Detective Skinner

Special Agent Skinner. I'm a detective.

Dixie

You got some Oragel? This **** cavity's going into my brain. Morphine, Motrin, Tylenol, anything? Come on, you call yourself a dentist?

Detective Skinner

Detective. Teeth, gums, gingivitis are out of my line.

Dixie

Since I wasn't officially in the band, you know how it goes, it ain't easy.
Detective Skinner: Yeah, sure. That's not exactly why I'm here. Israel Goldkiss was pushed from the roof. That makes you a suspect.

Dixie

Jesus bleeding Christ! Are you paying attention? I'm talking The Beatles, here. The Fab Four. John understood. That's why they had him killed, you know? Now they're trying to kill me, because they finally realised who's behind all those songs. But I ain't seen no royalties.

Detective Skinner

Yeah, that's tough. But either you cooperate, or I book you.

Dixie

I've been doing nothing but cooperate my whole **** life. That's what it's all about to be in a band. I'm not saying they weren't creatively involved... but most of the time, they were off with that Maharishi. You know, India, whatever, you know. There I was, all alone in the studio with my brilliant ideas... Thank God I had George Martin. George... Oh, that album in particular, we grew together like this, me and George.
