4 quotes Carol Carol I just love listening to Wolfman. My Mom won't let me at home because he's a Negro. I think he's terrific. Do you know that he just broadcasts from a plane that flies around in circles all the time? Do you believe that's true?
Carol Oh no, not me. Not old Carol. The night's young and I'm not hittin' the rack till I get a little action.
Carol [After John orders her to stay on her side]
Don't worry, I won't rape you.

This better be a joke, 'cause I'm not drivin' you around.
Carol What's the matter? Am I too ugly? Judy doesn't want me with her and now you don't want me with you. Nobody wants me - even my mother and father hate me. Everybody hates me.
Carol Hey, is this what they call "copping a feel"?
What? No. N-O. Sheezus.
Carol What's your name, anyway?
My name? Mud, if anyone sees you.
Carol Oh, rats. I was hoping I might see some friends here.
Probably a couple of weeks past their bedtime.
Carol Oh, wait, there's Dee Dee. I hope she sees me.
Oh, shit. Dee Dee!
Carol You're a regular J.D.
File that under uh, C.S. over there.
Carol [hands her the ticket just issued him]
C.S.? What's that stand for?
Chicken shit - that's what it is.
Carol Oh.
[puts the ticket in the glove compartment which is full of similar tickets]
Over there, that's Freddy Benson's Vette...he had a head-on collision with a drunk. Boom! Didn't have a chance. A good driver too. Oh, it's pretty grim when a guy gets it and it's not even his own fault... See that over there, that '41? That used to be, believe it or not, the fastest car in the valley. I never got a chance to race Earl though. He got his in 1955 in about the hairiest crash we ever had here. Jesus, you should have seen it. Eight kids killed and both drivers. Board of Education was real impressed see, so they come up, filmed the whole thing. Now they show it in Drivers' Education class. You'll probably see it if you get lucky. Course, it's really tough when they take somebody with them.
Carol You never had an accident though - you told me.
Hey, well I come mighty close. Almost rolled it a couple of times. But, I'm been just quick enough to stay out of this graveyard.
Carol I bet you're the fastest.
I've never been beaten - a lot of guys have tried. It seems to me there's more guys lately than there's ever been.
Hey man, I'm sorry if I scared ya!
You're gonna hafta do one hell of a lot more than that to scare me!
Hey I've been lookin' all over for ya man. Didn't nobody tell ya I was lookin' for ya?...Hey, you're supposed to be the fastest thing in the Valley, man, but that can't be your car. It must be your mama's car. I'm sorta embarrassed to be this close to ya.
I'm not surprised, drivin' a Field Car.
Field Car? What's a Field Car?
A Field Car runs through the fields, drops cow shit all over the place to make the lettuce grow.
[laughing]
That's pretty good. Hey, I like the color of your car there, man. What's that supposed to be? Sorta a cross between Piss Yellow and Puke Green, ain't it?
Well, you call that a paint job but it's pretty ugly. I'll betcha you gotta sneak up on the pumps just to get a little air in your tires.
Well, at least I don't have to pull over to the side just to let a funeral go by, man.
Oh, funny... You know what?
Carol Your car's uglier than I am! [She turns back to John] That didn't come out right.
Carol Wow! He's really fast, isn't he?
Yeah, but he's stupid.
