Lizzy: [as she's flying to London] Hello Mrs. Perkins. Goodbye Mrs. Perkins.::Mrs. Perkins: Goodbye, dear. Fly back soon.::[Slight pause. Mrs. Perkins gasps, then faints]

Dr. Griffiths: [as Lizzy is hovering] I - I don't understand.::Lizzy: You don't have to understand. You just have to believe.

Dr. Griffiths: [Lizzy has unintentionally trashed her room after her first flying attempt] Look at this room! It looks like a cyclone hit it!::Lizzy: It's not that bad.::Dr. Griffiths: Not that bad? Your books are all over the floor, your toys are everywhere, and you've torn your curtains! [looks up] What? HOW did you get FOOTPRINTS on the CEILING? [exasperatedly] This is simply too much. A temper tantrum of this magnitude is unacceptable.::Lizzy: But I wasn't having a tantrum!::Dr. Griffiths: Then how did this happen? And the TRUTH this time.::Lizzy: [nervously] If I tell you the truth... [sighs] you still wouldn't believe me!::Dr. Griffiths: [sternly] Elizabeth, the truth.::Lizzy: ...I was flying!

It's the truth!::Dr. Griffiths: You have a real fairy, living in your room.::Lizzy: Yes! And I can prove it. [picks up the fairy field journal she and Tinker Bell made and holds it out for her father] Just look at the research we did.::Dr. Griffiths: [takes the field journal and flips through a few pages] Oh, Elizabeth, *this* is what you've been doing? [closes the journal] Field journals are to be filled with FACT, not fairy tales!::Lizzy: [desperately] But Father, these ARE facts!::Dr. Griffiths: I just don't understand this foolishness, Lizzy. You have such talent. Why would you waste it this way?::Lizzy: [visibly hurt and shocked by her father's words] Why can't you just... [sighs] *believe* me?::Dr. Griffiths: I believe in what is real. And it's about time *you* started doing the same. [goes to her wall of fairy art and starts tearing it down]::Lizzy: [fighting back tears] Father, wait!::Dr. Griffiths: I know this is difficult for you to understand. But... this... is all make-believe! [throws some of Lizzy's pictures into the trash]::Lizzy: No! They're real!::Dr. Griffiths: Elizabeth! This discussion is over! [throws away the fairy field journal]

Lizzy: I had no idea fairies were responsible for changing the seasons. I thought it had something to do with the earth's axis as it rotated around the sun.::Tinker Bell: That's what we wanted you to think.

In order to clear his name, he seeks out three extreme characters: Samuel is your average street rat who fancies himself an aristocrat, and has been looking to get himself a nickname for months. After watching a British heist film, he models himself after the characters in it, and tries to establish himself as a legitimate criminal. A run in with the mob leaves him with the nickname he's been dreaming about, and all of organized crime out to get him. Anne and Andy are twins with a dark childhood that has left them emotionally scarred and seeking revenge on their father. When a feud with the mob becomes more than they can handle, and they discover that a certain judge is gunning for their heads, they join John and Samuel, and the group sets their plans in motion.

Quotes:

Patrick Kenzie: Cheese, if you ever disrespect her again like that, I'm gonna pull your fuckin' card, okay? So you're saying you didn't do it, fine. We'll take your money, and we'll be on our way. When it turns out you're lying, I'm gonna spend every nickel of that money to fuck you up. I'm gonna bribe cops to go after you, I'm gonna pay guys to go after your weak fuckin' crew, and I'm gonna tell all the guys I know that you're a C.I. and a rat, and I know a lot of people. And after that, you're gonna wish you listened to me, 'cause your shitty pool hall crime syndicate headquarters is gonna get raided, and your doped-up bitches are gonna get sent back to Laos, and this fuckin' retard right here is gonna be testifying against you for a reduced sentence, while you're gettin' cornholed in your cell by a gang of crackers. 'Cause from what I've heard, the guys that get sent up Concord for killing kids, life's a motherfucker.::Cheese: [points gun at Kenzie] You come 'round here again, and I'm gonna get discourteous on your ass.

