Quotes 

• Cass Lake : We're six floors up. No-one can see you.

  Off-screen voice : Hey, Cass. Who's your new friend?

• Cass Lake : You see, I think she's my sister.

  Ryan Harrison : Sister?

  Cass Lake : It's like a brother, only you do each other's hair.

• Cass Lake : Cass Lake.

  Ryan Harrison : No, Ryan Harrison. You're mixing me up with some woman.

• Cass Lake : I'm your sister. Lauren's our mother.

  Lauren : I'm your mother's identical twin, born ten years apart but identical. I killed your mother. Penis envy. She was a hermaphrodite.

  Cass Lake : Mom was my mother *and* my father?

  Lauren : Sean's adopted. I dated your real father but chose the life of a freedom fighter.

• Ryan Harrison : Sit down, Pancakes. Of all the women in all the world, you had to walk into mine.

  Cass Lake : I'm sure if we just talk all night, we can work this out.

  Ryan Harrison : Sure, Slappy. Let's pull out that wad of cotton and get right to the aspirin. You hired a hit man. You wanted Hibbing dead. I saw the two of you arguing. And you were sizzling like a wiener on a hibachi.

• Cass Lake : Listen to me. I was abandoned as a child. I never knew my mother, I never knew my father, I never knew my dog...

  Ryan Harrison : Yeah, pretty words, Baby Crackers. Your Popeil Pasta Maker is spewing out fettuccini full of lies.

• [after a kiss] 

  Ryan Harrison : Damn you! Damn you for making me fall in love with you! I can't let you get mixed up in this.

  Cass Lake : I want to get mixed up in it.

  Ryan Harrison : I can't do it to you.

  Cass Lake : I want you to do it to me.

  Ryan Harrison : I'm a hunted man. Every time I think that I'm out, they pull me back in.

  Cass Lake : Hunt *me*! Pull *me*! Ryan, you can't do this on your own.

  Ryan Harrison : I have to. Now, listen. I'm going out that door and where I'm going, you can't follow me. And I'm not trying to be noble. But baby, out there it's a hill of beans. Here's looking at you, kid. You're the stuff dreams are made of.

  [Harrison staggers and faints, Cass Lake catches him] 

  Cass Lake : You see? You're exhausted. Listen, I'm going to give you a sponge bath, give you a bracing enema and make you something to eat. Just put your weight on me. I'll take you into the bedroom.

  Ryan Harrison : [startled]  An enema?

• Ryan Harrison : Put your hand in my pocket.

  Cass Lake : All right... What am I looking for?

  Ryan Harrison : Nothing. I just missed you, baby. We're going to party like it's 1995.

  Cass Lake : Oh, Ryan. I hoped you'd say those words. I love you.

  [they kiss] 

  Ryan Harrison : Boy! You really are something, aren't you? You believed me just then, didn't you? How does it feel? You were lit up like Dennis Rodman at Christmastime. You really are good!

  Cass Lake : I do love you, Ryan. I truly do.

  Ryan Harrison : And you eat with that mouth? The Beatles said it best: "She loves you. Yeah, yeah, yeah." Listen, Michelle, my belle, this nowhere man is the walrus. Kookookachoo! Up at the apartment, you said you thought I was innocent. But then visions of a big fat reward danced through your head like sugarplums on steroids. You made a call, you got a gat, and you sicced Johnny Law on me!

  Cass Lake : You're just a big bully, aren't you? That gun was for your protection. I was calling the airlines for you, you mean man! I was trying to get you on the first plane to South America!

  Ryan Harrison : I wish I had a Quarter Pounder with Cheese every time I heard that chestnut. Well, this little nutcracker is not dancing to your suite anymore, princess.
