- Elliot DiMauro: Ooh, nudie cards. Boy, the women here are enormous.
- Jack Gallo: Back then that was considered a good thing. Now we know better.
- Dennis Finch: [taking the cards] Oo-la-la! Looks like D. Finch is playing a little Solitaire tonight.
- Jack Gallo: Dennis, did you remember to pack my scuba mask? I want to be able to see my bare feet underwater. It makes them look gigantic.
- Dennis Finch: Be sure to wear these underwater socks.
- Jack Gallo: But...
- Dennis Finch: Hey! There's coral, there's jellyfish, there's sharp things that are... pointy.
- Jack Gallo: That's not writing, not like that, on a computer. This is the way to write, on the old typewriter. Idea to finger, finger to key, key to word.
- Dennis Finch: Pretty much the same deal over here.
- Jack Gallo: I want you to write me a novel.
- Bob Fennel: That's not what I came here for.
- Jack Gallo: Change of plans, you're writing a novel.
- Bob Fennel: But that's not what I do.
- Jack Gallo: I'll tell you what. I'll show you a sample of my writing.
- Bob Fennel: Now that's more like it. I can get a hold on your style, suggest improvements, really access the story structure.
- Jack Gallo: [gives Bob a signed check] How's that?
- Bob Fennel: That's some writing.
- Jack Gallo: I see myself as a Hemmingway type. And be sure it has a panther. A Jack Gallo novel would have a panther
- Bob Fennel: You got it.
- Jack Gallo: And try to add a little romance. They'll come for the panthers, they'll stay for the love.
