango: Your Honor, may I approach the bench, please?
  • Judge McCormick: Proceed, Mr. Tango.
  • Ray Tango: [Gets up, looks at Owen] It's okay.
  • [Tango approaches the bench]
  • Ray Tango: Your Honor, I have been a policeman for 12 years, and I think it's the best organization in the country. At times, I've been accused of being too aggressive at taking criminals off the streets. Well, if that's a sin, then I guess I'm guilty. All the cops I've worked with are good cops. They are... doing a tough job. And I only hope that the outcome of this trial is such, that the whole department is not judged by what has transpired here. Thank you.
  • [Tango returns to his seat]
  • Judge McCormick: Do you have anything to add, Mr. Cash?
  • Gabriel Cash: [Nods] Yeah.
  • Ray Tango: [Grabs Cash's arm] No!
  • Gabriel Cash: Yeah.
  • Ray Tango: No-no.
  • Gabriel Cash: Yeah.
  • Ray Tango: No.
  • [Cash gets up]
  • Gabriel Cash: Mr. Tango has, uh, spoken very eloquently. I wish I could be as forgiving. But I can't, because... this whole thing... fucking sucks! I mean, this is the biggest pile of shit I've ever...
  • [Crowd applauses]
  • Judge McCormick: Order! Order!
  • [Tango has just stuck a grenade down a bad guy's pants]
  • Ray Tango: My contribution to birth control.
  • Gabriel Cash: You know, it's a free country, Tango.
  • Ray Tango: Yeah.
  • Gabriel Cash: And people are free to do whatever they want.
  • Ray Tango: So?
  • Gabriel Cash: Well, your sister is very, very free.
  • Ray Tango: I'm going to kill you.
  • Ray Tango: Do you think he's telling the truth?
  • Gabriel Cash: I don't know. But it's not raining and he's standing in a puddle.
  • Ray Tango: Disgusting.
  • Ray Tango: What are you doing? What are you doing?
  • Gabriel Cash: Relax. Soap. And don't flatter yourself... Peewee.
  • Gabriel Cash: I've got good news and bad news.
  • Ray Tango: What's the bad news?
  • Gabriel Cash: We're almost out of gas.
  • Ray Tango: What's the good news?
  • Gabriel Cash: We're ALMOST out of gas.
  • [Tango just bursts through screen door and lands on his captain]
  • Ray Tango: Captain?
  • Captain Schroeder: Is this the way you screen all your guests?
  • [after Requin breaks down and confesses]
  • Gabriel Cash: You know, Potato Head, you just fell for the oldest routine in the book: bad cop...
  • Ray Tango: Worse cop!
  • Gabriel Cash: This has got to be a mistake. What do you think?
  • Ray Tango: I think my underwear is riding into my throat.
  • Ray Tango: Pleasure doing time with ya.
  • Gabriel Cash: Yeah, I'll never forget that time in the shower.
  • [Requin is holding Cash at gunpoint, when Tango appears behind him]
  • Ray Tango: [English accent] Shame, shame! Don't you know ponytails are out this season? How you doin', Cash?
  • Gabriel Cash: [disarms Requin] Oh, things are just getting better by the second.
  • Ray Tango: There's a party up on the roof.
  • Gabriel Cash: Can I invite Mr. Potato Head here?
  • Ray Tango: Sure! Wouldn't be a party without Potato Head.
  • Ray Tango: Your Honor, I have been a policeman for 12 years and I think it's the best organization in the country. At times I've been accused of being too aggressive at taking criminals off the street. Well, if that's a sin, I guess I'm guilty. All the cops I've worked with are good cops.
  • [to fellow officers]
  • Ray Tango: You are. Doing a tough job. And I only hope that the outcome of this trial is such that the whole department is not judged by what has transpired here. Thank you.
  • Judge McCormick: Do you have anything to add Mr. Cash?
  • Gabriel Cash: [snickers] Yeah.
  • Ray Tango: No.
  • Gabriel Cash: Oh, yeah.
  • Ray Tango: No no.
  • Gabriel Cash: Yeah.
  • Ray Tango: No.
  • Gabriel Cash: [stands up to address the judge] Mr. Tango has spoken very eloquently and I wish I could be as forgiving. But I can't because this whole thing... FUCKING SUCKS.
  • Gabriel Cash: You don't know anything about electricity, do you?
  • Ray Tango: No.
  • Gabriel Cash: As long as you're only touching one wire and you're not touching the ground, you don't get electrocuted.
  • [Thinks about it for a moment]
  • Gabriel Cash: Um, right?
  • Ray Tango: I don't know.
  • Gabriel Cash: I don't either.
