Alex: [Louie's] really a very nice guy. He'd give you the scales right off his back.

Alex: Wouldn’t it be weird, after all this trouble, if we got there too late?
Tony: Don’t worry about it. We’ll make it. I once had to be in Miami in a hurry for a fight. I drove it in 23 hours all by myself. Wow, what a drive. I swallowed a whole handful of uppers. You know, when the guy knocked me out, I couldn’t close my eyes. (edit) Alex: (arm linked with Elaine’s and walking toward the phone with the other cab drivers standing in line on both sides of them) I feel like we’re getting married at Annapolis. (edit) Elaine: (referring to the cage around Louie’s desk) What’s wrong? Don’t they feed you in there? (edit) Bobby: I’m up for the part of the horse.
Tony: Yeah? Which end? (edit)
