The King of Staten Island - The Importance of Small Goodbyes
Scott Carlin:
Anyway, have a great day at school, ahh... . I hope its not shitty, and... umm... yea... give your sister a kiss goodbye.
Harold:
We don't do that.
Scott Carlin: [''Harold kisses Kelly on the forehead'']
Just do it. See, wasn't that nice? Now if she dies tomorrow, you'll remember that, that you kissed her goodbye. Have a good day at school.
Harold:
Later man.
Scott Carlin:
Pay attention.
Kelly:
Why would I die?
Scott Carlin:
I dunno... you never know what is going to happen. You think you're immortal?

The King of Staten Island - Confrontation Over Ownership and Identity
Gina:
No, I'm not fucking letting you take em. Fuck you. Who the fuck are you?
Scott:
Yeah, I- I agree with you completely. Why... cause that... It was Ray's idea. I don't think I should be taking them, either. I agree with you.
Gina:
Are you a weirdo?
Scott:
Oh, the weirdest. Nobody's weirder than me.
Gina:
See, a weirdo wouldn't say that. A weirdo would deny it.
Scott:
So, do I have to take em or...?
Gina:
Yes. God, no. I mean, Ray was supposed to do it. I can't fucking do it. Their schools start half an hour apart on the other side of town. So, your mom is banging my ex?
Scott:
Yeah, I'm not thrilled about it, either.
Gina:
Yeah, well, you shouldn't be. Harold. Kelly. Come here. Come here. There's something, something kind of fun. Come here. Come here.
Scott:
Oh, hey, man.
Gina:
So, this is Harold, and this is Kelly. And, uh, this is...
Scott:
Scott.
Gina:
Scott. He's gonna be taking care of you. Okay? It...
Harold:
Nice to meet you, Scott.
Scott:
Hi, Harold. It's nice to meet you. For the very first time.
Gina:
If he does anything weird, you tell me. Even if he tells you not to tell me, you tell me. I'm pretty sure he's not weird, but I could be wrong. Kay? Love you. Okay.
Harold:
Love you, Mom.
Gina:
Seriously.
Kelly: [''Scott walks off with Harold and Kelly'']
Love you, Mom. Bye.
Gina:
Pay attention.
Scott:
Got it.
Gina:
Hold both their hands! Thank you. Look both ways!

The King of Staten Island - Unexpected Tattoo Encounter in the Woods
Raymond:
Hello, my name is Raymond Bishop. This is my son, Harold. Say hello, Harold.
Harold:
I’m sorry.
Margie:
What’s going on?!
Raymond:
It seems your son was down in the woods giving out free tattoos and my son was one of his victims!
Margie:
I don’t understand! How do you know it was my son?! How did you get this address?!
Raymond:
I have my ways. Believe me, I have my ways.
Margie:
You a cop?!
Raymond: [''Grabs Harold's right arm and holds it up'']
No I’m a fireman. I work for a living. Look at this! You believe this?! See that there?! See that line?! I don’t know if you burn these off or what but we’re taking care of this and you’re paying for it, you understand me?!
Margie: [''To Raymond''; [w:Tattoo removal|an aesthetic laser]
Scott! I’m so sorry. There’s ] at the hospital where I work and it can completely remove it! I get a discount! I’m gonna pay for the whole thing! I don’t know what I’m saying! I feel terrible!
Raymond:
You should feel terrible! Look at that!
Scott: [Pokes his head of his room, sees Ray and tries to run away]
What’s up? Oh fuck!
Raymond:
There he is! Get your ass over here!
Scott:
Hey, he said he was eighteen!
Raymond:
He looks like he’s four you fucking moron!
Scott:
He consented!
Harold:
He’s lying!
Scott:
Harold, come on!
Raymond:
Of course he’s lying! You can’t have consent! He’s nine years old!
Harold:
Dad, let’s go! You’re embarrassing me!
Raymond:
We’re not going anywhere! He’s just a little kid! What the fuck is wrong with you?!
Scott:
He was roaming around in the woods, he wanted a tattoo! Where were you?!
Raymond:
I was at fucking work!
Scott:
Fuck you!
Raymond:
If I was you I would shut your fucking mouth because I can call the cops right now and have your ass thrown in jail!
Scott:
For what?!
Raymond:
For sticking needles in a kid’s arm, you fucking dope! Did you even raise him? Did you even raise him?!
Margie:
There’s no reason to call the cops! I can handle this and I can also handle disciplining him!
Raymond:
Well clearly you can’t or you wouldn’t have a middle-aged son still living at home, tattooing minors against their will.
Harold:
I asked him to do it.
Scott:
That’s right. That’s my man.
Raymond:
Go wait in the car, Harold. And don’t raise your voice at me either.
Scott:
Later Harold.
Raymond:
Don’t say goodbye to my kid.
Raymond:
Look both ways! Look both ways!
Harold:
I am!
Raymond:
Watch your mouth!
Margie: [''To Scott'']
Go to your room!
Scott: [''Scott leaves'']
For your information I am not middle-aged. I am a twenty-four year old man and I am going to my room because I fucking want to!
Raymond:
What kind of animal are you raising in this house? I’m bringing you the bill, I don’t care what it costs. I mean what the fuck is going on around here?
Margie:
Just give me a day to arrange the laser!
Raymond:
You know something?! Is his father home?! Where’s his dad?! I don’t want to fucking yell at you!
Margie:
He’s deceased.
Raymond:
Well I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sure if he was still around he would agree with the fact that you should still pay for it.

