So, tell me something, Miss Thelma. How is it you ain't got any kids? I mean God gets you something special, I think you oughta pass it on.
Well, Daryl, that's my husband.
Yeah, he says he's not ready yet. He says he's still too much of a kid himself. He kinda prides himself on being infantile.
Louise He's got a lot to be proud of.
Louise and him don't get along.
Louise That's putting it mildly.
Louise I KNOW he's a pig.
Louise You get what you settle for.
Louise You let her go, you **** asshole, or I'm gonna splatter your brains all over this nice car.
H Harlan
[Getting off of Thelma]
Easy, we're just having a little fun.
Louise Sounds like you got a real **** up idea of fun. Turn around. In the future, when a woman's crying like that, she isn't having any fun!
H Harlan
Bitch! I shoulda gone ahead and **** her!
Louise What did you say?
H Harlan
I said suck my ****.
[Louise shoots him]
Hey Louise, better slow down, I'll just die if we get caught over a speeding ticket. Are you sure we should be driving like this, I mean in broad daylight and everything?
Louise No we shouldn't, but I want to put some distance between us and the scene of our last God damned crime!
[Thelma laughs and screams]
Oh man! You wouldn'ta believed it, it was like I was doing it all my life, nobody woulda believed it.
Louise Think you found your calling?
May-be... may-be. [gets up in her seat] The call of the wild!
I know it's crazy, but I just feel like I got a knack for this shit.
Louise I believe you do.
Louise Should've gone to the police in the beginning, why didn't I?
Louise What'd I say?
That nobody would believe us. You know that jerk was really hurting me, and if you hadn't come along when you had he would've hurt me even worse. And probably nothing would've been done with him because I was dancing with him all night and everybody saw it and they'd figure I had it coming. My life would've been ruined a whole lot more than it is now, now I'm having fun. I'll tell you something else, I'm not the least bit sorry that creep is dead, I'm just sorry it was you who did it and not me.
Louise Guess you could call it that, my eyes are open.
I'm awake too. I feel awake.
Louise Good.
I feel really awake. I don't recall ever feeling this awake. You know? Everything looks different now. You feel like that? You feel like you got something to live for now?
Louise We'll be drinking margaritas by the sea, mamacita.
You know we could change our names.
Louise To live in a hacienda.
I want to get a job, I'll work at Club Med.
Louise Yeah, what kind of deal is that cop going to have to come up with to top that?
Louise Have to be pretty damn good.
[with a cliff in front of them and cops behind them]
OK, then listen; let's not get caught.
Louise What're you talkin' about?
Louise What d'you mean?
Louise You sure?
