Frankie: [covers Brick's mouth] Don't scream. It's okay. We still have each other.
Police Officer #2: As you clean up, keep track of what's missing for the insurance report.

Police Officer #2: Glad you still got your sense of humor. That's something no one can steal.

Brick: Arabian or quarter horse? Because Arabians need a much bigger paddock. [whispers] Paddock.
