Quotes

Martin Fitzgerald : You coming?
Samantha Spade : Hold your horses.

Martin Fitzgerald : So, the Carrol boys transfer the other kids into a U-Haul or a van or something like that. They leave the bus in the ravine, and now they're on the road again.
Samantha Spade : Yeah, but they can't go too far if they got to be here to pick up the ransom tomorrow morning.
Martin Fitzgerald : Well, unless one of them's driving the van out of the area, and then the other one's gonna go to the park for the meet.
Samantha Spade : Okay, Doug is 16. Richard's 15. How the hell do they get their hands on a U-Haul or a van?
Martin Fitzgerald : Well, they could be working with somebody older.
Samantha Spade : Bus driver.
Martin Fitzgerald : Nah, but Johnny said that the bus driver was one of the hostages.
Samantha Spade : Yeah, I know what Johnny said. What I'm saying is maybe he pretends to be a hostage, give himself plausible deniability later. Boys take off with the money, he hooks up with them in... Mexico, takes his cut.

Martin Fitzgerald : They don't all turn out to be psychopathic kidnappers, you know.
Samantha Spade : Let me guess. 2.2, white picket fence, golden retriever.
Martin Fitzgerald : [amused laugh] Yeah, maybe. Something like that.
Samantha Spade : Not for me. Not in this world.

Martin Fitzgerald : Hey, what are you doing here?
