Pete Bottoms
[about a Texas Ranger]

Look, he comes in here everyday. We bullshit, and he's used my bathroom about a thousand times. If I said no this time he'd know somethin' was up.

Okay, I want him out of here, in his car, and down the road or you can change the name of this place to Benny's World of Blood.

Richie

The Ranger's taking a piss. Why don't I just go there, blow his head off and get outta here.

Pete Bottoms

Don't do that! Look, you asked me to act natural, and I'm acting as natural - in fact, under the circumstances, I think I ought get a ****in' Academy Award for how natural I'm acting.

Pete Bottoms

Whatsamatter?

[sighs]

Ah, it's just been a shit-ass day, every inch of it hot and miserable. First off, Nadine at the Blue Chip got some sorta sick, so that mongoloid boy of hers was working the grill. That **** idiot don't know rat shit from Rice Krispies. I ate breakfast at nine, was puking up pigs in a blanket like a sick dog by 10:30.

Pete

Isn't there a law or something against **** serving food to the public?

Well, if there ain't there sure ought to be. Who knows what goes on inside mongoloid's mind?

Pete

You could sue the shit out of her, you know. That kid belongs under a circus tent, not flipping burgers. You could own that **** place.

What the hell would I do with that grease pit? Besides, Nadine's got enough of a cross to bear just taking care of that potato head.
