One line I remember was when the police chief, (lieutenant?) suddenly stepped around the corner with the rocket launcher and says,

"Bye!"

It always makes me jump.

"You're forgetting one thing- I just started using laser cats again!"

Not just any stripper, a "sold out" stripper lol.

Ah, so that's what that one little part was. I was never really sure. At one point I thought he was saying "zoned out" stripper, but that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Anyway, thanks for clearing that up.

It was definitely "zoned - out" - probably cos she had no facial expressions

As well as a lot of strippers are real druggies too.

Yup, definitively zoned out, just watched the movie...

"Sold out" would be a lot funnier than "zoned out".

Because most strippers go into it for the art, but she sold out for the money. Ha!

I can't believe no one has mentioned this line:

He killed twelve people, wounded twenty three more, stole six cars, most of them Ferraris. Robbed eight banks, six supermarkets, four jewelry stores and a candy shop. Six of the ones he killed he carved up with a butcher knife. Two of them were kids. He did all that in two weeks. If anyone deserves to go that way, it sure in the hell was him.

You are toast, my toasty friend.

FBI must be paying pretty good these days

its better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it

"I read minds."

"so what was I just thinking?"

"That I'm full of $hi+"

"Impressive"

"Nor really. You're easy to read."

Mine is 'Well, of course we love her. Don't all FBI agents love their kids?' But I also like, 'Are we talking spaceman here?' Michael Nouri had the best lines.

My favorite is when Gallagher explains it's all about aliens and says to Nouri "even x years of work in the lapd don't prepare you for this" and Nori says "Yes it did!". Cut. Gallagher is behind the bars :)

Yeah, the hippy line was a strange one, made me laugh for no apparent reason. :) Just kind of put in there in the middle of things.
