Adrian
- Rocky: I can't do it.
- Adrian: What?
- Rocky: I can't beat him.
- Adrian: Apollo?
- Rocky: Yeah. I been out there walkin' around, thinkin'. I mean, who am I kiddin'? I ain't even in the guy's league.
- Adrian: What are we gonna do?
- Rocky: I don't know.
- Adrian: You worked so hard.
- Rocky: Yeah, that don't matter. 'Cause I was nobody before.
- Adrian: Don't say that.
- Rocky: Ah come on, Adrian, it's true. I was nobody. But that don't matter either, you know? 'Cause I was thinkin', it really don't matter if I lose this fight. It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either. 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.
- [Last lines; Adrian snuck inside the ring]
- Rocky: Adrian! Adrian!
- Adrian: Rocky!
- Rocky: Adrian!
- Adrian: Rocky!
- Rocky: Hey, where's your hat?
- Adrian: I love you!
- Rocky: I love you.
- Adrian: [grabs and hugs Rocky] I love you!
- Rocky: [out of breath] I love you. I love you.
- Adrian: I love you!
- Rocky: I love you. I love you.
- Adrian: I love you!
- [Paulie overhears Rocky and now he's angry and hurt]
- Paulie: I don't want nothin' from you. I don't want nothin' from you. This ain't no charity case. Get outta my house.
- Adrian: It's not just your house.
- Paulie: [to Rocky] You ain't no friend no more. Get outta my house, I just says.
- Adrian: Don't talk to him like that.
- Paulie: Both of you get out of my house.
- Rocky: Yo... It's cold outside, Paulie.
- [drops his hat; getting angrier, Paulie grabs his bat]
- Paulie: I don't want you messin' her, and I don't raise you to go with this scum bum! Yeah? Come on! You wanna hit on me? Come on! I'll break both your arms so they don't work for ya!
- [Paulie smashed a lamp, then a dinner tray; Adrian screams]
- Paulie: [screaming] That's right! I'm not good enough to meet with Gazzo...
- [Paulie spits]
- Paulie: ...that's what I think of Gazzo! Now you're a big-shot fighter on your way up, you don't even throw a crumb to your friend Paulie! When I go out and get your meat every morning! You forgot that! Then I even give you my sister, too!
- Adrian: Only a pig would say that!
- Paulie: I'm a pig? A pig gives you the best?
- Paulie: [smashing a coffee set] You're such a loser! I don't get married because of you! You can't live by yourself! I put you two together! And you - don't you forget it! You owe me! You owe me!
- Adrian: [freaking out] *What do I owe you*?
- Paulie: [crying] You're supposed to be good to me.
- Adrian: *What do I owe you, Paulie? What do I owe you*? I treat you good! I cook for you! I cleaned for you! I pick up your dirty clothes! I take care of ya, Paulie! I don't owe you nothin'! And you made me feel like a loser! *I'm not a loser*!
- [the 15th and final round of the fight has ended; reporters climb into the ring for interviews]
- Fight Announcer: [interviewing Rocky] It was chaos. Rocky, you went the distance. You went the fifteen rounds. How do you feel?
- Rocky: All right!
- Fight Announcer: What were you thinking about when that buzzer sounded?
- Rocky: [yelling] Adrian!
- Fight Announcer: What were you thinking when the fifteenth...
- Rocky: What? Adrian!
- Adrian: [out in the crowd] Rocky? Rocky?
- Jergens: [taking the microphone] Ladies and Gentlemen, your attention, please.
- Adrian: Rocky? Rocky!
- Jergens: Tonight, we have had the privilege of witnessing the greatest exhibition of guts and stamina in the history of the ring!
- Rocky: Adrian!
- Adrian: Rocky. Rocky!
- Jergens: [reading the results] Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a split decision.
- [Jergens continues; indistinct]
- Rocky: *Adrian*!
- Adrian: Rocky!
- Jergens: ...for Creed!
- [the crowd cheers]
- Rocky: [Rocky is trying to make out with Adrian on their first date] Will you do me a favor? Take off these glasses.
- [Rocky takes off Adrian's frumpy glasses, revealing her beautiful eyes]
- Rocky: Now take off this hat.
- [Takes off her unattractive hat, revealing her dark, lovely hair. Adrian is beautiful and Rocky is appreciative]
- Rocky: I always knew you was pretty...
- Adrian: [Adrian looks at him, disbelieving] Stop teasing me.
- [Rocky and Adrian watching a Christmas movie in the house]
- Adrian: And he called the reporters?
- Rocky: Yeah. It threw my whole training schedule off.
- Adrian: Don't be mad at him. He's just trying to help.
- Rocky: Adrian, I ain't mad. It's just that, uh, when a reporter's around, I get out of joint 'cause they take cheap shots, and Paulie knows that. Paulie keeps askin' me for a job all the time, but he don't know nothin' about fighting.
- Adrian: Are you gonna say anything to him?
- Rocky: Well, what's to say? I just don't know what he wants from me.
- Rocky: My father, he's a... My old man, he was never too smart. He says to me, "You weren't born with much of a brain, "so you better start using your body." So I become a fighter. You know what I mean? Why you laughing?
- Adrian: My mother, she said the opposite thing.
- Rocky: What did she say the opposite?
- Adrian: She said, "You weren't born with much of a body, "so you better develop your brain."
