Back to the Future 1985 quotes, page 2

Marty

Lorraine!

Lorraine

Marty, that was very interesting music.

Marty

Yeah.

Lorraine

I hope you don't mind, but George asked if he could take me home.

Marty

Well, that's great! (Touches Lorraine's chin with his finger) I had a feeling about you two.

Lorraine

I have a feeling too...

Marty

Listen, I got to go, but I just want to tell you that it's been...educational.

George

Marty, I want to thank you for all your good advice. I'll never forget it.

Lorraine

Marty, will we ever see you again?

Marty

I guarantee it. Well, good luck you guys. (Walks away, and turns back) Oh, and one other thing, if you guys ever have kids (Lorraine is agape with surprise), and one of them, when he's eight years old accidentally sets fire to the living room rug? Go easy on him.

Lorraine

Marty... such a nice name.

Biff

Hey, McFly! [both George and Marty turn around] What do you think your doing?

Marty

Biff.

Biff

Hey, I'm talking to you McFly, you Irish bug!

George

Oh, hey, Biff. Hey, guys. How are you doin'?

Biff

Do you got my homework finished, McFly?

George

Well, I figured since it wasn't due till Monday -

Biff

Hello? Hello? Anybody home, huh, Think, McFly! Think! I gotta have time to recopy it. Do you realize what what would happen if I handed in my homework in your handwriting? I'll get kicked out of school. You wouldn't want that to happen would ya? WOULD YA?!

George

Of course not, Biff. Now I wouldn't want that to happen.

Biff

Well, what are you looking at, butthead!

Hey, kid! What did you do, jump ship?

Marty

Wha?

Well what's with the life preserver?

1.21 GIGAWATTS!?! 1.21 gigawatts! Great Scott!!!

Marty

Wait... what the hell is a gigawatt?!
Note: Doc Brown pronounces the term "jigga-watt".

Ha! What did I tell you?! 88 miles per hour! The temporal displacement occurred exactly 1:20 AM and zero seconds!

Marty McFly

Jesus Christ, Doc! You disintegrated Einstein!

Calm down Marty. I didn't disintegrate anything. The molecular structure of both Einstein and the car are completely intact!

Marty

Then where the hell are they?

The appropriate question is when the hell are they! You see, Einstein has just become the world's first time traveler! I sent him into the future! One minute into the future to be exact! And at precisely, 1:21 A.M. and zero seconds, we shall catch up with him and the time machine!

Marty

Wait a minute, wait a minute Doc, uh, are you telling me you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?!

The way I see it, if you're going to build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style? Besides, the stainless steel construction made the flux dispersal...(watch beeps) Look out! (time machine comes back)

Obviously your mother is amorously infatuated with you instead of your father.
Marty : Wait a minute, Doc. Are you trying to tell me my mom... has got the hots for me?

Precisely!

Marty

Whoa, this is heavy.

Pretty mediocre photographic fakery. They cut off your brother's hair.

Marty

I'm tellin' the truth, Doc. You gotta believe me.

Then tell me, Future Boy, who's President of the United States in 1985?

Marty

Ronald Reagan.

Ronald Reagan? The actor? [scoffs] Then who's vice-president? Jerry Lewis? I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady!

Marty

Whoa, wait, Doc!

And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury!

Marty

Doc, you gotta listen to me!

I've had enough practical jokes for one evening! Good night, future boy! [slams door]

Marty

No, wait, Doc! The-the-the-the bruise! The bruise on your head! I know how that happened! You told me the whole story! You were standing on your toilet, and you were hanging a clock, and you fell, and you hit your head on the sink, and that's when you came up with the idea for the flux capacitor, which is what, makes time travel possible.

George

Hey you, get your damn hands off...(sees Biff with Lorraine; Biff looks back at George) Oh.

Biff

I think you picked the wrong car, McFly.

Lorraine

George! Help me! Please!

Biff

Just close the door, McFly and walk away. (George looks on.) Are you deaf, McFly? Close the door, and beat it!

George

No Biff, you leave her alone!

Biff

All right, McFly (emerges from car). You asked for it...and now you're gonna get it! (George attempts to punch, but Biff blocks and twists his arm. George squirms in pain)

Lorraine

Biff, Biff, no! You'll break his arm. (Gets out of car and jumps Biff on his back) Biff, LEAVE HIM ALONE!
(Biff shoves Lorraine into the ground and laughs as he looks away from George, who is let go. An angry George balls his left hand into a fist. Biff looks back at George in time to see the fist connect with his face and gets knocked out.)

George

Are you okay?

