• [Dean & Billy see Joanna's mugshot on TV] 

  Dean Proffitt : That's her.

  Billy Pratt : Who?

  Dean Proffitt : THE BITCH!

  Billy Pratt : [Seeing Grant leaving the hospital on TV]  I can't believe he's skipping out on her.

  Dean Proffitt : Of course he's skipping out on her, it's his shot at freedom.

  Billy Pratt : Maybe you should go down to the hospital and see if you can get some of your money back?

  Dean Proffitt : Look, he's gone.

  Billy Pratt : Not him, her.

  Dean Proffitt : She doesn't even know who she is, you think she's gonna know who I am?

  [Dean turns around to walk away only to turn right back when he thinks of an idea] 

  Dean Proffitt : Billy, there is a God and he loves me!

  Billy Pratt : You're not gonna shave your head, are you?

  Dean Proffitt : No, I gotta go home and talk to my kids...

  Billy Pratt : [interrupts]  Dean, don't do this.

  Dean Proffitt : ...and I want you to take them shopping at the Salvation Army!

  Billy Pratt : Dean, it's illegal... Dean you're crazy, you know that!

• Billy Pratt : Annie, those are my underwear.

  Annie : Yours?

  Billy Pratt : I don't mean I wear 'em or anything. They belong to a girlfriend of mine.

  Annie : But what about Gertie?

  Billy Pratt : I strayed. See, I got lucky with this phone sex girl and I found one that takes personal checks; my truck doesn't have a backseat so I borrowed yours. Dean doesn't want you to tell Gertie so he's covering for me.

  Dean Proffitt : [comes up to them]  What's going on?

  Billy Pratt : I confess. The jig is up!

  Dean Proffitt : The jig IS up, Billy, I'm finally trying to tell her the truth.

  Billy Pratt : I just did. See, I didn't get the name Bad Billy Pratt for nothing. I'm sorry, Annie, I got horny, do you hate me?

  Annie : [smiles]  No, no

  [hugs him] 

  Annie : I'm glad you're Bad Billy Pratt!

• Dean Proffitt : Remember in high school how you faked our IDs? I need a fake bride.

  Billy Pratt : Come on, Dean. I'm busy!

  Dean Proffitt : [hands Billy a parcel envelope]  Not any more. She's goin' home.

  Billy Pratt : I'll do it, but if we get caught, it's your ass!

• Gertie : Hey Billy, who are you talking to?

  Billy Pratt : Nobody!

  Dean Proffitt : Who's that?

  Billy Pratt : No one!

  Gertie : Hey, is that Dean?

  [comes to trailer window] 

  Gertie : Hi, Dean! Why don't you come on in?

  Billy Pratt : Go back to bed, Gertie.

  Gertie : [annoyed]  Hey, if you're gonna treat me like that, I'm going home!

• Billy Pratt : How's it going with your debutante?

  Dean Proffitt : She's one lousy cook, I'll tell you that, but as long as I don't have to do it.

  Billy Pratt : How long are you gonna keep her?

  Dean Proffitt : Let's see, twelve bucks a day. I figure the little wifey-poo can work off what she owes me in little over a month.

• Dean Proffitt : I lost all of my tools.

  Billy Pratt : Don't worry, I'll loan you some tools. We'll get you some part time work.

  Dean Proffitt : I appreciate it Billy, but I need a steady job. Hey, what about that night time thing?

  Billy Pratt : I'm working on it. Soon, we'll get that miniature golf deal and we'll be in business.

  Dean Proffitt : If I can hang on that long.

• Annie : How could you go hunting on an important day like today?

  Billy Pratt : Easy, the pheasants don't play miniature golf!
