A scene from Scent of a Woman 1992
Officer Gore

License and registration. [Charlie hands over some papers.] What, are you test driving this baby?

Col. Slade

Don't she purr, though?

Officer Gore

At 70 miles an hour?

Col. Slade

You should hear it at 125. Ha!

Officer Gore

Where's your license?

Col. Slade

At the dealer's. They give it back to you when you return the car.

Officer Gore

You got ID?

Col. Slade

You bet. Indeed. [Hands over his ID]

Officer Gore

[Looking at the card]

"Lieutenant Colonel Slade."

Col. Slade

And you, soldier?

Officer Gore

The name is Police Officer Gore.

Col. Slade

You're doin' a hell of a job, Gore!

Officer Gore

Oh, and so are you, Colonel. Who's the kid?

Col. Slade

My boy Charlie. He kept tellin' me to "let her out, let her out"; what was I gonna do, disappoint him?

Officer Gore

Yes. [Pauses] Tell you what I'm gonna do, Colonel. I'm gonna let you go. On one condition.

Col. Slade

What's that?

Officer Gore

That you take this rig straight back to the dealer.

Charlie

Y-you got it.

Col. Slade

Shut up.

Officer Gore

[Holds out the papers]

You want this?

Col. Slade

Sure. [Reaches out and takes the papers] Gore, your face and your voice are familiar. You ever in the Officers' Club at Danang?

Officer Gore

No.

Col. Slade

Ever in the Army?

Officer Gore

No, Coast Guard.

Col. Slade

Good Lord. Ha ha!

Officer Gore

[frowns, then laughs]

Your dad's looking good, Charlie. He's got a heavy foot, though. Tell him to take it light, all right?
