Dialogue

edit
Phil: Tracy, it's Phil.
Tracy: Phil, where the hell are you guys? I'm freaking out.
Phil: Yeah, listen. Uh... we fucked up.
Tracy: What are you talking about?
Phil: The bachelor party-- The whole night-- Things got outta control, and, uh…we lost Doug.
Tracy: What?
Phil: We can't find Doug.
Tracy: What are you saying, Phil? We're getting married in five hours!
Phil: Yeah. That's not gonna happen.

Sid: Remember, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Doug: Ah!
Sid: Except for herpes. That shit'll come back with ya.

Alan: I want you to know, Doug, I'm a steel trap. Whatever happens tonight, I will never, ever, ever speak a word of it.
Doug: Okay. I got it. Thank you. I don't think that...
Alan: Seriously. I don't care what happens. I don't care if we kill someone.
Doug: What?
Alan: You heard me. It's Sin City. I won't tell a soul.
Doug: Okay. I got it. Thank you.
Alan: No, thank you. [the two future in-laws embrace] I love you so much.

Doug: All good with Melissa?
Stu: Oh, yeah. Told her we're two hours outside of wine country, and she bought it.
Phil: Don't you think it's strange that you've been in a relationship for three years, and you still have to lie about going to Vegas?
Stu: Yeah, I do. But trust me, it's not worth the fight.
Phil: Oh, so you can't go to Vegas, but she can fuck a bellhop on a Carnival Cruise Line?
Stu: Okay. First of all, he was a bartender. And she was wasted. And, if you must know, he didn't even cum inside her.
Phil: And you believe that?
Stu: Uh, yeah, I do believe that, because she's grossed out by semen.

Alan: I like to say somethin' that I prepared tonight.
Stu: All right, Alan.
Alan: [extracts a sheet of paper; presents his speech] Hello. How 'bout that ride in? I guess that's why they call it Sin City. You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner. I tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack. But when my sister brought Doug home, I knew he was one of my own. And my wolf pack, it grew by one. So, there were two of us in the wolf pack. I was alone first in the pack, and then Doug joined in later. And six months ago, when Doug introduced me to you guys, I thought, "Wait a second, could it be?" And now I know for sure, I just added two more guys to my wolf pack. Four of us wolves, running around the desert together, in Las Vegas, looking for strippers and cocaine. So tonight, I make a toast! [pulls out a pocket knife]
Stu: What?!
Doug: Whattaya got there?
[Alan tries to cut his palm, to the others' shock]
Phil: What the fuck?!
Doug What are you doin'?!
[Alan groans in pain]
Stu: What is that?!
Alan: Blood brothers.

Phil: [sees Alan with his new satchel] You're not really wearin' that, are you?
Alan: Wearin' what?
Phil: The man purse. You actually gonna wear that, or you guys just fuckin' with me?
Alan: It's where I keep all my things. Get a lot of compliments on this. Plus it's not a man purse. It's called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one.
Phil: So does Joy Behar.

Alan: Guys. Guys. What about the tiger? What if he got out?
Phil: Oh, fuck! I keep forgetting about the goddamn tiger! How the fuck did he get in there?
Stu: I don't know, because I don't remember.
Phil: Shh! Stu! Stu, keep it down.
Alan: One of the side-effects of roofies is memory loss.
Stu: You are literally too stupid to insult.

Phil: All right. We got the money. 80 grand cash.
Chow: Throw it over! Then I give you Doug.
Stu: I'm sorry. First of all, good morning. We didn't catch your name last night.
Chow: Mr. Chow. Leslie Chow.
Stu: Mr. Chow, it is a pleasure. My name is Stu. And we would very much appreciate an opportunity to see Doug before we give you the money, to verify that he's okay, if that's cool.
Chow: Of course, Stu. That is cool. [claps hands, and a man with a bag on his head is brought out of the car]
Stu: [relieved] Oh. Okay.
Chow: See? He fine. Now, gimme money, or I shoot him, and I shoot all you motherfuckers! And then we take it! Your choice, bitches!

Melissa: I called that bed and breakfast in Napa. They said they had no record of you even checking in.
Stu: That's 'cause we didn't go to Napa.
Melissa: Stu, what the fuck is going on?
Stu: We went to Las Vegas.
Melissa: Oh, really? Las Vegas? Why would you go to Las Vegas?
Stu: 'Cause my best friend was getting married, and that's what guys do.
Melissa: Uh-huh?
Stu: Yeah.
Melissa: That's not what you do.
Stu: Really? Well, then, why did I do it?! Huh?! 'Cause I did it! Riddle me that! Why'd I do it?! You know, sometimes I think all you want me to do is what you want me to do. Well, I'm sick of doing what you want me to do all the time. I think, in a healthy relationship, sometimes a guy should be able to do what he wants to do.
Melissa: That is not how this works!
Stu: Oh, good! Because whatever this is ain't workin' for me!
Melissa: Oh, really?
Stu: Yeah!
Melissa: Since when?!
Stu: Since you fucked that waiter on your cruise last June! BOOM!!!
Alan: You told me it was a bartender.
Stu: Oh. You're right. I stand corrected. It was a bartender. You fucked a bartender.
Melissa: You're an idiot.
Stu: You're a-- You... [struggles] You're... such a bad person! Like, all the way through to your core!

[to a group of schoolchildren who are being shown a demonstration on how a taser works]
Officer Franklin: Ok, kids, you're in for a real treat today. These gentlemen have kindly volunteered to demonstrate how a stun gun is used to subdue a suspect... Now, there's two ways to use a stun gun: up close and personal…
[tasers Stu in the neck; Stu collapses]
Officer Franklin: …or you can shoot it from a distance. Now, do I have any volunteers? You wanna come up here and do some shootin’, huh? Alright. How about you, young lady? Come on up here.
Officer Franklin: Alright. Let's go, handsome. Come on.
[Alan steps forward]
Officer Franklin: Not you, fat Jesus. Slide it on back.
[to Phil]
Officer Franklin: You, pretty boy.
[to girl]
Officer Franklin: Alright. Now, it's real simple. All you gotta do is point, aim and shoot. Alright?
Phil: You don't really wanna do this.
Officer Franklin: You can do this. Just focus.
Phil: Don't listen to this maniac. Let's think this thing through.
Officer Franklin: Finish him!
[the girl tasers Phil]
Officer Franklin: Right in the nuts! That was beautiful! Well done! Give her a hand, everybody. Good job! Well done! Good job! That was great!
Officer Franklin: Look, hey, we got one more charge left. Anybody wanna do some shootin’ up here? How about you, big man?[to the boy who had his phone kicked out of his hand by Alan earlier] Come on up here. Okay, same instructions: just point, aim and shoot. There ya go. That's the stuff. I like the intensity, eye of the tiger. You're holdin’ 50,000 volts, little man. Don't be afraid to ride the lightning.
[the kid tasers Alan]

Officer Franklin: In the face! In the face!
