Paulie - Negotiating the Price of Paulie
Benny: [to Artie]
How much do you want for him, Artie?
Artie:
A lot more than ten bucks, baby. You'd have to grift for more than a year to make his numbers.
Ivy: [to Paulie, Artie, and Benny]
Okay, which one of you three is the proprietor?
Artie: [to Ivy]
Very funny, toots. Uh... What have you there?
Ivy:
Oh, this? This is... This is my easel.
Artie:
Mmm-hmm.
Ivy:
It's a fine one. My late husband go it for me, and I really hate to part with it, you know.
Artie:
Yeah, whatever. Uh... Dead husband aside. Uh... Do you wanna pawn, or sell?
Ivy:
Well...
Tween Paulie: [to Ivy]
The real question is, aren't you prepared to throw in that potholder on your head?!
Ivy: [to Artie]
Well, that was extremely rude! Did you teach him to do that?
Benny: [to Ivy; points at Artie]
Uh... No. No, that's the thing. The dirty mouth is all his.
Tween Paulie: [to Ivy]
What are you looking at?!
Ivy: [to Artie]
You know, I think I'll take him with me.
Benny: [to Ivy]
Well, I don't think so, lady. You see, I saw the bird first.
Ivy: [as Artie and Benny look at each other]
Oh, no, no, no. I'm... I'm afraid you are not the right owner for him. Uh... You know, somebody has got to teach this beautiful bird some manners. Then it might as well be me.
Tween Paulie: [belches]
But, what's wrong with my manners?! BUUUUURRRRRPPPPP!

Paulie - Reflections on a Challenging Journey
Misha: [to Paulie about Marie, Warren, and Lila]
So, they bring you here?
Adult Paulie:
No, no. It wasn't that easy hitting Rock Bottom. I did a bunch of things. First, I did a stint as a window display in a place called, Bloomingdale's. And I was in a brochure for Costa Rica. I did some work as a magician's assistant doing children's parties.
Narrator:
But, when Zintar fell on hard times, he had to choose between me and the cape. Guess which one he pawned.
Tween Paulie: [singing]
What's new, Pussycat? Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah. What's new, Pussycat? Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah.
Artie: [to Paulie]
Shut up, you goddamn flying rat! Shut up!
Tween Paulie: [singing]
Pussycat, pussycat, you are delicious. And if my wishes could only come true...
Artie: [to Paulie]
Maybe you are uncomfortable in there. Maybe you need a change. How about this... uh... nice toaster oven for little old Top Brown only, huh?
Tween Paulie:
Oh, come on, Artie. We haven't pawned anything all day. Look, let's go catch the Number Nine at Belmont. I'm bored.
Artie:
You and me both.
Tween Paulie:
I wanna go home.
Artie: [a side burned Benny, a New Jersey-accented thief, enters the pawnshop with a stolen radio]
Yeah, well, get on the line.
Benny: [to Artie]
You know, Artie, today is your lucky day.
Artie: [inspects the stolen radio]
Right. Fresh out of the showroom, right? Where's the receipt?
Benny:
I lost it.
Artie:
Ten bucks.
Benny:
Ten bucks?! Come on, gimme a break, Artie! I'm trying to upgrade the level of your merchandise here!
Tween Paulie: [to Benny]
Hit the brakes, ugly!
Benny: [to Artie]
Aw, that's cute. Are you training your bird to insult your customers?
Tween Paulie: [to Benny]
No, but I could tell you're ugly all by myself.
Benny: [to Artie]
How'd he do that?
Artie:
He watches television.
Benny: [to Paulie]
What an angle. I could see how his unique skills could really come in handy to an intelligent guy, huh?!
Tween Paulie:
Well, I'll let you know when I'll see one.
