- Kellie: My Ma died when I was six. It hurt Pa something awful. He lost his job and they took our house away after... He rode out with some men, and he changed. I know he did a lot of wrong things, but he was my Pa! You know, don't you? He was my Pa!
- Ann Williams: Did you have a coffee yet?
- Jason McCord: I had a cup of the General's. Did you ever try drinking out of an alkaline mud pool?
- Ann Williams: No, here, have some of this.
- Jason McCord: Smells good. Oh, lady editor, you make a beautiful pot of coffee.
- Ann Williams: There are some that think I'm kinda bright, and kinda pretty.
- Jason McCord: Not me, I just love your coffee.
- [the flirting ceases and they kiss]
- General Joshua McCord: I promised to introduce her to 26 of my closest friends.
- Ann Williams: [to Jason] Come on in, you can talk to me.
- Sheriff: [At the premises of McCord & McCord Survey Engineers] The best place for her is in jail.
- Ann Williams: She can stay with me. I'd be glad to have her.
- Kellie: Don't do me no favours! I don't want nothin'! From any of ya!
- Ann Williams: It takes a woman to understand another woman.
- Sheriff: All right, all right! You're just as bad as she is. I better get on and earn my pay. Thanks for the coffee.
- Ann Williams: You forgot this.
- Sheriff: Oh, that's a dress. For the girl.
- Ann Williams: Oh.
- Sheriff: Well, look, I figured if we couldn't change her on the inside, at least we can improve the outside.
