[Nathan starts to laugh at Tory being scared of the house]
Tory : What's so funny?
Nathan Murphy : Well, I just think it's funny the way girls are always afraid of spiders and stuff.
Tory : Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, wait a minute. Did I misplace my 1950's calendar, here? 'Girls'? Listen, Bud, okay? This is the 90's. Women are treated equal.
Nathan Murphy : Well, first off, my name isn't Bud, it's Nathan. And I don't know many guys that are afraid of houses.
Tory : [Tory pulls her hair back] Oh, is that so?
Nathan Murphy : Yeah.
Tory : Well, you know what? Neither am I.
[Nathan laughs]

[Nathan and Tory talk about the O'Grady's]
Nathan Murphy : The O'Grady's collected a lot of junk.
Tory : The O'Grady's?
Nathan Murphy : Yeah, Dan O'Grady. He used to own this place. He was really a... a weird, and strange guy, you know?
Tory : Oh. You mean weird and strange like guys who drive dented pickup trucks and paint houses for a living?

[Tory looks at the mess of shoes in the kitchen]
Tory : This is crazy, what the hell's going on here?
Nathan Murphy : Well, it could've been a bear. They sometimes come down the hills looking for food.
Tory : Great. My dad had to bring food into this place.
Ozzie : You know what? That Leprechaun, he tried to shine my shoes. He said he was a shoemaker.
Tory : Look. You guys can sit around here and theorize, Bear or no bear, but I am getting out of here. A matter of fact, I'm walking out that door, and I'm not coming back.
[Tory walks out, as Ozzie and Nathan look at each other, when Tory walks back in the house within five seconds]
Tory : A little too dark out there.

[Tory bumps into Nathan carrying a can of paint]
Tory : Who are you?
Nathan Murphy : Uh, I was a guy carrying some paint thinner.
Tory : [Tory pulls out some cash from her hand bag] Oh, okay. Here. Does that cover it?
Nathan Murphy : Wait. Hold on a second. You knock over my paint thinner and you offer me $20
Tory : [Tori pulls out some more cash] Okay. Okay. How about that? Will that do it?
Nathan Murphy : Uh, no. Maybe if you said you were sorry, you know, it might.
Tory : [Tory stares at Nathan before hurrying to leave] Okay here. Keep the change.

[Tory and Nathan find Ozzie covered in blue paint]
Ozzie : [Ozzie tries taking blue paint out of his mouth] Oh, no!
Alex : [Alex laughs to himself] As fashion statements go, blue is not your best color.
Ozzie : Alex, I asked you to hold that ladder steady. Now look what happened!
Nathan Murphy : I'm not even going to ask what happened, really.
Tory : There's a bathroom off the kitchen in there. At least, it looked a little like a bathroom.
Ozzie : [Ozzie looks back at Alex] I don't like blue.

[Ozzie tells the others that he found a Leprechaun in the basement]
Ozzie : Ah! There's a Leprechaun in the basement! Oh, there's a Leprechaun in the basement!
Nathan Murphy : Hold on. What's going on?
Ozzie : He come out of a box. He had these long, real skinny fingers. He wasn't nice like lucky charms or anything. And then he ate a bug!
Alex : A Leprechaun? Let's inject a little reality in here, please.
Ozzie : I saw him. I really did see him. He even tried to polish my shoes.
Alex : Then where's your pot of gold?
Ozzie : That's what he said he wants. He said he wanted his pot of gold!

[Nathan volunteers to go in the basement to look for the Leprechaun Ozzie found]
Nathan Murphy : [Nathan picks up a stick] Hey... okay? Just in case?
Tory : I better go with you. Just in case.
Ozzie : Uh, N-Nathan... Nathan... I don't think that stick's gonna be big enough. W-wait. Wait for me, I'm coming. Just in case.

[Ozzie describes the Leprechaun to Nathan and the group]
Nathan Murphy : Well, I don't see anything, Ozzie.
Ozzie : This guy... was real. I mean, he had buckles on his shoes and he had them real horrible teeth, and they were all rotten and everything, and, uh, oh... I-I know he never does brush them.
[Tory stares to Nathan as the group hears a crash of items in the corner of the basement]
Ozzie : Th-that's him. He's going to kill every one of us, and I'm first.

[Ozzie see's the rainbow in the sky]
Ozzie : [Ozzie points up] Hey. Hey, look up in the sky!
Alex : So what, Ozzie? It's just a rainbow.
Ozzie : It's a magic rainbow. Leprechauns and rainbows - It's a sign.
Nathan Murphy : Yeah. Yeah, it's a sign all right. It's time to get back to painting.
Ozzie : No, we got to go see what's at the end.
Alex : Ozzie, you're embarrassing me.
Ozzie : Come on, come with me. We got to get to the end of the rainbow. There's always a pot of gold.

[Tory falls after something touches her leg from under the truck]
Tory : [Nathan comes to check on Tory] I thought that was you rubbing my leg.
Nathan Murphy : And you let me?
Tory : That's not the point. Something was rubbing my leg, like caressing it. And it-it ran off over there.
J.D. Reding : It's probably just an old possum, honey.
Tory : No, dad. That was not an animal. I know what it feels like when a man caresses my leg.
J.D. Reding : You do?

[Tory and Nathan talk at the diner]
Nathan Murphy : You should have some meat loaf. I've got plenty, really.
Tory : Oh, no. No. Do you know what that is?
Nathan Murphy : [Tory points to his plate] Yeah, it's meat loaf.
Tory : No. That's cut-up dead cow. Okay, and that's if you're lucky in this place. See, I don't eat meat and I don't kill living things. I feel very strongly about that.
Nathan Murphy : Really?
Tory : Really.
Tory : [Nathan reaches under the dining table to pull off Tory's tennis shoe] What are you... Nathan, what are you doing?
Nathan Murphy : Cut-up dead cow - That's what your shoe is, you know?
Tory : Give me my shoe.
Tory : [Nathan holds the shoe in front of him staring to see if he can see a cow in it] Nathan, give me my shoe back!

[Nathan talks to Tory about what bedrooms to sleep in]
Nathan Murphy : Um. I'm going to go check out the bedrooms and find out where we're going to stay tonight.
Tory : Oh, great. While you do that, I'm going to find my purse and check into a hotel.

[Nathan investigates where the sound of a mysterious bell is coming from]
Nathan Murphy : It sounds like it's coming from the kitchen.
[Nathan walks into the kitchen, suddenly turning around to see the three others standing behind him]
Tory : We're, like, really scared.

[Tory takes the shotgun from Nathan to go and get the gold]
Nathan Murphy : Okay, look, take this gun with you, okay? Just cock it, aim it, pull the trigger. You ever work one of those things before?
Tory : [Tory cocks the shotgun] Nope.
Ozzie : [Tory leaves to go outside, as Ozzie mumbles] Watch out for those teeth.
