Quote from Mike in The Bridge
Mike: Okay. Here we go. It's like ripping off a Band-Aid. You're gonna thank me later. Brick: If you do this, I'll never be able to trust you again. Frankie: [v.o.] And just like that, Mike found himself in the spot I was in not so long ago. Mike: Look, I'm not gonna play games like your mom did. [later:] Mike: This is one of your favorites, right? [tosses Brick's book onto the bridge] You want it? Go get it. [Brick folds his arms] All right. I'm not gonna force you to go across the bridge before you're ready, okay? [later:] Mike: Get in the car! We're going over that bridge right now! I don't care if you're ready or not! [later:] Mike: I'm sorry, buddy. I was wrong to try to force you. We'll wait until you're ready. You take as long as you want. I'm not going anywhere. [later, Mike is in the car on the opposite end of the bridge:] Mike: I'm leaving! I'm leaving right now! You'd better get over here! [drives off] [later:] Mike: 10 bucks. Easiest money you'll ever make. Brick: Nope. Mike: How about ice cream? [later:] Mike: No more ice cream for the rest of your life! How about that?! [later, Mike and Brick arrive home:] Mike: Man, that kid is stubborn.
