A scene from Elvis 2005
Colonel Tom Parker

Why are you doing this to yourself? This religious kick, the drugs? What is it that you want?

Elvis Presley

You said that to me the first time we met.

Colonel Tom Parker

I remember. Rich and famous. You wanted to be a movie star. Well, I got it for you, so I'm asking you again: What is it you want now?

Elvis Presley

I don't know.

Colonel Tom Parker

Are you just bored is that it?

Elvis Presley

Well, there's that. I get so lonely.

Colonel Tom Parker

What about that little girl you got cooped up in there? Does she make you happy?

Elvis Presley

Sometimes.

Colonel Tom Parker

Why, son. That's more than most folk's ever get. Why don't you latch onto her before she wizes up. The whole scene, it's starting to get unseemly. You hear me? She's legal now, so what are you waiting for?

Elvis Presley

The right time.

Colonel Tom Parker

If that's the case, I'd check my watch, because if ever there was a time to set things straight, it's now.
