    Wake in Fright quotes

    • Jock Crawford: [after showing him the Two-up school] D'you get the idea now, Jack?

      John Grant: Well, you just bet on whether the pennies come down heads or tails.

      Jock Crawford: Yeah, that's right.

      John Grant: You think this crowd will be at each other's throats when they settle?

      Jock Crawford: Ah, there's hardly a fight. Each man knows what's coming to him, he just goes and gets it.

    • Jock Crawford: [on the current Two-up spinner] Yeah, Charlie always goes for eight hundred or bust. You gotta throw four heads in a row to do it, too.

      John Grant: And what does he do with the winnings?

      Jock Crawford: Well, nothing.