[from trailer]::Patrick Kenzie: He lied to me. Now I can't think of one reason big enough for him to lie about that's small enough not to matter.

[last lines]::Patrick Kenzie: [referring to her doll] Is that Mirabelle?::Amanda McCready: Annabelle.

Angie Gennaro: So you're bringing the FBI into this?::Detective Remy Bressant: That's the worst thing we could do.::Angie Gennaro: Why is that?::Detective Remy Bressant: Because I don't want to see Cheese kill Amanda after he opens a bag full of newspapers.::Angie Gennaro: It's kidnapping.::Detective Remy Bressant: I don't see a note. Do you see a note?::Nick Poole: Nope. No note.::Detective Remy Bressant: We're investigating a missing children's case here. Kidnapping has nothing to do with it. The fastest way to get Amanda home is go to Cheese, swap the money for her, and walk away. Plain and simple.::Helene McCready: [to Patrick] Do you know Cheese?::Patrick Kenzie: I knew his brother better - Jude. He was a sweet kid. Cheese went another way.::Helene McCready: He wouldn't hurt her, right?::Nick Poole: [sarcastically] Ask Ray.::Patrick Kenzie: All right, listen. All he cares about is his money. If he gets it back, he's not going to hurt her. Maybe.::Detective Remy Bressant: Just keep your mouths shut, okay? We'll get her back. It'll be fine.::Helene McCready: You're going to talk to him?::Detective Remy Bressant: Yeah, that's the idea.::Helene McCready: Well tell him I'm sorry, all right? I mean, he knows me. Just tell him I apologize.::Nick Poole: [sarcastically] Yeah, I'm sure that'll fix everything.

Detective Remy Bressant: Kids forgive, they don't judge, they turn the other cheek, and what do they get for it?

Detective Remy Bressant: I planted evidence on a guy once, back in '95. We were paying $100 an eight-ball to snitches. We got a call from our pal, Ray Likanski. He couldn't find enough guys to rat out. Anyway, he tells us there's a guy pumping up in an apartment up in Columbia Point. We go in, me and Nicky. Fifteen years ago, when Nicky went in, it was no joke. So it's a... it's a stash house, right? The old lady's beat to shit, the husband's mean, cracked out, trying to give us trouble, Nicky lays him down. We're doing an inventory, but it looks like we messed up because there's no dope in the house, and I go in the back room. Now, this place was a shithole, mind you? Rats, roaches, all over the place. But the kid's room, in the back, was spotless. No, I mean, he swept it, mopped it; it was immaculate. The little boy's sitting on the bed, holding onto his playstation for dear life. There's no expression on his face, tears streaming down. He wants to tell me he just learned his multiplication tables.::Patrick Kenzie: Christ.::Detective Remy Bressant: I mean, the father's got him in this crack den, subsisting on twinkies and ass-whippings, and this little boy just wants someone to tell him that he's doing a good job. You're worried what's Catholic? I mean, kids forgive. Kids don't judge. Kids turn the other cheek. What do they get for it? So I went back out there, I put an ounce of heroin on the living room floor, and I sent the father on a ride, seven to life.::Patrick Kenzie: That's was the right thing?::Detective Remy Bressant: [yelling] Fucking A! You gotta take a side. You molest a child, you beat a child, you're not on my side. If you see me coming, you better run, because I am gonna lay you the fuck down! Easy.::Patrick Kenzie: Don't feel easy.::Detective Remy Bressant: Is the kid better off without his father? Yeah. But okay, I mean, could be out there right now pumping with a gun in his waistband. It's a war, man. Are we winning? No.

[first lines]::Patrick Kenzie: I always believed it was the things you don't choose that makes you who you are. Your city, your neighborhood, your family. People here take pride in these things, like it was something they'd accomplished. The bodies around their souls, the cities wrapped around those. I lived on this block my whole life; most of these people have. When your job is to find people who are missing, it helps to know where they started. I find the people who started in the cracks and then fell through. This city can be hard. When I was young, I asked my priest how you could get to heaven and still protect yourself from all the evil in the world. He told me what God said to His children. "You are sheep among wolves. Be wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves."

