Quotes 

• Kate Hawthorne : [in a fantasy of Harry Vanderspeigle's]  I'm glad my husband and son are here with me in my home. Makes me fulfilled.

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : I am your husband. This cookie is delightful.

  Max Hawthorne : I'm here too. I'm a younger person.

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : Let me turn on the cooking stove. That's funny. All I hear is a hissing noise. I hope that smell in the air isn't propane gas.

  [lights a cigar, massive explosion] 

  Harry Vanderspeigle : [thinking]  Mmm! Explosion is a good option. It looks like an accident.

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : It's nice talking to someone who cares, you know? And I love that you're writing things down. Sam, he didn't really ever take notes.

  Harry Vanderspeigle : Well, no one cares more about people than I do.

  [his notepad is filled with doodles of other ideas for supposedly accidental deaths] 

• Sheriff Mike Thompson : We got a murder to solve. I got to make room over there for murder stuff.

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : Yeah, well. There' s no room for those boxes over here, so...

  Sheriff Mike Thompson : Well, the laws of physics would tend to disagree with you, since there they are.

• [Max had run away from the doctor's office because he saw Harry as he truly is. His parents are trying to get him to return to the doctor] 

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : OK, look, that's enough. I cannot hear about this alien stuff anymore.

  [to Kate] 

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : . Look, he can come to work with me and lie on the couch. If his throat doesn't feel better, I'll bring him back, OK?

  Max Hawthorne : Oh, now you want to die, too. Make that three coffins.

  [walks away] 

  Kate Hawthorne : I'm serious. If he keeps this up, we're getting rid of him.

  Mayor Ben Hawthorne : Sounds good.
