Dialogue

edit
Paul Conway: [Elvira rolls the basketball inside her house] Hey, you can't do that.
Elvira Parker: Oh yes, I can. My property. My house. My ball.
Tom: What a witch!
Samantha Pringle: [Samantha has a nosebleed] Do you have some ice?
Jeannie Conway: Oh my God. Come on in. Sit down. Paul, get some ice. [to Samantha] Hold your head back, back. [to Paul] Hurry. [to Samantha] What happened?
Samantha Pringle: Nothing. I just get them sometimes.
Paul Conway: Here you go.
Jeannie Conway: Listen, sweetheart, this may be butting in where I don't belong, but don't you think someone should say something?
Samantha Pringle: For what, a nosebleed? Come on, I've had them since I was a kid. Ice will take care of it. I just forgot to fill the tray.
Jeannie Conway: Oh, Sam, I don't like this.
Samantha Pringle: I hate them.
Jeannie Conway: C'mon you know what I mean. It's criminal. He could go to jail.
Samantha Pringle: He's my father. Sometimes I want to roll a truck over his face but he's still my father.
Samantha Pringle: Daddy? Are you in my room?
Harry Pringle: [Harry grabs her from behind] Where have you been?
[he slaps her]
Samantha Pringle: I was studying Daddy, I had homework.
Harry Pringle: You lying little bitch!
[he hits her and she falls down the stairs and hits her head]
Harry Pringle: Okay, come on, now. None of this shit. You get the hell up. Samantha. I'm not joking. You wanna know what real trouble is? I mean it. You get the hell up and get in your room.
Paul Conway: [yelling at Tom as they're getting ready to flee the hospital, with Sam's body, in the VW bus] Goddammit! There's still a chance! Things we can do! We've gotta' go now - sit down!
Tom Toomey: I want out. I mean it... I'm gonna' throw up.
Paul Conway: Throw up later.
[they speed off]
Tom Toomey: [as Paul starts to operate on Sam's brain] Are you sure you know what you're doing?
Paul Conway: How do you think I built BB? I studied brain physiology and cognitive theory till it's coming out of my ears. I have ideas no one's ever thought of.
Tom Toomey: I'll buy that.
Neighbor: Old man Pringle and Mrs. Parker, both dead. His face was burned off.
Paul Conway: Elvira Parker?
Neighbor: Yeah, I heard somebody say she called the police. Said she saw Sam in her bedroom window. From what I hear, Elvira's head's all over the walls in there.
[Sam emerges into an evil version of BB and chokes Paul to his death, talking in a evil, whispering voice]
Samantha Pringle: Paul. Come with me, Paul.
Paul Conway: [screaming] NOOOOOOOO!
[Sam snaps Paul's neck]
Samantha Pringle: BB.
