Joshua Jackson: Charlie

D3: The Mighty Ducks

Charlie

Gordon Bombay: I was like you, Charlie. When I played hockey, I was a total hotshot, tried to take control of every game. I wound up quitting. So I tried the law. Same thing. I rule in the courtroom, but inside, I'm a mess. I started drinking. Man, I was going down, but then this great thing happened. Maybe the best thing ever. I got arrested and sentenced to community service. And there you were, Charlie and the Ducks. And as hard as I fought it, there you were. You gave me a life, Charlie and I want to say thank you. I told Orion about all this when I talked to him about taking over. I told him that you were the heart of the team and that you would learn something from each other. I told him that you were the real Minnesota Miracle Man.
Charlie Conway: [astonished] You did?
Gordon Bombay: [nods] I did. So be that man, Charlie. Be that man.

Coach Orion: You're playing hard. I'm proud of you guys.
Luis Mendoza: They're cheap-shotting us to death.
Coach Orion: I know they are. I know they are.
Lester Averman: It's going to take a miracle for us to hold on.
Dean Portman: [enters the lockeroom reading his scholarship] Dean Portman is awarded a full athletic and academic scholarship to the Eden Hall Academy. I had this lying around the house in Chicago, my attorney thought I should sign, I agreed. It's official boys. I'm back!
Charlie Conway: [aside to Orien] Bombay.

Gordon Bombay: [to the board] These scholarships, an offer, became a binding contract upon the signatures of the recipients and acceptance by the Ducks. They cannot be voided except for cause which I guarantee you, you have none. Should you decide to pursue their cancellation, I will slap you with an injunction. I will tie this matter up in court for years until long after these kids have gone on to college. And I will collect damages. I will win because I am very, very good. You know why I'm so good? Because I had a good education. You gave it to me and you're gonna give it to these kids.
Coach Orion: [to Charlie] He is good.
Charlie Conway: Just getting started.

Charlie Conway: [after Cole steals Charlie's lunch] Oh, come on, my mommy made me brownies.
Fulton: Yeah. Fresh warm ones.
Rick: It's too bad about your bash brother. Heard he was too scared to leave home.
Fulton: Portman ain't scared of nothing.
Cole: Phew! What the hell kind of brownies are these ?
Charlie Conway: I gotta tell her to stop using the horse turds in the recipe.

Coach Orion: Hey, Charlie, we're really backed into a corner here. We hold them for two minutes, we got ourselves a tie.
Charlie Conway: We're up to it, Coach.
Coach Orion: I know you are, but you deserve to win. Not careless, but not too careful either. If you see your shot, take it. Make sure it counts.
[puts a "C" on Charlie's jersey]
Coach Orion: Go get 'em, Captain.

Charlie Conway: The school looks stuffy, but we'll loosen it up. Huh, Coach?
Gordon Bombay: [sighs] I'm not gonna be your coach this year, Charlie.
Charlie Conway: Yeah. Very funny.
Gordon Bombay: I just got the official word. The Junior Goodwill Games Committee has named me Director of Player Personnel. I'm gonna be in charge of their junior hockey program worldwide.
Charlie Conway: Well, don't go.
Gordon Bombay: Charlie, I can't pass up this opportunity.
Charlie Conway: But you can pass us up, right? I mean, you dump us in some stupid school and now...
Gordon Bombay: I'm not dumping you anywhere. Eden Hall is a great chance for you. Charlie, I will always...
Charlie Conway: Coach, please... don't go.
Gordon Bombay: Charlie, I know it's hard. I... I understand what you're going thr...
Charlie Conway: No, no. No, you don't understand. You obviously don't even have a clue.
[walks away from Gordon]

Charlie Conway: How about it, Cowboy Roundup?
Connie Moreau: Hey Charlie, shouldn't we wait for the new coach to mess around?
Charlie Conway: This is how we practice. Duck hockey, Connie. He will have to get use to it sooner or later.

Linda: [to Charlie] Hi. Uh, will you sign a petition?
Charlie Conway: Uh... uh, yeah, sure. What's it for?
Linda: We're demanding the board change the demeaning Warrior name.
Charlie Conway: Well, "Warriors" isn't so bad, is it? I mean, you got the Indians, the Braves, the Redskins, the Blackhawks...
Linda: You're a jock, aren't you?
Charlie Conway: Yeah, I play hockey. In fact, I'm the captain of the new J.V. team.
Linda: Forget about it. All you Warrior jocks stick together.
[walks away]
Charlie Conway: But I'm not a Warrior, I'm a Duck.

Coach Orion: [as he introduces himself to the team] My name is Coach Orion. You can call me ""Coach'' or "Coach Orion.''
Charlie Conway: Well, you can call me "Charlie.''
[the rest of the Ducks laugh]
Coach Orion: That must be what that "C'' on your jersey stands for, huh? It sure doesn't stand for "captain."

Charlie Conway: [to Hans] School is a nightmare, especially our new hockey coach. Have you ever heard of Ted Orion?
Hans: Yes. Yes, h... he left the North Stars when he was still in his prime.
Charlie Conway: This guy is no Duck.
Hans: Perhaps you should show him the way, Charlie.
Charlie Conway: [chuckles] He doesn't exactly seem open to new learning experiences.
Hans: The question is, are you?

Coach Orion: [to Charlie] Where's the one place you never want to clear the puck?
Charlie Conway: It looked open.
Coach Orion: Just answer the question, Conway.
Charlie Conway: Listen, I'm not a defenseman, I'm a scorer!

Adam Banks: [after Adam crashes into Charlie and they crash into the net; the two of them start fighting] Yeah, nice takedown. You'd be in the box.
Charlie Conway: Go cry to your rich parents!

Coach Orion: [to Charlie] You got two choices, Conway: take off the jersey right now or you don't play.
Charlie Conway: You're breaking up the best thing any of us ever had.
Coach Orion: Well, it's time to grow up.
Charlie Conway: Grow up? Like you, huh? A washed-up pro who has to show off to a bunch of kids. Geez, that's real grown up.

[before the Ducks face off against the varsity team the morning after being stiffed on the dinner check]
Adam Banks: They didn't tell me until it was too late. Charlie, believe me.
Charlie Conway: Yeah right, preppy.
