Eddie and the Cruisers II: Eddie Lives!

Hilton Overstreet: [faces Eddie, sternly] First you destroy your guitar, now your songs. You're gonna be next?

Eddie Wilson: They're lousy songs. They don't even burn good.

Hilton Overstreet: Good thing you know them by heart. Be a shame to lose that many songs by Eddie Wilson.

[Eddie stops destroying his songs and realizes that Hilton knows his true identity]

Hilton Overstreet: I knew the minute I heard you play. The way a man plays - he's born with it; like fingerprints. He can hide under another name. But he can't disguise the way he plays.

Eddie Wilson: Then it's a good thing I'm quitting.

Hilton Overstreet: You're not quitting now, Eddie! You owe it to this band! You brought them this far! Then deserve another chance, just like you had a chance. But they ain't gonna get it without you. You owe it to them, Eddie... and you owe it to me.
