• Anton : Hey, I didn't kill anyone on purpose, okay?

  Mick : Yeah, well, we weren't in hell! I mean, there was this bright white light at the end of a long tunnel, right, and there was these chicks' voices, and that music...

  Anton : Music?

  Pnub : Yeah, kinda uncool music, like, Enya. And these chicks' voices, they were saying, "come to us, come towards the light".

  Anton : So what happened?

  Mick : We figured, fuck it, I mean, it was really far!

• Anton : You lied to me!

  Mick : You killed me, let's try to keep this thing in perspective here!

• Anton : [Hears moaning coming from Mick's grave]  Mick?

  Mick : Over here. Anton, help me. Come on, man, I can't breathe down here. Anton? Anton, can you hear me?

  Anton : [Kneels and leans over Mick's grave]  Mick?

  Mick : Yeah man, it's Mick.

  Anton : You're dead!

  Mick : No I'm not! You conked me on the head pretty good. I must've been unconcious.

  Anton : You think?

  Mick : I know fucker, now dig me up!

• Anton : What the fuck are you doing, man? Come on, that's my dad!

  Pnub : CPR, man! I saw it on Baywatch, man!

• Pnub : Don't you watch the news?

  Anton : I hate that fucking show.

• Anton : Who's your daddy now, bitch, huh? Who's your fucking daddy now?

• Anton : So, what are you guys doing here?

  Pnub : We need a place to kick it. Don't be selfish, Anton! No one else's parents are dead!

• Anton : Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today because you're all dead... and it's all my fault. Mom, Dad, you fed me, kept a roof over my head until I killed you. Which I guess doesn't make me a very good son. But, I'm gonna try to change.

  [hand twitches] 

  Anton : Mick, Pnub I'll never forget all those times we sat around, watched TV and got really, really stoned. And all those other times we just... well I guess that's all we did.

  [picks flowers from garden and throws them over the 'graves'] 

  Anton : Amen.

• Anton : [while attempting to cut his hand off]  This is it, I know it.

  Pnub : Those things won't even cut my bagel.

• Mick : Anton it's killing me to see me to see you this stressed out man. You cut off your hand in the interest of who knows how many others. So, what I want you to do is take a little Anton time. Okay just relax, kick back my man.

  Anton : No, no, no, you know what? Not this time. Okay I'm through with that, I mean all I do is I sit around all day I veg out, I watch TV, I smoke pot...

  Mick : No, no, no, no Kevin Costner speeches okay? Let's just go.

• Anton : Everybody go home, there's a psycho killer here! I cut off my hand, and now it's gonna kill you all!

• Anton : [after cutting his hand off]  Where did it go?

  Pnub : What, you mean the hand?

  Anton : Of course I mean the hand!

  Pnub : Try looking up your ass.

• Anton : [singing]  Devil girl, with nothin' to lose, she's got wind in her hair and gum on her sho-o-o-es!

• Anton : We're gathered here today... um... because you're all dead.

• [Anton is about to chop off his 'evil' right hand] 

  Mick : Wait a minute. If you chop off your right hand, how are you going to chop the other one off?

  Anton : Oh no, man, the lefty's a keeper. I mean, I guess it wasn't idle enough.

  Mick : Really?

  Anton : Oh yeah, I mean, I hit the remote with it, light up with it, relieve a little tension. No, this is the answer.

• Anton : All I do is sit around all day, smoke pot, watch TV...

  Mick : No, no! No Kevin Costner speech, let's just go!
