Gladys Presley: "I Hate Elvis". Colonel Tom Parker: Yes. "I Hate Elvis". In my way of thinking, "I Love Elvis," that's an easy sell. Those who hate your son will do so whether we profit from it or not. [to Elvis] After all, what is hate worth if it's free? Vernon Presley: Oh, yeah. I get it.

Elvis Presley: I ain't wearin' no tails. I just... gotta lay off the moves, is all. Colonel says if I don't, they're gonna put me in jail. B.B. King: [chuckles] Come on, man. They're not gonna put you in jail. They might put me in jail for walkin' across the street, but you a famous white boy. Too many people making too much money off you to put you in jail. Elvis Presley: You think so? B.B. King: I know so. The Colonel's a smart man. There's gotta be another reason.

Colonel Tom Parker: [gently] Your daddy is doing the best he knows how, but he is overwhelmed. He needs your help. Elvis Presley: [crying] I can't go out there. I just wanna stay here forever. Colonel Tom Parker: Oh, my boy. No one could never replace her. But you listen to me. From this moment on, everything she would have done, I will carry out, in her name. When you are overseas, I will stay here at home. And I will work and I will worry. Trust me. Now you go and you stand by your papa. You comfort him. [helps Elvis to his feet] You comfort him. Comfort your friends and your family and even your fans. Hmm? Because if you don't do that, all that your mama has sacrificed for you will be for nothing. Elvis Presley: No matter what happens, you stay with me through thick and thin, okay? You're like a... like a father to me.

Elvis Presley: Christmas special. Is this the best we can do, Admiral? Colonel Tom Parker: Well, we took the Hollywood phonies for every nickel they had and now it is time to pack up our tents and move on to even greener pastures. We've seen "Elvis the Rebel". We've seen "Elvis the Movie Star". Now we will see "Elvis the Family Entertainer". Jerry Schilling: [sarcastically] And appliance salesman. Elvis Presley: [turning to Jerry] What did you say? [walks over angrily] Listen, Jerry, I don't need you to question me about how I support my family and every goddamn person here! You understand me? If you don't like it, you can go back to Memphis. [entering his trailer] Laugh it up, assholes.
