Quotes:

Rock: Dr. Light that we're as close to human as he could possibly make us.::Roll: Yes. And?::Rock: Do you see yourself as real?::Roll: Meaning what? Real as in human? [Rock nods] As a matter of fact, I do.::Rock: Do you ever wish you were...::Roll: No.::Rock: Why not?::Roll: I'm fine with who I am.::Rock: And you don't ever question that?::Roll: Why?::Rock: Because today, when we walked around, I felt like I was one of them, but I know we're not and we never will be.::Roll: Maybe there's something to be said for being different. You said that maybe we were the only ones who could appreciate the beauty of the city. That might be true for other things, too. We are who we are. What more could we ask for?::Rock: I don't know. I just feel like I'm this useless machine with no real purpose. I want to do something important with my life. I want to be special.::Roll: You *are* special. To me and to Dr. Light. Don't get obsessed over it; be happy with who you are. I am.

Dr. Thomas Light: The news crew will be here soon.::Dr. Wily: It's about time you let a new crew in here so that the public can know of our superior technology and overwhelming brilliance.::Dr. Thomas Light: I don't do what I do just to gloat.::Dr. Wily: We deserve it.

Dr. Thomas Light: Robots should be used for the betterment of mankind. Any other use would be... [looks over at Dr. Wily]... unethical.

Dr. Thomas Light: All I want is for my robots to be accepted so that they can help people. And you should be thinking the same.::Dr. Wily: Your ideals are unrealistic. You say you want to help the world? You don't realize the power that this technology could give us.::Dr. Thomas Light: I don't want power. And you need to rethink your goals.

Elec Man: Who the hell do you think you are?::Rock: I'm Mega Man.

[Elec Man has knocked Mega Man down]::Elec Man: The battles you've had up to this point were just child's play. Now you get to face me: the cream of the crop, the best damn machine of the pack. I'm giving you a chance to get up. C'mon, get up! [kicks Mega Man, then grabs him and starts electrocuting him] "I'm Mega Man!" You've got to be kidding me. How the hell did you defeat four of us? [throws him to the ground and electrocutes him again] You're not even trying. Try to get up!

[Wily's robots have laid siege to the city]::Rock: I volunteer.::Dr. Thomas Light: Volunteer for what?::Rock: I volunteer to go and retrieve the 'bots.::Dr. Thomas Light: I can't allow that.::Rock: But look what's happening. Right now, I'm not...::Dr. Thomas Light: If anything happened to you, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.::Rock: What other choice do we have?::Dr. Thomas Light: You weren't created to fight.::Roll: Rock, we don't want to lose you.::Rock: You're not going to lose anyone. Dr. Light, you said yourself that you created me as close to human as possible. Well, real humans live their lives and choices every day and I choose to help by stopping the 'bots.

Rock: All this fighting and conflict... it makes me feel sick.::Roll: Then why do it?::Rock: Because I'm the only one who can.

[Proto Man has brought a damaged Mega Man back to Dr. Light's lab]::Dr. Thomas Light: You're not staying?::Blues: It's a big world. I've got lots to do out there.::Dr. Thomas Light: You know, your core, I could fix that for you if you...::Blues: [firmly] No.::Dr. Thomas Light: Don't you know that you could die?::Blues: I don't care. I'd rather die than lose my free will.::Dr. Thomas Light: You know, you've got to understand... I mean...::Blues: I don't want to be like Rock or Roll. I don't want to be a machine to be programmed to do what they do. Thank you, but no thank you.::Dr. Thomas Light: Just as long as you always know that the offer is here for you.::Blues: The greatest gift you gave me was my free will and I have no intention of giving that back.::Dr. Thomas Light: Well, I suppose your intentions are good.::Blues: My intentions are what I make of them. I know I'm not like Rock, but I'll always have his back. He's got a lot of heart... for a machine.