The King of Staten Island - Discussion on a Painful Tattoo Experience
Igor:
That looks really good.
Scott:
I wish you’d let me do something cooler but yeah. We see the tattoo, a smiley face captioned “Unfollow Me.”
Igor:
Fuck no. That hurt so bad.
Oscar:
Another dumb tattoo.
Scott:
I like the pain. The pain’s the whole point of getting tattoos. Don’t you just love when you get a tattoo and it hits the bone and pinches a nerve and you’re like “Ah!”
Igor:
I’m not a fan of the pain.
Richie:
You shouldn’t let him do it to you. He’s inconsistent.
Oscar:
That tattoo’s dumb.
Igor:
Y’all should’ve told me when you saw the design.
Oscar:
It says “Unfollow Me.” You don’t even have that many followers.
Igor:
Carla follows me.
Richie:
Bro, she’s imaginary!
Richie:
How many times do we have to say this? Oscar punches a bug.
Oscar:
I hate bugs, dog. I’m a gangster!
Scott:
That’s a bee, bro!
Oscar:
There’s a kid down there. Yo, kid!
Scott:
Oh shit, there is a kid.
Oscar:
What’re you doing? You hanging out on the beach? Come here. Don’t be shy. No stranger danger here. I’m not gonna touch you.
Scott:
What’s up, pal?
Oscar:
What’re you doing?
Harold:
Looking for my friend.
Scott: [''Mocks'']
Looking for my friend.
Oscar:
You wanna be friends with us? We’re the good guys.
Scott:
You can hang out with us.
Oscar: [''[[w:Fist bump|Extends fist; ''Oscar and Harold bump fists and Harold spots Scott’s tattoo gun'']
Lemme get some of that. Put it here. You gang. Part of the gang.
Harold:
What’s that?
Scott:
It’s a tattoo gun. I was giving the homies tattoos.
Harold:
I want a tattoo.
Scott:
Sure young guy. You want a tattoo?
Harold:
Yeah.
Oscar:
Kid wants a tattoo. That’s my guy right there.
Igor:
You can’t give him a tattoo. He’s a little kid.
Scott:
I gotta practice on something. He seems old enough.
Oscar:
You a tough guy?
Harold:
Yeah.
Oscar: [''Flexing arms''; ''Harold flexes arms'']
You’re a badass. Come on, show those muscles kid. Come on, both arms. Put ‘em up.
Oscar:
There we go. What’s your name?
Harold:
Harold.
Oscar:
I’m gonna call you Harry.
Harold:
Don’t. It’s Harold.
Richie:
Hell yeah.
Oscar:
I like this kid. I need him in my life. He has structure.
Igor:
I don’t think that’s a good idea.
Scott:
We don’t listen to anything you say.
Oscar:
Why do you even try to give us advice?
Scott:
What do you want a tattoo of?
Harold: [[w:The Punisher|The Punisher]
].
Scott:
The Punisher?
Oscar: [''Scott shows his phone to Harold'']
That’s tough, man. He could’ve said anything. He said The Punisher.
Scott:
I can do that. Is that it?
Harold:
Yeah that’s him.
Scott:
Are you sure?
Harold:
Yes.
Scott:
Do I have your legal permission to do this?
Harold:
Yes.
Scott:
That’s good enough for me. How about you guys?
Oscar:
Holds up in court.
Scott:
You guys heard it.
Igor:
He can’t give consent! He’s ten.
Scott:
Now hold still, okay? Because it is permanent.
Igor:
Guys, stop.
Oscar:
Put your game face on.
Scott:
Don’t worry, dude. This’ll just be on you for the rest of your life.
Harold:
I DON’T WANNA DO IT! I DON’T WANNA!
Scott: [''Harold runs away'']
I gotta finish it. Now there’s just a line. You’re gonna look stupid.
Richie:
Run little man, run!
Oscar:
Goddamn it. I fucking believed in that kid.
Scott:
He seemed so tough at first but then immediately wasn’t.
Oscar:
That’s why I don’t fuck with millennials.
Scott:
Again, we are the millennials.
Oscar:
You keep saying that but I don’t know what that means.
Igor:
I regret my friendship with you guys.
