Bud

Look at 'em, ordinary **** people, I hate 'em.

Bud

I shall not cause harm to any vehicle nor the personal contents thereof, nor through inaction let that vehicle or the personal contents thereof come to harm. It's what I call the Repo Code, kid. Don't forget it--etch it in your brain. Not many people got a code to live by anymore.

Bud

God damned dipshit Rodriguez gypsy dildo punks!

Bud

I don't allow no Commies in my car...no Christians, either!

Credit is a sacred trust, it's what our free society was founded on! Do you think they give a damn about their bills in Russia? I said do you think they give a damn about their bills in Russia!?

They don't pay bills in Russia, it's all free.

What are you, a ****in' Commie?

No, I aint no Commie!

Bud

I don't want no Commies in my car! [pause] No Christians, either!

You're all repo men.

What if we are?

Bud
[Otto pours beer onto the floor and tosses the can]

You know, kid, usually when someone pulls shit like that my first reaction is uh, I want to punch his **** lights out. But you know something?

You believe the Rodriguez Brothers? They're a couple of scumbags!

Oly

I know, but we need to sit down and get our stories straight. You're taking their word over mine!

Bud

I was there, remember?

Oly

Go home. Take the rest of the week off.

Bud

The rest-I can't take the..oh, I get it. So that you can get the 20,000 dollars for the Malibu. Make it a **** month!

Oly

Well, **** you. On second thought, don't bother coming back at all.

Bud

Great! I'll come back to get my stuff when the place don't stink so bad.
