Quotes 

• Chris Leary : [nervously approaches Roy who slaps a band on his wrist as he enters the doorway]  What's this?

  Roy : "The candidate shall be released from all that binds him or her to the physical wordd"; that's what this bracelet does... Now, why don't you wait outside and stop through when your number's called?

  Chris Leary : Step through what? Look, I better go home.

  Roy : You *are* going home. You're going home to the next life.

  Chris Leary : "Next life"? But I'm not done with *this* life yet!

  Roy : Oh, really? Now where did you hear about us?

  Chris Leary : On the radio, in the hearse.

  Roy : [picks up a list]  Hm. Ahhh, hearse, hearse, hearse, hearse, hearse... here, here! "Carpenter, Daniel James." Buried this afternoon. Uh - whoo! Missed that crossover point by a long shot. What's the matter, you stayed with the hearse too long, is that it? Well, that happens.

• Roy : Boy, if I had a dime for every time somebody tried to weasel out of death - it would actually do me no good at all, 'casue I'm dead. What do I need money for; I'm dead, what am I gonna do with it, buy gum?

  Chris Leary : But you're making a mistake!

  Roy : I - don't make mistakes... buddy-boy! When I was alive, I worked for the Department of Motor Vehicles!

• Jamie Leary : That's my brother; he's not dead!

  Roy : Really?

  Chris Leary : Yes. Finally.

  Roy : Ahh, I don't think so.

• Roy : Look, you take the bracelet off your wrist, put it on his wrist, we'll forget this whole thing ever happened.

  Chris Leary : [to Daniel Carpenter]  Aren't you afraid it'll be horrible?

  Roy : It's only horrible if you've led a bad life. If you led a good life, it's the best thing going.

• Chris Leary : [after The Gate has rejected Chris]  They rejected me. They-they said I wasn't dead.

  Roy : Uh-oh.

  Chris Leary : And they also said they wanted to have a word with you.

  Roy : Oh great! There goes my pension!

  Jamie Leary : Did you really go to the Other Side?

  Chris Leary : I guess. It all kind of happened fast.

  Roy : All right! Let's not make a federal case out of this! So I made a teensy-weensy little mistake and I was about to send an innocent young boy to his death. What? None of you ever did that before? Look, you take the bracelet off your wrist, put it on his wrist, we'll forget this whole thing ever happened.
