Loretta: Quit stallin'. Give me my 100 bucks.
Hollow Legs: Come on, I thought we were friends?
Loretta: Oh, bull! You play, you pay.
Hollow Legs: Jes, you know you're not worth $100, darlin'.
Loretta: [pulls out a gun] Unless you want another hollow leg, you better dig in for some of that green stuff. Now, either you come across or I tell Mike Thompson how you raped me.
Hollow Legs: Alright, now, darlin'. Jesus, put that thing away. You're makin' me very nervous, there, the way you point it at the family jewels. There you go?
Loretta: What about my tip?
Hollow Legs: Oh, Jes, I'm terribly sorry. I nearly forgot. Here you go. And that's the second tip you had from me tonight.

Hollow Legs: [toilet flushes, walks out of the bathroom] How are you, darlin'? Just shakin' the dew off me lily.

Rob Wilson: It's hard to kick somebody out that's been livin' with you for six months, you know.

Maria Wilson: Come on wit your lie.
Rob Wilson: I ain't got no lie. I'm human. I been up here a long time. And, baby, you just got to understand that. That's all.
Maria Wilson: Oh, human. Why do men always have to be so "human"? Suppose I shacked up wit a man for six months? Would you understand that?

Rosey Rottencrotch: Two weeks? Honey, I cannot afford to be out of work two weeks.
Doctor: If you don't. You may never work again.
