The Norwegians (2008)

Chi McBride: Emerson Cod

Quotes 

• Emerson Cod : Allow me to put this to you delicately. You see, men are dogs! They come, you know, sniffing around, barking up your tree, but if they don't see a kitty cat up in that tree, pretty soon they just stop barking.

• Emerson Cod : Oh look at that. A dumb idea just found a friend.

• Emerson Cod : Listen, we're all professionals, people. This doesn't have to get ugly.

  Nils Nilsen : Your shirt suggests otherwise.

• Vivian Charles : Mr. Cod, I'm here against my better judgment considering the callous braggadocio with which you previously gave me the heave-ho.

  Emerson Cod : Well, if I did do any ho-heavin' it was for your own good. There's a time for callous braggadocio and a time for sensitivity. To the Norwegians, that time is never.

  Vivian Charles : I suppose it's a holdover from their Viking ancestry. It would be difficult to rape and pillage with the subtlety of a humanist.

• Nils Nilsen : You and Dwight hobnobbed in the same circles!

  Emerson Cod : The hell I did. We didn't nob no hobs. And certainly not in no damn circle.
