Domino Harvey

[edit]
  • [Voiceover] You're probably wondering how a girl like me arrived here, at the arse end of the Nevada desert with a blood-spattered Winnebago and a one-armed man.
  • [Narrates] My name is Domino Harvey. I am a bounty hunter. You're probably wondering how a girl like me arrived here. What I say will determine whether or not I spend the rest of my life in prison. Let's start at the beginning.
  • [Voiceover] That's my best friend. His name is Choco. He's always fancied me, but too shy to ever do anything about it.
  • [Voiceover] That's our driver Alf. He's from Afghanistan. He once ate a cat. We can't understand how to pronounce his fucking name so we just call him the cat eating alien.
  • [Voiceover] After Dad passed on, my mum's agenda was to hit the town and find another husband with a boatload of cash.
  • [Voiceover] She decided to sock me and my goldfish Sammy away in boarding school. A week later, Sammy died. It was a pivotal moment in my life. I decided to never invest too much emotion in one thing. It's always a set-up to the pain of losing them.
  • [Voiceover] Beverly Hills High for a spell, but it didn't work out. I hated them. I hated them all. College was even worse. Mum convinced me to join a sorority. It was all fun and games at first. Then the hazing started.
  • [Voiceover] I've never killed anyone. I hope to never kill anyone, even if they deserve it. My agenda is to kick ass and secure the bounty. If I'm on this side of the law I can live the low life and avoid jail. I can live nasty and not do time for it. That's called the best of both worlds. As for that other world, that 90210 world, it's not for me.
  • [Voiceover] Nobody really knows where Ed came from. This much is clear, the man's been places, seen things, lived life. He did a term in Soledad and a term in Angola where he lost a toe during a prison riot. The man's a warrior.
  • If you're wondering what's true and what isn't, fuck off, because it's none of your goddamn business!
  • I saved her... And when she is older, a woman named Domino will tell her that there is only one conclusion to every story... We all fall down.
  • [Voice-over] I decided to never invest too much emotion in one thing. It's always a set-up to the pain of losing them.
  • [Voice-over] Choco grew up on the streets of Venezuela. When he was four years old, he stabbed another kid in the eyeball with a pencil.
  • [Voice-over] There were wires crossed somewhere in his soul.
  • [Voice-over] When I was a little girl my father told me that if you weren't careful you could lose everything you've ever earned in life in a split second. You have to know when to cash out.
  • [Voice-over] God created me in his image. I guess he had a thing for models.
  • [Voice-over] If you think America is dirtbag central, clearly you've never been to the skeeze nation of our queen mother.
  • [Voice-over] I could feel the blood coursing through my veins. Shotgun in hand, kicking down a door and wondering if there was heavy firepower on the other side.
  • [Voice-over] That night, my coin was tossed. Heads, you live. Tails, you die. 50/50 chance. Life or death. This ain't Sunset Boulevard. My destiny was life. Life as a bounty hunter.
  • [Voice-over] I've been training since I was twelve. Knives, guns, throwing stars. You name it, and I can fight with it. I'm a hard worker. I'm a hard worker and a fast learner. Nothing scares me. I'm not afraid to die.
  • There are three kinds of people in the world... the rich... the poor... and everyone in between.
  • Put your fucking weapon down!
  • [Voiceover] That's Ed Moseby, the most legendary bounty hunter in all of Los Angeles. He's my boss, my mentor, the father I never had.
  • [Voiceover] To say that Choco is the product of a broken home is to presume a home existed in the first place. No. Choco never had a home, well, not unless you count the ten or so juvenile correction facilities where he spent his child hood.
  • Sometimes a girl has to be naughty in order to get herself out of a jam. [Proceeds to perform a lap dance for a thug]
  • [To Choco from motel room door] Do you mind if I ask you a question? Do I look like I speak Spanish? Do I look South American to you? I don't understand a word you're fucking saying! You know what?! Ed's right! It's not cute! It's not fucking cute! It's never been fucking cute, Choco! I don't fucking understand you! You're a freak! [Slams motel room door in his face]
  • [In tactical team bus to TV camera man] Turn the fucking camera off!

Kimmie

[edit]
  • I should let you know that Mr. Heiss will only be available to meet for about five minutes, so we should hurry up and cut to the point. Um, and speak in short sentences because he has the attention span of a ferret on crystal meth.

Mark Heiss

[edit]
  • You tell Domino Harvey that nobody messes with Mark Heiss! Nobody messes with the WB!
  • [After a particularly unpleasant day of filming the bounty hunters' reality TV show, to Ian Ziering and Brian Austin Green, the hosts] This is going to jump-start your careers!
  • [As he chews gum] It's like... Night... of the Living Dead!

