Quotes:

Charlie Arglist: As Wichita falls... so falls Wichita Falls.

Vic: He actually threatened to shoot Gladys if I did't tell him where the money was. But I think he was counting on a level of commitment and affection between her and me that just simply wasn't there.

Vic: Don't you want to know where the money is?

Vic: Don't be so worried. The hard part's done already. Everything worked just like you said it would.::Charlie Arglist: Yeah. I guess.::Vic: Just act normal for a few hours and we're home free. OK?::Charlie Arglist: OK.::Vic: OK.::Charlie Arglist: Uh, you wanna take the money and not me?::Vic: You wanna take the money?::Charlie Arglist: No, I-I-I don't know. I was just...::Vic: Well, if you wanna take the money... I mean, if you think you could do a better job at guarding two-million dollars...::Charlie Arglist: No, no, no. It should be you. It should be you. It's just that we didn't discuss that.::Vic: Are we through discussing it? Or is there more to say on the subject?::Charlie Arglist: No. We're done.::Vic: Cool. OK. Shut the door.::Charlie Arglist: OK.::Vic: And Charlie? Act normal.::Charlie Arglist: Yeah.

Vic: Well? How'd it go?::Charlie Arglist: Good. Went good.::Vic: How much?::Charlie Arglist: A lot.::Vic: Am I gonna have to slap the shit outta you? How much?::Charlie Arglist: Vic, it's a great, big, fuckin' pile of money: two-million - one-hundred - forty-seven-thousand dollars and change. My God, we're actually doing this.::Vic: No, we're not doing it. It's already done.

Pete Van Heuten: [standing outside his home where his wife's family is waiting to have Christmas dinner] That's my chair in there. You wanna know the truth? I can't fill it.::Charlie Arglist: Neither could I, if it makes you feel any better.::Pete Van Heuten: Listen, Charlie. Before we go in, there's something I have to tell you. It's been on my conscience, and you can punch me if you want to.::Charlie Arglist: I don't think I'm gonna want to.::Pete Van Heuten: Back when you and Sarabeth were still married, that last year... she and I were fucking.::Charlie Arglist: [not surprised] No kidding?::Pete Van Heuten: Like minks. Everywhere. Kitchen table, your bed, garage.::Charlie Arglist: Wow.::Pete Van Heuten: Jesus, Charlie, we were friends! It doesn't make you angry?::Charlie Arglist: Actually, it makes me curious. It makes me wonder who she's fucking now.

Renata: [answers phone] Hello?::Charlie Arglist: Renata?::Renata: Charlie.::Charlie Arglist: Listen. You were right. Vic and I have been skimming.::Renata: Well, duh!::Charlie Arglist: I think Roy Gelles must have found out, and I think he might have killed Vic.::Renata: That's terrible!::Charlie Arglist: So I was thinking it might be best if I left town, and I was wondering if you wanted to come with me.::Renata: You have the money?::Charlie Arglist: What? Which?::Renata: The money we're talking about. That you and Vic have been skimming. Try to keep up, OK?::Charlie Arglist: No. Vic had it.::Renata: So, your idea is that we should run away together and be poor?::Charlie Arglist: I thought I'd give it a shot.

Vic: Pay no attention to the man in the trunk.

Pete Van Heuten: [waking up in back of Charlie's car] Ugh... Where are we?::Charlie Arglist: We're in heaven, Pete.::Pete Van Heuten: Oh... They got pancakes?::Charlie Arglist: They got everything.::Pete Van Heuten: Good.
