Quotes11

  • Moira: What they get you for?
  • Kate: We tried to cross the border. You?
  • Moira: Gender Treachery. I like girls.
  • Kate: My God! They could've sent you to the colonies for that.
  • Moira: They don't send you to the colonies if your ovaries are still jumping.
  • Moira: I gotta get outta here, Kate. I gotta do something. I'm gonna fake like I'm sick.
  • Kate: Really bright. Then what?
  • Moira: Then there'll be two guys in the ambulance. They must be starved for it. I'll suck their fucking cocks till they're blue in the face. They'll do whatever I say.
  • Commander: So, what do you think? Why didn't you say something?
  • Kate: I don't think.
  • Kate: So here you are.
  • Moira: So here I am. It's not so bad, really. You get free face cream here. Free booze, free drugs, you only work nights.
  • Kate: Oh, shit.
  • Moira: It's not bad, really. Actually, there's all these women around. I love it.
  • Kate: Do they let you?
  • Moira: They don't care who you fuck.
  • Moira: So, why are you here? What did you do? Why did they send you in? Did you laugh at the wrong dick or something?
  • Kate: I'm an evening rental.
  • Commander: The guys made their move and asked me to go in with them. So, I liked most of the things they wanted to do, so that was it. Period.
  • Kate: Why?
  • Commander: Why? Country was in a mess, that's why - a total mess. All the garbage had kind of risen to the top. You know, we had all these pressure groups running the store, trying to dictate to us. Blacks, homos, you know all those people on welfare.
  • Kate: Women.
  • Commander: Yes, siree, women. So we had to clean it up. We took out a big hose and washed the place clean.
  • Kate: [very quietly mouthing] What's your name?
  • Moira: Moira. What's yours?
  • Kate: Kate.
  • Kate: I'm going crazy.
  • Moira: This is a fucking loony bin.
  • Nick: Have you come to do your duty for the fatherland?
  • Kate: Yep.
  • Kate: [jokingly] You look like the whore of Babylon.
  • Moira: Well, I asked them to get me something classy from Saks Fifth Avenue, but you know what the mail's like these days.
  • Kate: I guess I'm lucky.
  • Commander: Lucky ducky. Better a lucky ducky than a dead ducky.