Sophie Wynn

[edit]
  • Absolutely brilliant.

Ed

[edit]
  • Love is a battlefield, baby.
  • Excuse the fuck out of us!
  • [Domino, Ed and Choco are about to make a bust] Okay, Domino, you're with me on the side. [Cocks shotgun] Choco, you cover the rear.
  • I blew off my own goddamn toe. Just to numb the pain. Let me tell you something, we all get weak over women. We all get weak over women. Fuckin' broads are all nuts. They know how to kill us.

Howie Stein

Locus Fender

[edit]
  • I'm gonna fill up the tank and grab a Mountain Dew. Don't make a peep. Especially you, Barbara.

Frances

[edit]
  • Listen to me... bitch. I don't think you know who the fuck you are dealing with.

Dialogue

[edit]
Lateesha Rodriguez: Now, as a "Blactino" woman, I believe we deserve our own race category to forge an identity, Jerry. That's how I feel.
Jerry Springer: Did you just say "Blactino"?
Lateesha Rodriguez: Yes, I did. I'm a "Blactino"-American.
Chinegro Woman: Wow. Uh, first of all... first of all, you don't even look latino. You look black. You're... you're black. Second of all, I'm of mixed race, and I've struggled my whole life as to whether I'm Chinese or whether I'm black.
Lateesha Rodriguez: "Chinegro"! What you are is "Chinegro"!
Chinegro Woman: "Chinegro"?!
Lateesha Rodriguez: "Chinegro"! There you go!
Chinegro Woman: "Chinegro"?!
Lateesha Rodriguez: You are a "Chinegro"!
Chinegro Woman: What the [bleeped] is "Chinegro"?!
Lateesha Rodriguez: That's what you are! "Chinegro" is you!
Chinegro Woman: That's some bulls- [bleeped]
Jerry Springer: Okay, as I understand it, you brought a mixed-race flow chart with you. Why don't we bring that out? [Crowd shouts and booes]
Lateesha Rodriguez: [To a random heckler] How you doin', sugar? All right. I'm gonna call you later. Mwah. All right. [Crowd laughs] Take a look at this... [Unveils a chart] "Blactino", "Blackasian", "Hispasian", okay? Now, for the Asian subcategories, [to the "Chinegro" woman] I got you, sister! We have "Chinegro" right here! That's you! "Chinegro"!
Chinegro Woman: That's not a word! That's not a word!
Lateesha Rodriguez: Yes, it is, sister. We have "Koreagro". "Japegro", okay?! [Crowd laughs] "Chispanic, "Koreaspanic", and last but not least, check this out, y'all... "Japanic". [Crowd cheers] That's how I flow with it!
Jerry Springer: Do you believe the government should recognize these racial subgroups?
Lateesha Rodriguez: Yes, Jerry, I do.
Claremont Williams: It's very simple. The DMV is the de facto conduit for all humanity, and every human being that we track down has a record in the DMV database. Whether it be LAPD, Social Services, the Credit Bureau, or the FBI, they all use the DMV's database as their hub. So, we have people on the inside who feed us the information.
Ed: And who would know it? The gatekeepers of humanity turn out to be a bunch of sassy black women.
Ian Ziering: Come on, Bri. We're late, we're late.
Brian Austin Green: Dude, it's fucking Mapquest. I told you, never again with that piece of shit.
Ed: [Upon first meeting Domino] Why would a delicate little thing like you wanna be a bounty hunter?
Domino Harvey: I wanna have a little fun.
Bounty Hunter Seminar Loser #1: Hey, how about it? Want to ride some bounty hunter cock?
Domino Harvey: Fuck you, dickhead!
Bounty Hunter Seminar Loser #1: Ooh. Bitch!
Brian Austin Green: What background should someone have if they want to go into bounty hunting?
Ed: How does jail sound?
Claremont Williams: Why would you use Jerry Springer as a platform for some kind of progressive race modification proposal, anyway?
Lateesha Rodriguez: Well, I don't think Ted Koppel would book Lateesha Rodriguez!
Choco: [Domino and a wounded Ed and Choco are trapped in an elevator plummeting to an almost certain death] I love you.
Domino Harvey: [Narrates] I once swore never to invest too much emotion in anyone. [In scene] I love you. [They kiss, then narrates, tearfully] I love you, Choco.
Ed: [Shouts] It's a great day to die!
Wanderer: I know you. You're the angel of fire. Angel of fire. I know you. You burn bright enough to know there are certain sacrifices that need to be made. You see, if you don't give back the money, you all will die. And you will die contorted, and you will die unforgiven. You see, there's... there's this... this puzzle, and at the centre of this puzzle, there's a child, and this is a very sick child. [Echoing] A very sick child. But this child will be a great leader someday. Do you know the child I speak of?
