Quotes 

  • Patrick 'Patsy' Goldberg : Let's talk to her...

    [the gang chats up Carol] 

    Patrick 'Patsy' Goldberg : So you left Detroit, huh?

    Peggy : Her and her husband just come in on weekends.

    Philip 'Cockeye' Stein : Yeah. Beats the seashore.

    Peggy : She takes on guys while her hubby watches through the peephole.

    Philip 'Cockeye' Stein : Beats the hell out of the movies!

    Patrick 'Patsy' Goldberg : I wonder what that jerk is up to in his cubbyhole?

    Noodles : He must be wondering "Where is his fucking wife?"

  • [Peggy introduces the gang to Carol] 

    Peggy : You know these guys?

    Carol : [looking at their faces]  No, I don't think so. No. No, I'd remember a bunch of good-lookers like these.

    [the gang ties bandanas around their faces] 

    Carol : Oh... well, how could I forget? There was... there was only one of you I got to know personally, though.

    Max : Which one? Let's see how good a memory you've got for faces.

    [They unbotton their flies, and a delighted Carol takes a long look at the four men in front of her] 

    Carol : [to Max]  You!

    Max : No, him.

    [gestures to Max] 

    Noodles : We've been hanging out so long we're starting to look alike.

    Max : Hanging out...

    Carol : Charmed. You can call me Carol. We've already met. Pleasure.

    Max : The pleasure... is all mine.

    [kisses Carol] 

  • Peggy : Come on, let's see if you can guess who it is...

    Noodles : Charlotte russe, with a little too much whipped cream... Peggy.

    Peggy : Hey, you watch it, now! And my prices, they've gone up. I work in a high-class joint now, and I get paid by the pound.

    Patrick 'Patsy' Goldberg : My Peggy, she's worth every penny of it too, my red-hot mama!