Dr. Albert Wily: [to Roll] I wasted the best years of my life working on crap like you. Genius like mine should be used, not ignored or hidden. All my life, I've been ignored and shunned and teased, but now I have the upper hand. [Roll started to cry] Oh, the little robot girl is crying. He must have given you that ability. I'm sure I would not have. In one hour, everything in a twenty mile radius will be leveled and everyone will die. Dr. Light, Mega Man... and then I will have the satisfaction of killing you. And then, all the world leaders will bow to my whim or millions will die. [laughs wickedly] You know, I never liked you. Your carefree attitude and all that nonsense. You have no purpose. You know why you were made? Because Dr. Light's wife died. Do you think he's the only one who's ever lost something or someone. Do you think he's the only one who knows pain? You know nothing of my life and what I've wasted!

Local physician Dr. Frank Irwin, a caring influence in the neighborhood, also takes an active interest in guiding the lad off the streets. Frank's son is Jimmy 'the Dream' Irwin, who is himself trying to make a boxing mark in American despite getting a little too old for the sport and nursing a broken hand. At Silvana's intercession, Jimmy begins training Abner at the local gym while beginning to fall for his sister. Just as things are looking good for Abner's chances, tragedy strikes, threatening to derail everyone's efforts to see him leave the ghetto.

Plot: Frankie Dunn has trained and managed some incredible fighters during a lifetime spent in the ring. The most important lesson he teaches his boxers is the one that rules life: above all, always protect yourself. In the wake of a painful estrangement from his daughter, Frankie has been unwilling to let himself get close to anyone for a very long time. His only friend, Scrap, an ex-boxer who looks after Frankie's gym, knows that beneath his gruff exterior is a man who has been seeking, for the past 25 years, the forgiveness that somehow continues to elude him. Then Maggie Fitzgerald walks into his gym...

Quotes:

Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: If there's magic in boxing, it's the magic of fighting battles beyond endurance, beyond cracked ribs, ruptured kidneys and detached retinas. It's the magic of risking everything for a dream that nobody sees but you.

Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: To make a fighter you gotta strip them down to bare wood: you can't just tell 'em to forget everything you know if you gotta make 'em forget even their bones... make 'em so tired they only listen to you, only hear your voice, only do what you say and nothing else... show 'em how to keep their balance and take it away from the other guy... how to generate momentum off their right toe and how to flex your knees when you fire a jab... how to fight backin' up so that the other guy doesn't want to come after you. Then you gotta show 'em all over again. Over and over and over... till they think they're born that way.

Frankie Dunn: You forgot the rule. Now, what is the rule?::Maggie Fitzgerald: Keep my left up?::Frankie Dunn: Is to protect yourself at all times. Now, what is the rule?::Maggie Fitzgerald: Protect myself at all times.::Frankie Dunn: Good. Good.

Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: All fighters are pig-headed some way or another: some part of them always thinks they know better than you about something. Truth is: even if they're wrong, even if that one thing is going to be the ruin of them, if you can beat that last bit out of them... they ain't fighters at all.

Maggie Fitzgerald: You're gonna leave me again?::Frankie Dunn: Never.

Frankie Dunn: I think someone should count to 10.

Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: [after hitting someone] 110. Get a job, punk.

Maggie Fitzgerald: Momma, you take Mardell and JD and get home 'fore I tell that lawyer there that you were so worried about your welfare you never signed those house papers like you were supposed to. So anytime I feel like it I can sell that house from under your fat, lazy, hillbilly ass. And if you ever come back, that's exactly what I'll do.

Maggie Fitzgerald: I saw your last fight, Shawrelle. Spent so much time face down I thought the canvas had titties.

Father Horvak: What's confusing you this week?::Frankie Dunn: Oh, it's the same old "one God-three God" thing.::Father Horvak: Frankie, most people figure out by kindergarten it's about faith.::Frankie Dunn: Is it sort of like Snap Crackle and Pop, all rolled into one big box?::Father Horvak: You're standing outside my church, comparing God to Rice Krispies?