Who is that guy?

That's George McFly.

That's George McFly?

George

Hey you get your damn hands off her! Do you really think I oughta swear?

Marty

Yes, definitely. Goddammit George, swear!

George

I don't know what I should say.

Marty

Well say anything, George. Say the first thing that comes to your mind.

George

Nothing's coming to my mind.

Marty

Jesus, George. It's a wonder I was ever born.

George

Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet Vulcan and told me that if I didn't ask Lorraine out that he'd melt my brain.

Marty

Okay George, let's just keep this brain melting stuff to ourselves, okay?

George

Oh yeah, right.

Jennifer (after Marty discovers his new truck): How about a ride, Mister.

Marty

Jennifer! Oh man, are you a sight for sore eyes. Let me look at you.

Jennifer

Marty, your acting like you haven't seen me in a week.

Marty

I haven't.

Jennifer

Is everything okay? Is everything going all right?

Marty

Oh, yeah. Everything's great (as they are about to kiss, Doc Brown's time machine appears)

Marty! You've got to come back with me!

Marty

Where?

Back to the future.

Marty

Whoa, wait a minute, what are you doing, Doc?

I need fuel. Go ahead, quick. Get in the car!

Marty

No, no, no, no, no, no, Doc. I just got here, alright, Jennifer's here, we're gonna take the new truck for a spin.

Well, bring her along. This concerns her too.

Marty

Whoa, wait a minute, Doc. What are you talking about? What happens to us in the future? What, do we become assholes or something?

No, no, no, no, no, Marty. Both you and Jennifer turn out fine. It's your kids, Marty. Something's gotta be done about your kids!

Jennifer

Okay, come on, I think we're safe.

Marty

You know, this time it wasn't my fault. The Doc said all his clocks were twenty-five minutes slow -

Mr. Strickland

"Doc"!? Am I to understand you're still hanging around with Dr. Emmett Brown, McFly? [clicks with his mouth, gives Jennifer a tardy slip] Tardy slip for you, Miss Parker. [gives Marty one, too] And one for you, McFly. I believe that makes four in a row. Now let me give you a nickel's worth of free advice, young man. This so-called Dr. Brown is dangerous, he's a real nut case. You hang around with him, you're gonna end up in big trouble.

Marty

Oh, yes, sir.

Mr. Strickland

You got a real attitude problem, McFly. You're a slacker! You remind me of you father when he went here. He was a slacker too.

Marty

Can I go now, Mr. Strickland?

Mr. Strickland

I noticed your band is on the roster for the dance auditions after school today. Why even bother, McFly? You don't have a chance, you're too much like your old man. No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley!

Marty

Yeah, well, history is gonna change.

Linda

Hey, Marty. I'm not your answering service. While you were outside pouting about the car; Jennifer Parker called you twice.

Lorraine

I don't like her, Marty. Any girl who just calls up a boy is just asking for trouble.

Linda

Oh, Mom, there's nothing wrong with calling a boy.

Lorraine

I think it's terrible! Girls chasing boys. When I was your age I never chased a boy or called a boy or sat in a parked car with a boy.

Linda

Then how am I supposed to ever meet anybody?

Lorraine

Well, it will just happen, like the way I met your father.

Linda

That was so stupid! Grandpa hit him with the car.

Lorraine

It was meant to be. Anyway, if grandpa hadn't hit him, then none of you would have been born.

Linda

Yeah, well, I still don't see what Dad was doing in the middle of the street.

Lorraine

What was it, George? Birdwatching?

George

What Lorraine? What?

Lorraine

Anyway, your grandfather hit him with the car and brought him into the house. He seemed so helpless, like a little lost puppy, and my heart just went out to him -

Linda

Yeah, Mom, we know! You told us the story a million times. You felt sorry for him so you decided to go with him to the Fish Under the Sea Dance.

Lorraine

No, No. It was the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance. Our first date. I'll never forget it. It was the night of that terrible thunderstorm, remember, George? Your father kissed me for the very first time on that dance floor and it was then that I realized that I was going to spend the rest of my life with him.

Lorraine

Do you have a television set?

Marty

Well, yeah, you know we have two of them.

Milton Baines

Wow! You must be rich.

Stella Baines

Oh, honey, he's teasing you. Nobody has two television sets.

Marty

Hey! Hey, I've seen this one! This is a classic. This is where Ralph dresses up as a man from space.

Milton Baines

What do you mean you've seen this? It's brand new.

Marty

Yeah, but I saw it on a... re-run.

Milton Baines

What's a re-run?

Marty McFly

You'll find out.
