Roy
- Oscar Madison: I'm in for a quarter.
- Murray: Aren't you going to look at your cards first?
- Oscar Madison: What for? I'm gonna bluff anyway. Who gets a Pepsi?
- Murray: I get a Pepsi.
- Oscar Madison: My friend Murray the policeman gets a warm Pepsi.
- Roy: You still didn't fix the refrigerator. It's been two weeks now - no wonder it stinks in here.
- Oscar Madison: Temper, temper. If I wanted nagging, I'd go back with my wife. I'm out. Who wants food?
- Murray: What do you got?
- Oscar Madison: I got, uh, brown sandwiches and, uh, green sandwiches. Which one do you want?
- Murray: What's the green?
- Oscar Madison: It's either very new cheese or very old meat.
- Murray: I'll take the brown.
- [Oscar hands Murray a sandwich which Murray starts wolfing down]
- Roy: Are you crazy? You're not going to eat that, are you?
- Murray: I'm hungry!
- Roy: His refrigerator has been out of order for two weeks now. I saw milk standing in there that wasn't even in the bottle!
- Oscar Madison: What are you, some kind of health nut? Eat, Murray, eat!
- Murray: What are you, crazy, letting him go to the john alone?
- Roy: Suppose he tries to kill himself!
- Oscar Madison: How's he gonna kill himself in the john?
- Murray: Whaddaya mean, how? Razor blades, poison, anything that's in there.
- Oscar Madison: Nah, that's the kids' bathroom. The worst he could do in there is brush his teeth to death.
- Roy: He could jump!
- Vinnie: That's right! Isn't there a window in there?
- Oscar Madison: Yeah, but it's only six inches wide.
- Murray: Yeah, well he could break the glass - he could cut his wrists!
- Oscar Madison: He could also flush himself into the East River. I'm telling you he's not going to try anything.
- Roy: Sh! Sh! Listen, listen!
- [they all follow Roy to the bathroom door; Felix is heard crying]
- Roy: He's crying. You hear that, he's crying!
- Murray: Isn't that terrible? For God's sakes, Oscar, do something, say something!
- Oscar Madison: What? What do you say to a man who's crying in your bathroom?
- Oscar Madison: I'm $800 behind in alimony. Let's raise the stakes.
- Roy: They can do it, you know.
- Oscar Madison: Do what?
- Roy: Throw you in jail.
- Oscar Madison: Never. If she can't call me up once a week to aggravate me, she's not happy.
- Murray the Cop: Aren't you worried about the kids?
- Oscar Madison: Murray, the kids are living in their grandfather's house with a swimming pool in California. Can we just play cards?
- Roy: I told you you'd get into trouble. It's because you don't know how manage anything. I should know - I'm your accountant.
- Oscar Madison: If you're my accountant, how come I need money?
- Roy: If you need money, how come you play poker?
- Oscar Madison: 'Cause I need money.
- Roy: But you always lose.
- Oscar Madison: That's why I need the money.
- Roy: Then don't play poker.
- Oscar Madison: Then don't come to my house and eat my potato chips.
- [grabs the bag of potato chips on the poker table and flings the entire contents all over the living room]
- Oscar Madison: You see, wise guy? Potato chips!
- Murray the Cop: Oh, beautiful, beautiful.
- [an argument ensues with everyone bickering all at once]
- Murray the Cop: What are you yelling about? We're playing a friendly game!
- [the bickering continues]
- Murray the Cop: All right, all right, ALL RIGHT! Calm down, calm down, take it easy. I'm a cop, you know - I can arrest the whole lousy game.
- [they all quiet down]
- Oscar Madison: My friend Murray the cop is right. Let's just play cards and please hold them up. I can't see where I marked them.
- Roy: He owes money to his wife, his government and his friends and he still won't take it seriously.
- Oscar Madison: Life goes on even for those of us who are divorced, broke and sloppy.
- Oscar Madison: Hey wait a minute, wait a minute, the pot's shy. Who didn't put in a quarter?
- Murray: You didn't.
- Oscar Madison: You got a big mouth, Murray. Just for that, lend me twenty dollars.
- Murray: I just loaned you twenty dollars. Borrow from somebody else, I keep winning my own money back.
- Roy: You owe everybody in the game. If you don't have it, you shouldn't play.
- Oscar Madison: All right, I'm through being a nice guy, you owe me six dollars apiece for the buffet!
- Vinnie: What Buffet?
- [they all chime in]
- Vinnie: What buffet?
- Speed: What buffet? Hot beer and two sandwiches left over from when you went to high school.
- Oscar Madison: What do you want at a poker game, a tomato surprise? Murray, lend me twenty dollars or I'll call your wife and tell her you're in Central Park wearing a dress.
- Roy: [sniffs] What's the smell? Disinfectant?
- [smells his cards]
- Roy: It's the cards. He washed the cards.
- [gets up from the table]
- Roy: I'm getting out of here. I can't stand any more.
- Oscar Madison: Wait a minute, Roy. Where are you going?
- Roy: I've been sitting here, breathing cleaning fluid and ammonia for three hours! Nature didn't intend for poker to be played like that.
- [leaves]
- [last lines]
- Oscar Madison: Felix, what about next Friday night? You're not gonna break up the poker game, are you?
- Felix Ungar: Me, never! Marriage may come and go, but the game must go on. So long, Frances.
- [leaves]
- Oscar Madison: So long, Blanche.
- [sits down at the poker table]
- Oscar Madison: Well, what are we gonna do, are we just gonna sit around or are we gonna play poker?
- Roy: [they all chime in] Let's play some poker!
- Oscar Madison: Hey boys, boys, boys, let's watch the cigarette butts, shall we? This is my house, not a pigsty.
- Murray: I'm telling you, I'm worried. I know Felix. He's going to try something crazy.
- Vinnie: You mean you just threw him out?
- Oscar Madison: That's right, I threw him out. It was my decision. All right, I admit it. Let it be on my head.
- Vinnie: Let what be on your head?
- Oscar Madison: How should I know? Felix put it there. Ask him.
- Speed: He's out there somewhere.
- Oscar Madison: Listen, he was driving us all crazy with his napkins and his ashtrays and his bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches. All of you said so.
- Roy: We didn't say kick him out, Oscar.
- Oscar Madison: Well, who do you think I did it for? I did it for us!
- Roy: Us?
- Oscar Madison: Yes, that's right. Do you know what he was planning for next Friday night's poker game as a change of pace? Do you have any idea?
- Vinnie: What?
- Oscar Madison: A luau! A Hawaiian luau! Roast pork, fried rice, spareribs - they don't play poker like that in Honolulu!
- Felix Ungar: [serving refreshments at the poker game] Cold glass of beer for Roy...
- Roy: Thank you.
- Felix Ungar: Where's your coaster?
- Roy: My what?
- Felix Ungar: Your coaster. The little round thing that goes under the glass.
- Roy: I think I bet it.
- Oscar Madison: [tosses the coaster back to Roy] Here, here, here. I knew I was winning too much! Here.
- Felix Ungar: Always try to use your coasters, huh, fellas? A scotch and a little bit of water...
- Speed: Scotch and a little bit of water and I have my coaster.
- Felix Ungar: I don't want to be a pest, but you know what glasses can do.
- Oscar Madison: [under his breath] They leave little rings on the table.
- Felix Ungar: They leave little rings on the table!
- Oscar Madison: [under his breath] And we don't want little rings on the table.
- Roy: What if he's laying in a gutter somewhere ? Who would know who he is?
- Oscar Madison: He's got 92 credit cards in his wallet. The minute something happens to him, America lights up.
