Francis: So, how's he doin'?
Eric: I was up with him all night. He got pretty wild but I think he's doin' better now.
Spangler: I wanna die! Why can't I just die?!
Francis: Stop talking like that, sir. This is just a momentary setback.
Spangler: I have nothing to live for. Mother no longer acknowledges me. I have no friends, no money. I won't even tell you how I paid for my journey up here.
Eric: If it means anything to you, sir, you taught me how to be a man.
Spangler: I have no idea who you are.
Eric: You don't remember me? After all that time at Marlin, the hell that you put me through, you don't even remember me?
Spangler: Cadet Dudley?
Eric: No, Eric! I just spent the last ten hours cradling you!
Francis: Sir, this is because you're not feeling useful. Look, I talked to some people and I think I may have found you a job.
Spangler: A what?
Francis: It'd be with the Interior Department. You'd be helping the environment, working with people. You would be making a real difference.
Spangler: I can do that. Thank you, son. And, please, thank that girl for rocking me in her arms all night long.
