George Peatty : This couple, sittin' just in front of me, oh, they weren't young, exactly. I guess the woman was about your age.

George Peatty : It would make a difference, wouldn't it. If I had money, I mean.

George Peatty : I mean big money. Hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Sherry Peatty : You really don't feel well, do you? Are you sure that pain's in your stomach?
George Peatty : I'm gonna have it, Sherry. Hundreds of thousands. Maybe a half a million.

Sherry Peatty : Maybe you got a hole in it, George. Do you suppose you have?
George Peatty : A hole in it? How would I get a hole in my stomach?
Sherry Peatty : How would you get one in your head? Fix me a drink, George. I think I'm developing some pains myself.
George Peatty : Sherry, can't I ever say anything at all without you jokin' me about it?
Sherry Peatty : Hurry up with that drink, George. The pains are gettin' worse.

Sherry Peatty : You want me to call you Papa, isn't that it George? And you want to call me Mama.
George Peatty : You know all the answers.
Sherry Peatty : Go right ahead. Of course, it may be the last word you ever say; but, I'll try to kill you as painless as possible.
