Doug 'Stretch' Fortune: I don't know where you was raised, mister, but where I come from, we don't start fights in other folks' homes.


Naomi Yates: The only thing I ever put in my orange juice is gin.
Coach Fred Campbell: Gin?
Naomi Yates: Oh, uh, doctor's orders.
Coach Fred Campbell: You have some kind of a condition?
Naomi Yates: No, no. Me and my doctor just like to get drunk together.


[Eric dials his home phone number from a payphone rest stop]
Henry Blanchard: [into the phone] Hello?
Eric Dean: [into the phone] Oh, hello Mr. Blanchard. Is my father in?
Henry Blanchard: He's not here. Your father and the "new" Mrs. Dean, number six, left from Reno two days ago on their sunny honeymoon to Acapulco, Mexico.
Eric Dean: [groans] He went and did it again, huh? He didn't say if he was planning to stop in Palm Springs for a couple of days?
Henry Blanchard: No, he didn't mention it.
Eric Dean: He does know that I'm staying here and where to locate me?
Henry Blanchard: Yes, yes, I told him twice as you requested.
Eric Dean: Well, if he calls give him a message. Just tell him that, "Eric sends his regards".
Henry Blanchard: Sure, I'll give him the message.
Eric Dean: No, wait. Better make it "your son".
Henry Blanchard: Your son?
Eric Dean: Yes. If he calls, say: "your son sends his regards". "Eric" may not ring a bell.
