You been dicking me around since we started this turd hunt! The only thing you're good for is GAMES. So far, what I got out of you is nothing! Reggie: Yeah.

Haden: Now I saw the report on that little piece of shit. If he spends one legal day in his life, it'll be a record! And this is it for you! Suspension, review board! You've had it!

Reggie: Now Jack, the both of us know that I'm gonna be an honest man from now on. Right? Jack: Good. Reggie: But if I did decide to be a thief, what makes you think you can catch me? Jack: [pause] Can I have my lighter back, Reggie?
