Twister - Understanding Tornado Intensity with the Fujita Scale
Preacher:
No, that was a good size twister. What was it, an F-3?
Bill:
Solid F-2.
Melissa:
See, now you've lost me again.
Bill:
It's the Fujita Scale. It measures the intensity of a tornado by how much it eats.
Melissa:
Eats?
Bill:
Destroys.
Lawrence:
The one we encountered back there was a strong F-2, F-3 maybe.
Beltzer:
Maybe we'll see some F-4's today.
Haynes:
That would be sweet!
Bill:
4 is good. 4 will relocate your house very efficiently.
Melissa: [silence falls over the group]
Is there an F-5? What would that be like?
Preacher:
...The Finger of God.
Melissa:
None of you have ever seen an F-5?
Bill:
...Just one of us.

Twister - Nickname Origins in a Storm Chasing Crew
Melissa:
I was just wondering why do you call Billy "The Extreme"?
Dusty:
Cause Billy is The Extreme.
Preacher:
Bill is most out-of-control sonofabitch in the gang!
Bill: [Gives Jo a look, who smirks back]
No, I think I came in 2nd.
Dusty:
Oh, I've seen The Extreme in high gear.
Jo: [Leaves to take a shower]
You guys need to come up with some new stories. I'm gonna go clean up.
Dusty:
So we get this one near Daleton right?
Rabbit:
Oh, god.
Dusty:
And we are way too close. And Jo's got the vid on it right, she's filming it. And all of the sudden outta nowhere, this shitty lookin green Valiant comes pulling up right in the way.
Beltzer: [points to Bill]
And this loser stumbles out of the car, he's got like a bottle of Jack Daniel's in his hand...
Dusty:
He is naked!
Rabbit:
He is buck naked.
Beltzer:
Naked!
Bill: [laughter]
NOT naked! I was not naked!
Beltzer: [whispering into Melissa's ear]
He was without apparel.
Bill:
Half naked.
Dusty: [laughter]
Naked. Ok, so Jo's yelling at him to get out of the way, right? And he just strolls up to the twister, says have a drink', and he chucks the bottle into the twister, and it NEVER hits the ground.
Beltzer:
The twister caught it and sucked it right up!
Bill:
Honey, this is a tissue full of lies. See, there was another Bill, an evil Bill, and I killed him.
Dusty:
I LOVE THIS GUY!
