Rebecca Quote #213

Quote from Rebecca in Hot Rocks

Sam: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Come on. Back off here. They're earrings. You'll buy another pair.
Rebecca: Oh, yeah. Right! What are you going to do? Spot me $32,000?
Sam: American money?
Rebecca: I didn't exactly buy those earrings. I told the man at Shreve, Crump & Lowe that I just wanted to take them out for the evening to make sure that I really, really wanted them.
Sam: I don't think that dress is meant to do that.
Rebecca: And then I was going to just wear them tonight, and look really beautiful, you know? Then I was going to take them back in the morning. But God. Shreve is holding all my credit cards, the pink slip to my Mercedes, and my mom and dad's phone number.
Sam: Uh-oh. Good chance you could be sent to your room for five to 15 years.
Rebecca: You know, you're really not helping. Just get out of here. [Sam exits] God! I would do anything to get those earrings back. [Sam returns] Oh. Yes, Sam, I am exactly that desperate. I don't care what it takes. Go to the admiral's hotel room, sneak in there and steal those earrings. Just get them back for me and, yes, Lord help me, I will go to bed with you.
Sam: I'm going to turn this joint upside down. Starting with you.
Rebecca: Sam!
Sam: All right, all right, all right. Ending with you.

Admiral William J. Crowe Jr.: Were you ever in the Navy?
Cliff: No, sir, I wanted to be but the old asthma started kicking up, you know. So, uh, so I joined the U.S. Postal Service instead. I figured if I couldn't serve I should at least deliver the draft notices to those who could.

Quote from Rebecca

Sam: Look what I found in this dirty old glass.
Rebecca: Oh! Oh! Oh! You are such an angel! Oh, how can I ever thank you?
Sam: I think the how has already been established. We're up to where and how often.
Rebecca: Well... a promise is a promise.
Sam: Come on. I hate that. I hate it when you do that. Come on. What- What's wrong with you? Why- Why don't you want me? What's the problem?
Rebecca: You know, Sam, I really... I just don't know why I don't want you.
Sam: Well, think, damn it!
Rebecca: I think it's just one of those things that, when you first meet a guy, you put him in one of three categories: yes, no or maybe. And the second I saw you, I threw you right in that "no" category, and that's where you've stayed ever since. I mean, when Sam Malone walks into a room, I say "no" and go on with my life.
Sam: Every single time?
Rebecca: No. There was this one time, when you were way down at the end of the hall, and I could just see this tiny little piece of your elbow, and I didn't know for sure if it was you. And I thought to myself, hmm. And then you came around the corner, and I thought, "God, no!"
Sam: "God, no" is a lot worse than just no, isn't it?

Quote from Woody

Cliff: Where, uh, where's he taking you?
Rebecca: Only the society event of the season, celebrating the anniversary of the launching of Old Ironsides.
Woody: Wow, can you get Raymond Burr's autograph?
Rebecca: Woody, this is Old Ironsides, the ship. The USS Constitution.
Woody: I know; I was reading about it in the paper. Raymond Burr's gonna be there.
Rebecca: [gasps] Oh, God, I'm gonna be late.
Woody: Have him make it out to Woody, and make sure he signs it, Perry Mason, Ironsides, and that guy who cut up his wife in Rear Window.
