Quotes11

  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [Everyone is running outside to find that Delaney is hanging onto the rope that rings the church bell, which because of his hanging onto it, continues to ring] Delaney, what are you doing up there? You're supposed to be painting.
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: Rose, now don't start!
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Don't you yell at me!
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: Don't jump, Mr. Rafferty! You've got lots to live for!
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: You think I don't know that?
  • Marvin Fogleman, T-Man: [calling over the radio from the room] Phantom Fox.
  • Claire: Uh, Max and I are watching Freddie Uh Two Fingers' Snooker Parlor, and uh I... expect to be murdered any minute. If that should happen, would somebody please contact Alfredo? He does my hair.
  • Marvin Fogleman, T-Man: Ten-four.
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: [over the radio] Five dames ain't never gonna find no bank. We'll be lucky if they don't get us all killed! If you want me honest opinion, it's a wild duck chase.
  • Marvin Fogleman, T-Man: Who...
  • [grabbing the radio phone and turning to Reverend Hill]
  • Marvin Fogleman, T-Man: who is that?
  • Rev. Michael Hill: [grabs radio phone] Sounds like Delaney Rafferty. Eh, Blarney Stone... the whole idea is that they'd be less suspicious with women following them.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: I know, I know but I can't drive, Reverend. And you'll never recognize Delaney.
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: [grabs radio phone from Rose. Delaney is dressed up as a woman] Don't use my name, I told ya. If it got out what I was doing, I'd be spending the night in the river that's what! Them guys play for keeps!
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: If it keeps me from cleaning the oven, I'm game.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Did you have to wear that? We look like the Bobbsey Twins.
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: [spotting Cleo in the same outfit as them] Or triplets.
  • [at the gambling counter, Mrs. Rose Rafferty, Vicki Sims, and Cleo Jackson are all there disguised]
  • Big Chin, the Food Stand Operator: What'll it be?
  • All Girls: Coffee.
  • Big Chin, the Food Stand Operator: Figures!
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [gambling] And, a fiver on 2-6-8. My horoscope says that even numbers are going to be very lucky for me today.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Delaney told me it was a blank tape...
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: Mrs. Rafferty, we're fortunate we're not dead. After all, we don't even look like the Andrews Sisters.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [pointing to the inside of her trench coat] I got a tape recorder.
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: Is it on?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: No.
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: Why don't you put it on, so that it'll be running when we make the bet.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Good idea.
  • [reaches in and try to turn the "record" button on, but accidentally pushes a different one, which makes it give off a rewinding sound, which brings attention to the Food-Stand Operator]
  • Mrs. Vicki Sims: Not that way. That's reverse.
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: Would you happen to have a little of that Sacramento wine on the premises, Reverend?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [slaps Delaney on the shoulder] That's sacramental. Watch your hands! Do you want to get paint all over the Reverend's chair? Haven't you done enough for one day? Please, let's go home and get you cleaned up!
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: Rosie, you're straining me patience!
  • Rev. Michael Hill: Where is this bookie?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: I don't know which one he used.
  • Rev. Michael Hill: There's more than one?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Lots. Carlucci's Bakery, the pet store on Friar, or the orthopedic shoe store. But I'll lay you 8-to-1 he used Harry the Hat.
  • Rev. Michael Hill: Harry the Hat?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Right.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [running towards Reverand Hill] Reverend, what are you gonna do?
  • Rev. Michael Hill: Stop that bet!
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Ohh?
  • Rev. Michael Hill: We'll take the bike. It's faster.
  • [grabs a helmet and gives it to Rose]
  • Rev. Michael Hill: Here, put that on.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [putting helmet on] Yes, sir!
  • Rev. Michael Hill: [getting on motorcycle] Get on, Mrs. Rafferty.
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: All right, I'm getting on.
  • [gets on motorcycle]
  • Rev. Michael Hill: [starts the engine] You all set?
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: [with a worried look on her face] I think so.
  • Rev. Michael Hill: [Anne is listening to the conversation while at her desk] Blarney Stone, where is he? Do you copy? Blarney Stone, have you spotted them?
  • [Anne knocks on door and walks in]
  • Rev. Michael Hill: Where are you?
  • Mr. Delaney Rafferty: Don't ask!
  • [the Rafferty's car is facing a train, bumper to bumper, on a track. The train engineer blows the train's horn]
  • Train Engineer: Get off the track!
  • Mrs. Rose Rafferty: Don't yell at me! Who do you think you are?
