  • Paulie: [talking about Adrian] You like her?
  • Rocky: Sure, I like her.
  • Paulie: What's the attraction?
  • Rocky: I dunno... she fills gaps.
  • Paulie: What's 'gaps'?
  • Rocky: I dunno, she's got gaps, I got gaps, together we fill gaps.
  • Paulie: Are you ballin' her?
  • Rocky: Hey.
  • [punches Paulie in the shoulder]
  • Rocky: Hey, you don't talk dirty about your sister.
  • Paulie: Are you screwing my sister?
  • Rocky: You see, that's why I can't connect you with Gazzo. You know that, Paulie. Because you got a big mouth. You know, you just talk too much.
  • [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.

  • [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*!
  • Paulie: I want you outta here instamatically.
  • Paulie: [about Adrian] She's pushing thirty freaking years old, and if she don't wise up, she's gonna die an old maid.
