Uncle Ed : [in a hospital hallway] What's this I hear from Stephanie about you becoming a policeman?
Billy Costigan : You mean Stephanie, who was the only one who came to my father's funeral? That Stephanie?
Uncle Ed : Yeah, *that* Stepanie.
Billy Costigan : Nothing much to it, Uncle Edward.
Uncle Ed : Are you trying to prove something to the family?
Billy Costigan : When you say "the family," who do you mean exactly? You?
Uncle Ed : You always have to question everything, don't you?
Billy Costigan : Maybe it would have done you some good to have some *questions* from time to time, you know? "Am I an asshole? Are my kids a mess? Is my wife a money-grubbing whore?" I mean, those are questions, right? "Have I ever been good to my dying sister or am I just now pretending to be?"
Uncle Ed : Do you need some money for the funeral?
Billy Costigan : When my mother dies, we don't have any more connection.
