• Mouse : You just said don't shoot him, right? Well I didn't, I just... I choked him. Easy, look- if you ain't want him killed, why'd you leave him with me?

• Easy Rawlins : Who was that on the phone?

  Mouse : Oh, uh... I don't know, man. Sounded like some white girl.

  [walks into bathroom, whistling] 

• Easy Rawlins : Keep an eye on him.

  Mouse : [drunkenly turns his gun on a passed-out drunk Dupree]  Where you goin'?

• Easy Rawlins : A rich man is willing to pay one thousand dollars just to talk to this girl. A thousand dollars! That's a hell of a lotta money, man! Frank!

  Mouse : Wait-wait-waitaminut-waitaminut. Let me try.

  [hoslsters his revolver, setting Frank at ease] 

  Mouse : Now look here, Frank. It's-it's Frank, right? Frank?

  [pulls out a .22 and shoots Frank in the shoulder, prompting him to flee out the front door] 

  Easy Rawlins : Damn it!

  Mouse : What the hell is wrong with you man! Don't you ever grab me when I got a gun in my hand! Shit! I got blood on my coat, Easy. It's a damn expensive coat.
