Chili Palmer. Chilly outside. Chili inside. It's a regular ****in' chili-fest. Hey, waiter, give Mr Chili Pepper a big ****in' bowl of chili!

Yeah well, I hope you drive better than you **** spell, jack-off. My name is Barboni, not Barbone, okay!

'E.g.' means 'for example', Ray. I think what you wanna say is 'i.e.'

Ray "Bones"

Bullshit. E.g. is short for 'ergo'.

Chili

Ask your man here.

Best a my knowledge, e.g. means 'for example.'

Ray "Bones"

E.g., i.e., **** you. The point is, I say jump, you say okay. Okay?

You ever wanta go to the beach, here's the freeway you take we're coming to.

I live in Miami and you want to show me a ****in' beach? The sun ever come out here, or you have this smog all the time?

Ronnie

The man you're steppin' on belongs to me and my partner.

Ray "Bones"

He owes me money.

Ronnie

Get in line, bro.

Ray "Bones"

I don't like waiting.

Ronnie

Tough shit, bro. This ain't Miami. You want something, talk to me.

Ray "Bones"

Hey, ****ball, I don't need your permission. L.A.'s an open city.

Ronnie

Yeah, well, I just closed it.

Chili

You don't need that. You want to sit down and talk, it's fine with me. Get this straightened out. How'd you get in here?

Ray "Bones"

I told them I was you. I acted stupid and they believed me.

Ray "Bones"

Momo is dead, which means that everything that he had now belongs to Jimmy Capp, including you, which also means when I speak, I'm speaking for Jimmy — e.g. from now on you start showing me the proper **** respect.

Chili

"e.g." means "for example." I think what you want to say is "i.e."

Ray "Bones"

Bullshit. That's short for "ergo."

Chili

Ask your man.

To best of my knowledge, "e.g." means "for example."

Ray "Bones"

e.g., i.e., **** you! The point is this, is that when I say jump, you say "okay." Okay?

Ronnie

The man you're standin' on happens to belong to me and my partner, bro.

Ray "Bones"

Well, this piece of shit owes me money.

Ronnie

Hey, get in line.

Ray "Bones"

Yeah, but I don't like waiting in lines.

Ronnie

Tough shit, bro. This ain't Miami. You want something, you gotta talk to me.

Ray "Bones"

No, no, no. **** you. ****ball. I mean, L.A is an open city, and I don't think I have to get permission from nobody for nothing.

Ronnie

Oh really? Well, I just closed it.

Ray "Bones"

That man, he's got no respect for us.

No, he's got no respect for you!
