[Before Max's grand robbery] Noodles: I'm gonna be gone for a while. Eve: I'll be waiting at the hotel. I like it when you come home late and wake me up. Noodles: I'm not gonna be home tonight. I'm not gonna be home tomorrow either. Eve: I thought th...
Tallahassee: Goddamn it, Bill fucking Murray! I had to get that out. I don't mean to gush. This is so surreal. I mean, you probably get this all the time. Maybe not lately, but I'm such a huge fan of yours. You know, I swear, I've seen every one of y...
