Eddie Moscone quotes from Midnight Run (1988)

Jack Walsh

Where am I? I'm in Boise, Idaho. No, no, no, wait a minute, I'm in Anchorage, Alaska. No, no, wait, I'm in Casper, Wyoming. I'm in the lobby of a Howard Johnson's and I'm wearing a pink carnation.

Eddie Moscone

What the **** are you talking about?

Jack Walsh

I am not talking to you, I am talking to the other guys.

Eddie Moscone

What other guys?

Jack Walsh

Well, let me describe the scene to you. There are these guys, see? They've probably been up for like two days. They stink of B.O., they have coffee breath, they're constipated from sittin' on their asses for so long, they're sitting in a van, and they're probably parked right up the street from your office, Eddie. YOUR PHONE IS TAPPED!

Jack Walsh

We are driving now, and I only have enough cash to get to Amarillo. We had to scrap the bus.

Eddie Moscone

**** the bus! I wanna know what happened to the goddamn plane!

Jack Walsh

He doesn't like to fly.

Eddie Moscone

He doesn't like to fly?! What the **** does that mean?! Listen to me, Jack! You gotta be back here in less than two and a half ****in' days! A half million dollars of my money, what the **** is goin' on there?!!

Jack Walsh

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie, I swear to God, don't start with me now or I will shoot him and I will dump him in a ****in' swamp! [vigorously shakes his head at Mardukas]

Jack Walsh

Guess who I'm with? I'm with the Duke.

Eddie Moscone

Where the hell are you?

Jack Walsh

Where am I? I'm at the airport. And guess who I'm with? I'm with the Duke!

Eddie Moscone

You got him! [thumps the desk with a fist] You got him, Jack! I love you!

Jack Walsh

Yeah. You wanna say hello?

Eddie Moscone

Yeah, put him on!

Jack Walsh

Say hello.

Hello.

Eddie Moscone

Hello, you son of a bitch! We got you, you son of a bitch!

Jack Walsh

Now say good-bye, ya lying little piece of shit, because I'm lettin' him go! [hangs up]