Domino Harvey: Yes.
Wanderer: Well, you have only one destiny, and that destiny is... that you must offer your lives in exchange for the life of the child. Then, and only then, will you truly be cleansed in the blood of the lamb.
Domino Harvey: I want you to book us a hotel suite.
Brian Austin Green: What, with my money?
Domino Harvey: I want you to put it on your credit card.
Brian Austin Green: Are you serious? [Domino glares at him] Okay, okay, don't look at me that way!
Domino Harvey: What's his problem?
Ed: Latin petulance. Hold on. Give me a minute with him.
Ed: ['"About Domino] You and I walk down the street, what do people see? A couple of losers, right? We add her to the equation you know what people are gonna think?
Choco: What?
Ed: There goes two of the coolest motherfuckers who ever lived. Hmm?
Choco: You know what? I don't know about you, man, but I'm already a cool motherfucker, you know?
Lateesha Rodriguez: All right, y'all, Lateesha done... Lateesha done dug herself a deep hole, and, uh, she can't get out by herself. Can y'all dig what I'm saying?
Raul: Mija, we're in a hole together. We dig together. We're a team.
College girl: My friend Tina, she thought you were dead.
Ian Ziering: Oh, really? Well, tell your friend Tina... she's a whore.
Bishop Goon #1: You want me to shoot 'em in the kneecaps?
Anthony Cigliutti: Now, you listen to me. Hold on one second. Ask them politely where the money is. If they don't know, just tell them to start digging their own graves.
Anthony Cigliutti: [Answers phone] Yeah. Hello?
Zoo President: Mr. Cigliutti? I'm calling from the Zeta Theta Theta house at Cal West LA.
Anthony Cigliutti: Yes, yes. What is it?
Zoo President: I'm sorry to be bothering you. It's a bit of an emergency.
Anthony Cigliutti: What?
Zoo President: Your sons have been kidnapped by these crazy game show hosts.
Howie Stein: Please, I just supply them with pussy!
Lester Kincaid: I just want to get people high, man!
Taryn Miles: Miss Harvey, my name is Taryn Mills. I'm a criminal psychologist working for the FBI. I'm here to ask you a few questions.
Domino Harvey: [Voiceover] Here's the part where I'm supposed to get all defensive and say, "Not until I speak with my attorney." [In scene] I'll tell you everything I know.
Ed: [Watching the Manchurian Candidate] Heh. I knew Frank.
Edna Fender: Who didn't?
Ed: Hey, Edna you know what, sweetheart? You got, like, seven minutes to open that goddamn freezer or I'm gonna flush that fucking arm down the toilet.
Edna Fender: Fucker!
Sorority Hazer: [Referring to row of pledges] This is fucking disgusting! [Draws on pledge's rear] Disgusting! [Glances at Domino's breasts] Look at these mosquito bites. What's it like to have the body of a ten-year-old boy?
Domino Harvey: [Leans in faux studiousness] Have you had a nose job?
Sorority Hazer: No. [Domino starts punching Sorority Hazer in the face with Sorority Hazer falling to the floor with Sorority Hazer holding her nose, then Domino turns around with both fists in air to sorority]
Kimmie: [Into microphone] Just go in with batons and nun-chucks.
Mark Heiss: [Into microphone] Use nun-chucks. Nun-chucks are good.
Drake Bishop: [To the Security technician] Rewind, please.
Burke Beckett: [Also to the technician] Rewind the tape.
Drake Bishop: Freeze the tape.
Burke Beckett: Freeze the tape.
Drake Bishop: Now, can you zoom in?
Burke Beckett: Zoom in, please.
Drake Bishop: You a fucking mockingbird? Shut the fuck up!
Burke Beckett: I just...
Ed: [Choco walks into motel room with Ed watching an adult film] Man, they never show the cum shots in these shitbag motels. [Choco destroys the TV] Jesus Christ, Choco! I just got done paying 12.95 for this movie! I'm never gonna know how it ends!
Choco: Don't fuck with me, Ed.
Ed: Listen, Choco, don't go goddamn King Kong on me, okay? If you want to be alone... if you need me, I'll tell you what... I'll be in Domino's room. I'll be makin' up my own ending.
Choco: Shut up!
Ed: Come on, boy. I'm gonna whip your ass, and then I'm gonna whip your goddamn girlfriend's ass! [Choco aims gun at him] Do it! Hey, wait a minute! What are you doing? Over this?! Pull the fucking trigger!
Choco: I will fucking pull it!
