David Fox quotes from Vacancy (2007)

David Fox

I bet this gets the honeymooners in the mood.

David

Son of a bitch!

Amy

What are you doing?

David

It was a goddamn raccoon in the middle of the road!

Amy

Well, better to kill us than get a little roadkill on the car, huh?

David

Well, we're still alive. I can tell by the pissy look that you're giving me.

Amy

I'm sleeping in my clothes tonight.

David

I'm sleeping in my shoes.

David Fox

Do you think they're closed?

Amy Fox

Since 1957.

David Fox

That's too bad, because they've got good gas prices.

Amy Fox

Why didn't you just stay on the interstate?

David Fox

I don't know. I guess I just wanted to make this as miserable as possible, you know? See just how big a bitch you'd be about it.

Mason

Hey folks. How can I help you?

David Fox

Everything, uh, okay back there?

Mason

Oh! [walks back to the office and turns off tape] Sorry. Things get a little boring around here late nights!

David Fox

Yeah, we'll go ahead and stay here. Thanks.

Mason

I'll give you two the honeymoon suite, for five dollars extra. It's got a few perks that the others don't.

Amy Fox

Regular room will be fine, thank you.

Mason

What the heck, I'll give it to you for the same rate.

David Fox

I guess it could be worse, you know. We could be stuck in that twin bed at your folk's house, trying to pretend like we're a happy couple.

Amy Fox

God, I should've told my mom about us.

David Fox

Why ruin their party though? I think the thing to do is just tell them after we've signed the papers. It felt really strange to be at that party, watching them all, celebrate being together all those years. How'd it make you feel?

Amy Fox

I don't know. Tired.

David Fox

I'm sorry. Never should've gotten off the interstate, either.

Amy Fox

Miss our last one great adventure together?

David Fox

Boy, you were really dreaming over there earlier. You were mumbling, jerking around.

Amy Fox

I dreamt you were trying to kill me. We were at my parents anniversary party and my mother wouldn't stop talking. You started screaming you couldn't take it anymore, and then you tried to strangle me.

David Fox

Hey, at least you were dreaming about me, right? That's kind of an improvement.

Mason

Everything alright, Mr. Fox?

David Fox

Uh, no, because the asshole in the room right beside us keeps banging on the walls and won't stop. You got any ideas?

Mason

The room beside you?

David Fox

Yeah, room 3. Uh, I go over there to talk with the guy to try to get him to stop, but he just kind of keeps doing it. So, uh, I gotta say I don't know what his problem is.

Mason

It's very strange, seeing as you folks are the only guests I've got in here tonight.

David Fox

Well, somebody's in there, okay, and I gotta say I'm pretty exhausted.

Mason

You sure it's room 3?

David Fox

Yeah. We're in the corner, right? Number 4? Well, it's the room right besides us with the big rusty 3 on it!

Amy Fox

Is that this room?

David Fox

It sure looks like it.

Amy Fox Please, David, don't go out there!

David Fox

Look, if we stay here, we're going to wind up like all of them.

Mason

911 Emergency?

David Fox

Yeah, hello. We need some help. Some people are trying to kill us.

Mason

Where are you located, sir?

David Fox

Me and my wife, we're at this motel, the Pinewood Motel. It's near the mountains. They've got us trapped.

Mason

Who has you trapped, sir?

David Fox

I don't know. We just need help. The Pinewood Motel.

Mason

Yes, sir. Do you have an address?

David Fox

No! It's near some woods. Jesus Christ, look it up!

Mason

You're going to need to settle down, sir. You'll never survive if you lose control, Mr. Fox.

Mason

You shouldn't be wandering around in the dark by yourself.

Amy Fox

Why are they doing this?

David Fox

They might be enjoying themselves.

David Fox

Never see stars anymore. At least not in L.A. It's kind of nice out here, really. I bet Charlie would've liked it.

Amy Fox

Well you should've brought us sometime. We never went anywhere; the job was always too important to leave.

David Fox

Why do you do that?

Amy Fox

Do what?

David Fox

Every time I mention his name you take a shot at me.

Amy Fox

Well stop mentioning his name!

David Fox

Well you see, I'm not like you Amy. I'd rather just kind of remember him and deal with the pain.

David Fox

So how far back was the gas station?

Amy Fox

I don't know, about a mile. Kind of a long walk in the middle of the night.

David Fox

Yeah, I mean I guess we could just sit here and hope some idiots like us come along and give us a hand, huh?

Amy Fox

I didn't get us lost.

David Fox

No, you slept for three hundred miles, thanks to your Zoloft-Prozac cocktail.
