It's him.

It is him! You guys are in so much trouble!

You know, he's like a turd that won't flush.

I want the girl.

I want the girl. That's all.

Well, what on this screwed-up earth of ours makes you think you're gonna get her? ] from his belt, and holds it over a fume pipe leading down to the Deez's fuel hold]
Mariner:
You know what this is. I drop it, you burn.
Doctor:
We all burn...

Now-now-now, let's not do anything rash here. I mean, are you sure this kid is worth it? I mean, she never does stop talking, she never shuts up!

I noticed.

So what is it, then? It's the map.
Mariner:
She's my friend.
Deacon:
Golly gee, a single tear rolls down my cheek. You're gonna die for your friend.

He's not bluffing, he never bluffs.

SHUT UP! I- I- I- I- I don't think you're gonna drop that torch, my friend.
Mariner:
Why not?

Because you're not crazy. NO...!
