Back to the Future 1985 quotes, page 3

Lorraine

Marty, why are you so nervous?

Marty

Lorraine, have you ever, uh, been in a situation where you knew you had to act a certain way, but when you got there, you didn't know if you could go through with it?

Lorraine

You mean, like how you're supposed to act on a first date?

Marty

Well, sort of.

Lorraine

Oh, I, I think I know exactly what you mean.

Marty

Y-y-you do?

Lorraine

You know what I do in those situations?

Marty

What?

Lorraine

I don't worry. [kisses him hard, then stops and pulls back to see Marty is shocked] This is all wrong. I don't know what it is, but when I kiss you, it's like I'm kissing... my brother. I guess that doesn't make any sense, does it?

Marty

Believe me, it makes perfect sense.

Lou

Are you gonna order somethin’, kid?

Marty

Yeah, gimme a Tab.

Lou

Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order somethin'.

Marty

Right, gimme a Pepsi Free.

Lou

You wanna a Pepsi, pal, you're gonna pay for it.

Marty

Well just gimme somethin’ without any sugar in it, okay?

Lou

Without any sugar.

Hey George, heard you laid out Biff, nice going!

George, have you ever thought of running for class president?

Marty

You know, Doc, you left your equipment on all week.

My equipment? That reminds me Marty, you'd better not hook up to the amplifier. There's a slight possibility of overload.

Marty

Yeah... I'll keep that in mind.

Marty

Mom? Mom is that you?

Lorraine

There, there now. Just relax. You've been asleep for almost nine hours now.

Marty

I had a horrible nightmare. I dreamed I went back in time. It was terrible.

Lorraine

Well your safe and sound now back in good ole' 1955.

Marty

1955! Ahh! Your my, m... Your my m...!

Lorraine

My name is Lorraine. Lorraine Banes.

Marty

Yeah! But your so, uh, your so... thin!

Lorraine

Just relax, Calvin. You got a big bruise on your head.

Marty

Where are my pants?

Lorraine

Over there. On my hope chest. I've never seen purple underwear before, Calvin.

Marty

Calvin? Why do you keep calling me Calvin?

Lorraine

That's your name isn't it? Calvin Klein? It's written all over your underwear. Oh, I guess they call you "Cal."

Marty

No, actually people call me Marty.

Lorraine

Oh. Please to meet you, Calvin... Marty... Klein.

Marty

You're alive! [Doc unbuttons his suit to reveal the bulletproof vest] Bulletproof vest? How did you know? I di-I never got a chance to tell you. [Doc reveals Marty's torn-up 1955 letter which has been taped back together] What about all that talk about screwing up future events? The spacetime continuum?

Well, I figured, "what the hell?"

Marty

Do you know where -

Are you gonna order something, kid!

Marty

Uh, yeah. Give me a, give me a Tab.

"Tab"? I can't give you a tab unless you order something!

Marty

All right, just give me a Pepsi 'Free'.

If you want a Pepsi, pal, you've gonna to pay for it!

Marty

Look, just give me something without any sugar in it, okay.

Something without sugar...
[Lou plunks down a cup of coffee in front of Marty]

Marty

Do you know where Riverside Drive is?

Sam Baines

It's at the other end of town. A block past Maple. East end of town.

Marty

Wait, a block past Maple. That's John F. Kennedy Drive.

Sam Baines

Who the hell is John F. Kennedy?

Lorraine

Mother, with Marty's parents out of town, don't you think he oughta spend the night? I mean, after all, Dad almost killed him with the car.

That's true, Marty. I think that maybe you should spend the night. I think you're our responsibilty.

Marty

Ah, jeez, I don't know...

Lorraine

And he can sleep in my room. [squeezes Marty's knee]

Marty

I gotta go! Thank you very much. You've all been great. I'll see you all later... much later. [leaves]

He's a very strange young man.

He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. Parents are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid who acts that way I'll disown you.

Marty

Doc!

Huh?

Marty

I have to tell you about the future!

Huh?

Marty

I have to tell you about the future!

What!

Marty

On the night I go back in time you get - [The clock chimes 10:00] ...shot.

Marty

Hey Doc, you better back up, we don't have enough road to get up to 88.

Roads? Where we're going, we don't need... roads.

Marty

Hey George. I've been looking all over for you. Remember that girl I introduced you to; Lorraine? What are you writing?

George

Uh, stories. Science fiction stories about visitors coming down to Earth from other planets.

Marty

Get out of town, I didn't know you did anything creative. Well, here let me read some -

George

Oh, no, no, no. I never, I never let anybody read my stories.

Marty

Why not?

George

Well, what if the didn't like them? What if they told me I was no good? I guess that might be hard for somebody to understand.

Marty

Uh, no. Not hard at all. So, anyway, George, about Lorraine. She really likes you. She told me to tell you that she wants you to ask her to the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance.

George

Really?

Marty

Oh, yeah! All you gotta do is go over there and ask her.

George

Whoa, like right here, right now in the cafeteria? What if she says "no?" I don't think I can take that kind of a rejection. Besides, I think she'd rather go with someone else.

Marty

Uh, who?

George

Biff.

Marty

Look, Doc, you gotta help me. You're the only one who knows how your time machine works.

Time machine? I haven't invented any time machine.

Marty

Okay. Okay, I'll prove it to you. Look at my driver's license. Expires: 1987. Look at my birth date, for crying out loud, I haven't even been born yet! Oh, and look at this picture. It's my brother, my sister and me. Look at her sweatshirt, Doc, class of 1984.

Pretty mediocre photographic fakery; they cut off your brother's hair!

Marty

Listen, Doc, you got to believe me.

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

Marty

Ronald Reagan.

Ronald Reagan? The actor!? [chuckles in disbelief] Then who's vice-president, Jerry Lewis? I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady? And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury!

Marty

Sorry about your barn. (Old Man Peabody tries to shoot him)

It's already mutated into human form, shoot it!

Take that, you mutated son of a bitch!

Marty

Sounds pretty heavy.

Weight has nothing to do with it.

Marty

This is heavy, Doc.

There's that word again, 'heavy'. Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?

Marty

What?
