Quotes7

  • Moss: You're going Close Encounters-crazy, Roy!
  • Moss: These toys may smell of wee come the morn.
  • Moss: A *fire*?
  • Roy Trenneman: That's right. At the sea lion show, apparently.
  • Jen Barber: Aren't those shows usually out in the open?
  • Roy Trenneman: Well, yeah, I mean that's what I would've... Yeah.
  • Jen Barber: Lots of water everywhere.
  • Roy Trenneman: Yeah, I mean, I would imagine a whale need a lot of water. I don't think you can have whale in a place where there isn't a huge amount of water.
  • Jen Barber: It just seem like a weird place to go on fire.
  • Roy Trenneman: It's a *very* weird place to go on fire.
  • Moss: It's a Sea Parks, isn't it? You're building a Sea Parks out of mashed potatoes.
  • Roy Trenneman: There are twelve exits, Moss. Twelve exits! For only 200 people.
  • Moss: You're going Close Encounters-crazy, Roy! You need to let it go.
  • Roy Trenneman: To have killed anyone the fire has to start, here, here, and here. And close in like this. But, how is it spreaded? There is no wood in a Sea Parks arena. And why there is no wood? Because it rots. And why does it rots? Because of all the water...
  • Jen Barber: It's not that much of a lie, Moss. Because I have always wanted to speaks Italian... and I can sound like I'm speaking Italian, so it's... more or less the same thing.
  • Moss: Yeah, except to Italian. Or people who can understand Italian.
  • Roy Trenneman: Her parent died in a fire.
  • Jen Barber: Oh, God. I'm sorry, that's horrible.
  • Roy Trenneman: Yeah, yeah, it was a fire... At Sea Parks.
  • Moss: [after a pause] Sea Parks?
  • Roy Trenneman: Yeah.
  • Jen Barber: With the...
  • Roy Trenneman: With the whales and everything, yeah...
  • Jen Barber: How is Julia, The Orphan?
  • Roy Trenneman: Don't call her that.
  • Moss: Why?
  • Jen Barber: It was the first thing you told us about her.
  • Moss: I totally think of her as Julia The Orphan.
  • Roy Trenneman: Well get out of the habit of it. What if it slips out when you meet her in person?
  • Jen Barber: I'm hardly likely to say "Hello, Julia The Orphan." To her am I?
  • Moss: I totally would say that to her.
  • Roy Trenneman: Yeah, I know you would.
  • Moss: But she's still an orphan, right?
  • Roy Trenneman: Yes. Her parents haven't come back to life.
