Jack Lyne
- Jack Lyne: I'm 19. I'm institutionalized for 23 days. He gives me a butterfly net. The fucker would have made it a straight jacket if he hadn't thought Dad would have killed him. "It's a joke," he says. "It's a joke" A joke?
- Jack Lyne: Fuck. Boom. Of course, then you're a murderer. Two seconds later you're a fuckin' murderer. The guy is dead and gone and you're going to jail for the rest of your life. So, how much do you have to hate somebody that spending the rest of your life in jail is worth that moment of sick pleasure of blowing his brains out?
- Jack Lyne: Fuck. Man. Did you ever hate somebody so much you could actually shoot them? I mean, so much, like a bullet up the ass or a gun in the spinal cord, actually give you a feeling of richness and pleasure, rather than horror and disgust?
- Julia Hirsch: You're an idiot if you listen to that. When someone says, "Don't call me," you call. What's wrong with you?
- Jack Lyne: I'm literal?
- Pharmacist: You guys murdering someone?
- Brautigan: Come on, man, rigor mortis is settin' in here.
- Jack Lyne: I might.
- Jack Lyne: Why do men think that they can treat women so badly.
- Julia Hirsch: Because they can. It's sanctioned abuse, under the guise of 'we know what's good for you'. A kind of neocolonialism by proxy. That's actually redundant, but, whatever.
- Jack Lyne: So, it's just muscle strength? I mean, we're like gorillas?
- Julia Hirsch: Yeah. Because we women are exposed. You men get to keep your stuff hidden. Believe me, if you had to walk around your sexual power on your chest for all the time, for everyone to see, like we do...
- Jack Lyne: Yeah?
- Julia Hirsch: Well, there'd be a lot fewer guys struttin' around actin' like they have big dicks when they don't.
- Jack Lyne: That's the problem. You cannot forgive him. You fucking hate his guts. You *love* to hate him. That's where the satisfaction of sticking a gun up his ass would come from.
- Jack Lyne: We're gonna go to Brentwood. We're going to see Julia.
- Brautigan: Julia Hirsch?
- Jack Lyne: How many Julia's do I know?
- Brautigan: Brentwood?
- Jack Lyne: Yeah, her father lives there.
- Bradbury: Why do you want to see him.
- Jack Lyne: I hear he gives good blow jobs.
- Bradbury: I hear she does.
- Jack Lyne: Not for me.
- Brautigan: She doesn't.
- Jack Lyne: She does, but I would never say that.
- Sol Hirsch: Jack, I think your mother would like to speak with you.
- Jack Lyne: Oh, yeah? Well, what does she want? Wedding tips? Grooming tips? Tips on the afterlife? Lamaze class registrations? Business tips? Sex tips? What does she want?
- Julia Hirsch: You're gonna drip outta me all night.
- Jack Lyne: What?
- Julia Hirsch: Unless you have a condom, which is improbable, your cum will drip outta me all night.
- Jack Lyne: I see.
- Julia Hirsch: Not necessarily an unpleasant phenomena.
- Jack Lyne: Did you ever see that movie? "The Last House on the Left"? Wes Craven, Sean Cunningham, Ingmar Bergman. It's very political. It's about the death of the nuclear family, the loss of innocence in America. You ought to check that out, Sol. You might really dig it. I think that you might really - respond to it.
- Jack Lyne: [sarcastic] Mom, I'm just ecstatic. My uncle, my father. My uncle, my father. My uncle, my father.
