Quotes 

• Tom Cody : [Ben Gunn has just told them where Ellen Aim is being hidden]  Pay him.

  Ben Gunn : Yeah. Pay me.

  Billy Fish : I'm not gonna pay this jerk!

  Tom Cody : Listen, shithead. You give him some of your money, or I'll give him some of your money.

• Billy Fish : The famous Sorels sure put a lotta money into that bus, huh? Listen, Cody, I didn't know you had a thing with Ellen in the old days. But you gotta get some smarts. Learn to adjust to the fact that you're outta the picture now. You see Cody, I do things for her. Things that a guy like you could never do. Things that matter in the real world.

  [pause] 

  Tom Cody : You know somethin'? The only trouble with kickin' the shit outta you is it would be too easy.

• Billy Fish : [to the strains of "I Can Dream About You"]  Take it easy, Cody. Thanks.

  Tom Cody : I'll *take* it wherever I can get it.

• Billy Fish : This is great, just great.

  McCoy : You wanna help change this tire, shorty?

  Billy Fish : Changin' flat tires isn't exactly my line of work, dear.

  McCoy : If that's the case then why don't you just shut up.

• Billy Fish : Look Cody, you sound pretty dumb but nobody's that dumb.

• Tom Cody : OK, Fish, you head back to the car. I want you in that doorway over there in fifteen minutes. And I mean fifteen minutes.

  Billy Fish : Are you crazy? They'll notice me in a second down there!

  Tom Cody : Don't worry about that, I'm gonna give 'em a couple of other things to worry about.

  Billy Fish : Well what about her? I thought she's supposed to do the drivin'!

  Tom Cody : Get movin', and you better be ready when we get there.

  [pause] 

  McCoy : Do you trust him, or you just desperate?

  Tom Cody : You take the front entrance. I'm goin' topside. If you can work your way upstairs to help me out, fine. If not, I'll handle it.

  McCoy : Just what I always wanted to do, Cody. Take on the Bombers.

• Billy Fish : Keep your hands off the suit, buddy!

• Tom Cody : [Reva embraces him]  Aw, Reva. Cut it out! We made it. Everybody's in one piece.

  Ed Price : What about that, Ellen. You OK?

  Ellen Aim : [pause]  Yeah, I'm all right I guess.

  Billy Fish : No she's not, she's tired and she's been roughed up. I'm gonna take her back to the hotel so she can get some rest. This whole thing started 'cause I had to do a gig in this shithole. I shoulda stayed the hell away from this dump.
