Cleavant Derricks: Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown

Quotes 

• Colin Mallory : You will not believe what I just saw!

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : Hey man I told you that spray-on hair doesn't work.

  [laughs] 

  Colin Mallory : There was someone in our room!

  Maggie Beckett : What? What're you talking about?

  Colin Mallory : Uh, a boy, only he wasn't really there, he appeared. He grabbed the TV thingie and walked through a closed door like some kind of, of... non-corporeal shade.

  Maggie Beckett : Are you saying you saw a ghost?

  Colin Mallory : I don't know. Maybe.

  Quinn Mallory : Colin, what were you watching on TV?

  Colin Mallory : A... a movie about a medical pioneer. He created a living creature by stitching together parts of corpses. Man... then towards the end I gather it got a little out of hand.

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : That sounds like Frankenstein.

  Colin Mallory : That's him!

• Quinn Mallory : There is nothing strange going on here except a bunch of tired people in an old hotel with a Boris Karloff marathon on cable.

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : [he and Maggie come charging into the room talking over each other]  I was shaving in the bathroom and something wrote 'Help us' on the mirror!

  Maggie Beckett : There's a head in the icebox, and it had my face!

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : This place is haunted.

  [Colin smirks at Quinn knowingly] 

  Maggie Beckett : Come on! Come on, Colin. I swear, I'm not kidding you, there was a head in the icebox and it looked just like me.

  [as they leave, a mug of beer levitates off the table] 

• Maggie Beckett : In there.

  Colin Mallory : Did it look like you?

  Maggie Beckett : Well it was a little frosty, but yeah.

  [the men look in the ice machine] 

  Maggie Beckett : Well?

  Quinn Mallory : Take a look.

  [Maggie peers in, sees only ice] 

  Maggie Beckett : [walks away]  Okay, there was a head in the icebox, and it looked just like me.

  Quinn Mallory : [grabs her by the back of the head]  Well since yours seems to be firmly attached, I really would not sweat it.

  Maggie Beckett : Okay don't you blow me off. I know a disembodied head when I see one.

  Colin Mallory : I believe you.

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : I *know* I believe her.

• Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : [Maggie is hysterical about being locked in the basement with rats]  Hey girl, I thought you were in the Marines.

  Maggie Beckett : Well I don't like rats!

• Capt. Maggie Beckett : I don't have a problem with two men dancing together.

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : Me either. If the guy asked me...

  Colin Mallory : Wait, I'm confused, those were men? But they looked like women.

  Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown : ...Some guys just like to dress like women. It's... well it's kind of a lifestyle thing.

  Capt. Maggie Beckett : Yeah... it makes them feel... pretty.

  Colin Mallory : Well they *were* pretty.
