Can you ever really trust anyone? taglines
Johnny
edit- You are lying! I never hit you! YOU ARE TEARING ME APART, LISA!
- [on his job at the bank] They betray me, they didn't keep their promise, they trick me, and I don't care anymore.
- [comes outside with a water bottle] I did not hit her, it's not true! It's bullshit! I did not hit her! [throws the bottle on the ground in anger] I did not! Oh hi, Mark.
- Everybody betray me! I fed up with this world!
- [to Lisa] Do you understand life?! Do you?!
- Get out, get out, get out of my life!
- YOU'RE NOT GOING TO (BLEEP) MOTHER!
- Why, Lisa, why? Please talk to me! Pleeease! You are part of my life! You are everything! I cannot go on without you, Lisa!
- You can love someone deep inside your heart, and there is nothing wrong with it. If a lot of people love each other, the world would be a better place to live.
- You know what they say, "Love is blind!"
- I'm tired, I'm wasted, I love you, darling! [laughing]
- Thank you honey, this is a beautiful party. You invited all of my friends! Good thinking!
- God...forgive me. [kills himself]
Mark
edit- You don't understand anything, man. Leave your stupid comments in your pocket!
- Oh man, I just can't figure women out. Sometimes they're just too smart. Sometimes they're flat-out stupid. Other times they're just evil.
- As far as I'm concerned, you can drop off the Earth! That's a promise.
- Do you think girls like to cheat like guys do?
Lisa
edit- She's a stupid bitch. She wants to control my life. I'm not going to put up with that. I'm going to do what I want to do, and that's it. What do you think I should do?
- You think you're an angel... You're just like everybody else.
Claudette
edit- Men are assholes. Men and women use and abuse each other all the time, there's nothing wrong with it. Marriage has nothing to do with love.
Peter
edit- People are people. Sometimes they just can't see their own faults.
Others
edit- Steven: I feel like I'm sitting on an atomic bomb waiting for it to go off!
- Chris R: Five minutes?! You want five (BLEEP) minutes, Denny? You know what? [pulls out gun] I haven't got FIVE FUCKIN' MINUTES!!

- Johnny: Denny, do you have something else to do?
- Denny: I just like to watch you guys.
- Lisa: Oh, Denny, Denny, Denny boy!
- Johnny: Denny, two is great, but three's a crowd. Ha ha ha.
- Denny: I get it. You guys wanna be alone.
- Johnny: That's the idea.
- Denny: Fine. I have homework anyway. Bye, love birds.
- Johnny: Bye, Denny.
- Lisa: Bye, Denny.
- Lisa: You can come out now, Johnny. She's gone.
- Johnny: In a few minutes, bitch.
- Lisa: Who are you calling a bitch?!
- Johnny: You and your stupid mother.
- Mark: I used to know a girl, she had a dozen guys. One of them found out about it… beat her up so bad she ended up at a hospital on Guerrero Street.
- Johnny: Hahaha. What a story, Mark!
- Mark: Yeah, you can say that again.
- Lisa: Did you get your promotion?
- Johnny: Nah.
- Lisa: You didn't get it, did you?
- Johnny: That son-of-a-bitch told me I will get it within three months. I saved them bundles. They're crazy. I don't think I'll ever get it. They betrayed me, they didn't keep their promise, they tricked me, and I don't care anymore.
- Johnny: The bank saves money and they are using me, and I am the fool.
- Lisa: I still love you.
- Johnny: You're the only one who does.

- Lisa: I told him that to make it interesting.
- Mark: How was work today?
- Johnny: Oh pretty good. We got a new client... at the bank. We make a lot of money.
- Mark: What client?
- Johnny: I cannot tell you, it's confidential.
- Mark: Oh come on. Why not?
- Johnny: No, I can't. Anyway, how is your sex life?
- Denny: So what sort of movie are we gonna see?
- Johnny: Well, we'll see... Denny, don't plan too much. It may not come out right.
- Claudette: Oh! That jerk, Harold! He wants me to give him a share of my house. That house belongs to me! He has no right! I’m not giving him a penny! Who does he think he is?
- Lisa: He's your brother.
- Claudette: He is always bugging me about my house. Fifteen years ago, we agreed that house belongs to me. Now the value of the house is going up and he’s seeing dollar signs. Everything goes wrong at once. Nobody wants to help me, and I’m dying.
- Lisa: You're not dying, mom.
- Claudette: I got the results of the test back. I definitely have breast cancer.
- Lisa: Look, don't worry about it. Everything will be fine.
- Mark: If you kept your girl satisfied, she wouldn't have come to me!
- Johnny: Get out of my house. [attacks Mark] I'll kill you! I'll break every bone in your body! [gets stopped by party attendants]
- Lisa: STOP IT!
- Johnny: I'll kill you, you bastard!
- Mark: You couldn't kill me if you tried...
- Johnny: You betrayed me! You're not good, you... you're just a chicken! Cheep, cheep, cheep, cheep, cheep, cheep! [Mark attacks him again]
