Boy, a guy goes to jail for a couple of days and the whole town goes to hell!
Sully Okay, Shyster, who do you like?
The plaintiff. It's a lock.
Sully I'll take the defendant.
Birdy You weren't even here for the stories.
Sully Yeah, but I know my lawyer.
Sooner or later we'll wear the bastards down. The court is already starting to get pissed. You heard the judge.
Sully He's pissed at you, Wirf!
Only because he knows I won't go away.
Sully I know how he feels.
Sully Don't tell me she's pregnant.
Knocked up like a cheerleader. Eh, I suppose now you're gonna to want to be godfather.
Sully Hey... I can't be the father and the godfather. You got to goddamn do something.
Did you come to steal our new snowblower?
Sully I've already done it, just about.
I could legally shoot you, you know.
Sully Not unless I'm breaking and entering.
ARE you gonna break and enter?
Sully What's happening with Dummy?
I don't know. He took my threat to shoot him a lot more seriously than you just did.
Sully Poor guy just had a bypass. Maybe he's trying to cram everything he can do into six months. When he realizes he's going to live until he's seventy, he'll slow down.
If I had my way, he wouldn't live to Thanksgiving.
Oh, you're a man among men, Sully.
Sully Well, thanks.
That wasn't a compliment!
Sixty years old and still getting crushes on other men's wives. I would hope by the time I'm your age, I'm a little smarter than that.
Sully Can't hurt to hope. You sure are off to a slow start.
Mom's greatest fear is that your life was fun.
Sully Tell her not to worry.
It's not gonna be easy being you, is it?
Sully Don't expect much from yourself at the beginning. I couldn't do everything at first, either.
Do you still bet on that horse race of yours?
Sully What, the trifecta?
Yes. Has it ever come in?
Sully Not yet.
But you still bet on it.
Sully Well, sure. I mean, the odds have gotta kick in sooner or later.
Fine. That's exactly the way I feel about you.
Sully Dogs don't eat buns.
You're buying ground beef for your dog?
Sully I don't own a dog.
Oh, God. I don't believe this. I'm a member of Greenpeace and I just helped poison a dog.
Sully Well for one thing, it ain't poison. For another, you didn't help much.
Sully You ain't naked or anything, are ya?
No, but I can be in about 2 seconds.
Sully Well, take your time. I need a cup of coffee. [on phone] Ace Towing? Sullivan. I'm just around the corner. 313 Harvin. Pick me up. Charge it. Tip Top Construction Company. Thanks. [hangs up phone] Horace?...
Hi, Sully. I ain't naked either.
Sully Thank God for that!
Sully Go home, you jerk. You're married to the best-looking woman in Bath.
Who was it that said, "A man's reach should exceed his grasp?"
Charlotte How can you live in a town this size and not see your ex-wife all the time?
Sully That's easy, dolly. Peter's mom and I don't exactly travel in the same circles. As a matter of fact, Vera pretty much travels in a straight line.
SOMEBODY in this family had to.
Sully I should have known better than to hire a one-legged lawyer.
You can't afford a two-legged lawyer.
Sully A condemned man has a right to a last request doesn't he? I got my truck out back whaddya say we get in the back get naked and see where it goes from there?
Birdy Ok
Sully Haven't you got any pride?
Birdy Go to jail, Sully, it's where you belong.
Sully I can't believe it's gonna take you that long to get me out of jail.
Don't blame me, I'm a Jew. They're not my holidays.
Sully A Jew? Really? I didn't know that. How come you ain't smart?
How can I start getting you out of jail when you won't go in?
So if you're not a father to me, how come you're a grandfather to Will?
Sully 'Cause you gotta start someplace.
Sully What's the matter with you?
I'm trying to communicate with you telepathically.
Forget about it. The only way to communicate with Sully's to whack him in the head with a shovel.
You'd keep my leg, wouldn't you?
Sully You don't need a leg, you need a parrot.
Doesn't it bother you that you haven't done more with the life God gave you?
Sully Not often. Now and then.
Sully No. Not now. Not ever.
Sully I want to thank you for thinking of me.
Yeah.
Sully I, uh... You know, until a while ago, I could've... I could've... but... I just found out I'm somebody's grandfather. I'm somebody's father, and... and maybe... I'm somebody's friend in the bargain. So...
Yeah. You are a man among men.
Sully I know, it's not a compliment.
No, this time it is.
Sully How about that? Intelligence, hard work and good looks finally pay off.
And to think we were here to see it.
Sully There's a rumor going around that you did a good deed. You stuck your nose where it didn't belong.
I know it. I'm an old woman, though. I'm entitled.
Sully Well, you're forgiven.
