• [Dee Dee walk in on Julie making out with Frankie] 

  Frankie : Dee Dee, hi. Um... you remember her? Her name's Julie.

  Dee Dee : Oh, I remember her. The bride of Godzilla!

• Dee Dee : [angry tone]  I have just one question. Did you kiss him because he's lovable, or because he's the only man on the beach?

  Julie : Because he looked hungry. His last meal obviously didn't satisfy him.

  Dee Dee : Oh, it's a good thing you happended along. I'm sure you could cater supper for an entire army.

  Frankie : Now that's in bad taste.

  Julie : Oh, no. One man at a time. I like to be a devoted chef.

  Dee Dee : But right now you're serving a lot of free meals. Sort of a one-woman bread line.

  Frankie : Ooo, that's smart!

  Julie : [getting angry]  I can afford it.

  Dee Dee : Then he must be of your charity cases!

  Frankie : Now, wait a second. Now, hold on, the football here would like to say something.

  Dee Dee : Well, I'm not through!

  Frankie : Figures!

  Dee Dee : [to Julie]  As the man said, this is a public beach and we're supposed to keep it clean.

  Frankie : Now that's really in bad taste!

  Julie : [to Dee Dee]  Then perhaps, you better leave.

  Frankie : Very good!

  Dee Dee : [to Julie]  I plan to!

  Frankie : Oh, no. Now don't quit now, Dee Dee. I think your ahead.

  Dee Dee : Okay, how's this for a closer?

  [slaps him] 

• Frankie , Dee Dee : [singing]  We're gassed up and headed for the surfer's route, Oh, the guys are hot-doggin' and the honeys are cute, Got a waxed board put it out and baby we're on our way...

  Frankie : Yeahhhh! Easter vacation just started today, now

  Dee Dee : We might stay till the middle of May, now

  Frankie , Dee Dee : Grab your board and follow us to Surfer's holiday!

• Dee Dee : Man, how do you stand it?

  Frankie : Stand what?

  Dee Dee : Being the greatest. How do you stand it?

  Frankie : I haven't thought about it that way. How do I stand it?

• Dee Dee : You make it sound - good!

• Frankie : Man, this is one crazy beach.

  Dee Dee : You can say that again.

  Frankie : Man, this is one crazy beach.

• Dee Dee : I've been thinking.

  Frankie : That's a great way to ruin an evening.

• Dee Dee : Frank, you've got so much going for you and you're just wasting it.

  Frankie : I'm happy, you goof!

  Dee Dee : That's not enough! You should be doing something more - like making your life count for something beside the next big wave.

• Frankie : Look, the beach is free and the sky goes straight on up and your life is your own! Isn't that enough?

  Dee Dee : No, it isn't.

  Frankie : Well, it is for me! This is the way I want it. I want it easy and I want it free. I want it without the ropes, squares, bills, or bombs. This is my world because I don't ask anything of it.

  Dee Dee : That's just it. All you ever do is take.

  Frankie : I only take what's free. Now you swing with me on that or you don't swing at all. Now, cool it Dee Dee. I'm going to hit the surf.

• Julie : [referring to Frankie]  He looked so sad. Like he lost something.

  Dee Dee : Then, maybe you didn't notice his license.

  Julie : I didn't even notice his leash.