Helene McCready: I feel like 9/11 now.

Detective Remy Bressant: If you see me comin' you better run cause I'm gonna lay you the fuck down!

Patrick Kenzie: What makes you think Ray hasn't spent all the money?::Helene McCready: Nigga please, I hid it.

Bill Babowsky: [into the phone] Hey, asshole! This is the ultimate "fuck you"! I just poked your wife!::Ernest Tilley: [into the phone] What are you talking about?::Bill Babowsky: Yeah, she's in my bed right now with a very big smile on her face.::Ernest Tilley: Well, that's just fine by me. She's a pain in the ass! An albatross around my neck! You're welcome to her. Keep her, and may you both rot in Hell! [hangs up]

Bill Babowsky: Are you a Lunatic? Are you tellin' me that you didn't see me comin' out of this lot? There's a red light there for cryin' out loud! You're supposed to stop!

Sam: 'Bonanza' is not an accurate depiction of the west.

Sam: You notice Little Joe never says "Hey Pa, I'm gonna go into town to get a piece of ass"?

Nora Tilley: If we went on a picnic it would be fun.::Ernest Tilley: I don't understand a picnic. We go someplace, we put a thing on the ground and eat.::Nora Tilley: Yeah, it's nice to do that.::Ernest Tilley: Why? I don't get it. It's better sittin' in front of the TV.::Nora Tilley: I happen to think there's somethin' nice about a picnic. It's fun.::Ernest Tilley: What's fun about it? Ants get in the food - there's bees. I don't get it. You have to drive - it takes you maybe an hour to get there. And then whataya do? You sit on the grass and eat. Why is that fun?

Sam: You know when I saw 'Bonanza' the other day, something occurred to me.::Ernest Tilley: Eh?::Sam: Ya got these four guys living on the Ponderosa and ya never hear them say anything about wanting to get laid.::Ernest Tilley: Huh.::Sam: I mean ya never hear Hoss say to Little Joe, "I had such a hard-on when I woke up this morning."::Ernest Tilley: No, no, no...::Sam: They don't talk about broads - nothing. Ya never hear Little Joe say, "Hey, Hoss, I went to Virginia City and I saw a girl with the greatest ass I've ever seen in my life." They just walk around the Ponderosa: "Yes, Pa, where's Little Joe?" Nothin' about broads. I don't think I'm being too picky. But, if at least once, they talked about getting horny. I don't care if you live on the Ponderosa or right here in Baltimore, guys talk about getting laid. I'm beginning to think that show doesn't have too much realism.

Sam: [Sam and Tilley go out to bar to celebrate a sale that Tilley has made to break a long dry spell] You know, Tilley, I'm beginning to believe in God.::Ernest Tilley: Yeah me too!::Sam: No, you don't know what I mean. I'm beginning to think about God more.::Ernest Tilley: What, you were never one of those atheists, were you?::Sam: No, I'm not sayin' that. It's just that I'm beginning to give God more thought.::Ernest Tilley: What, did you have some kind of religious experience or something.::Sam: Well, yeah, the other day I took the wife to lunch, we went and has some smorgasboard, and it just kinda happened.::Ernest Tilley: [Gags for a second at this] At the smorg... you found God at the smorgasboard?::Sam: Well, yeah, I'm looking at all this food, I see all these vegetables, and I think, all these things came outta the ground. I see tomatoes, outta the ground, carrots, outta the ground, radishes outta the ground. And I think, all of these things come outta the ground. And I'm just talkin' about the vegetables, I haven't gotten to the fruits yet. And I think, how can that be? How can all these things come outta the ground? With all these things comin' outta the ground, there must be a God.

Bill Babowsky: I'm gonna get this guy. Just for the fun of it!

Ernest Tilley: If Mr. Merengue wants to play, we'll play!
