God Is a Comedian (2007)

Jonathan Tucker: Tommy Donnelly

Quotes 

• Jimmy Donnelly : Plead guilty?

  Tommy Donnelly : Frankie's tight with the DA. You're not gonna do a day in jail.

  Jimmy Donnelly : It's really nice of you and Frankie to take care of me like this. Do I say thank you before I plead guilty or after?

• Tommy Donnelly : The only way we get out of this is if nobody talks. Understand me. More people who know, the more chance it has of getting out.

  Jimmy Donnelly : I'm not people. I'm your brother.

• Kevin Donnelly : [on the phone]  Slow down, Ma. You're talking fast, I can't hear you.

  Tommy Donnelly : Kevin, what's wrong with her?

  Kevin Donnelly : I don't know, Tommy.

  Tommy Donnelly : Is there a problem with Sean?

  Kevin Donnelly : I don't know, Tommy. I can't hear Ma because you're talking while she's talking!

• Tommy Donnelly : Can we meet up later, maybe talk a little bit?

  Jenny Reilly : I don't think so. I gotta get back to work.

  Tommy Donnelly : Come on, Jenny.

  Jenny Reilly : It's hard enough for me to say it the first time. I don't wanna have to do it again.

• [to Kevin, speaking of the unplugged freezer with the spoiled food in it] 

  Tommy Donnelly : What the hell is this? Huh? It's unplugged.

  Kevin Donnelly : I think Jimmy's using the outlet for his drill. He's building a birdhouse.

  Tommy Donnelly : A birdhouse? Beautiful.

  [coming down the stairs to the basement] 

  Jimmy Donnelly : Where are all my damn guns?

  Tommy Donnelly : Why do you need a gun, Jimmy? Did you catch a bird in your birdhouse?

  Jimmy Donnelly : At least I can build something. All you can do is screw everything up!

• [leaving the jail with Tommy after visiting Jimmy] 

  Kevin Donnelly : Didn't you see what he looked like in there?

  Tommy Donnelly : He's a junkie! We bail him out and five minutes later he's gonna be shooting up again!

  Kevin Donnelly : You think he won't score dope in there?

  Tommy Donnelly : Not if he doesn't have any money! You give him any money? Did you give any money?

  Kevin Donnelly : It's real easy for you to stand out here and judge him.

  Tommy Donnelly : You want him to die, Kevin? Hmm? We leave him where he is. Don't borry any money, don't go to a bail bondsman. Nothing. Nothing!

  Kevin Donnelly : [looks defeated]
