The Debt Collector Quotes

Sue: You ever driven a car like this before?

French: I ain't never even seen a car like this before, mate.

French: Let me just get something straight, alright? Last job was a 10, yeah? It should have been a fucking walk in the park, but I was shot at, you ran some dickhead over and I was dragged along by a moving car. Now this one's a five, yeah? But you're telling me last time Mad Alex and the Serb got marched out by a bunch of gangbangers. Now, I'm sorry. I know I'm knew to this and all, but I think Tommy needs to rethink his numbering system. That's all I'm saying.

Sue: One man's ten is another man's five, I guess.

Sue: I think it's time to test that mettle of yours, Frenchie.

French: It's just "French".

Jeanette: I'm gonna call the cops!

Sue: You might want to run that by Harvey, Jeanette.

Harvey: Never mind the cops, Jeanette! Call me a god damned ambulance!

French: So I get that we had to rough the guy up, but did you really need to shag his missus?

Sue: Damn straight I did. She was smoking hot. And opportunities like that don't fall into my lap too often, so to speak.

Sue: One time I hung a guy's kid out the window until he paid. He had the money all along. I mean, it was his own child.

French: You wouldn't have dropped the kid though. Right?

Sue: [Thinks a moment] God, I hope not. I can't remember. But I must admit I was being lazy that day - I should have taken it out on the father, yeah?

French: What do you suggest? Other than, of course, kicking the door off it's fucking hinges, what's the best way to get inside?

Sue: Give 'em a little head butt. Just a tap, yeah? Just a tap. You don't want to smash his nose all over his face, 'cause you wanna save that for when you really need it. Right?

French: Like you did with that kid at Tim's, yeah?

Sue: Precisely. Yeah. Just a tap.

French: Just a tap.

Sue: Nice and simple. Simple little tap.

Barbosa: Tommy, we got history!

Tommy: Ah, you piece of shit. You think I don't know you set us up. Did you really think you could kill a guy like Sulinski Golden Boy Baker and just walk away? Not after all the years he walked the line for me.

Laine: Do cows have a good life before they get turned into steak, daddy?

Conor Mulligan: Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course they do, sweetheart. Yeah, cows get to do all the fun things that cows love doing... like eating daisies and, uh, rolling around in the grass. Just like you. Then, you know, the farmer does come along and he looks the cow in the eye and says... "Barbecue time!"

Laine: [Giggles] I'm glad they have a fun life, daddy!

Conor Mulligan: Yeah, me, too, sweetheart. Me, too. Eat your dinner.

Sue: And I'm sorry that I made you drive my luxury, vintage 1971 Coupe D'Ville. I thought it would be a nice gesture to give you a sense of self-worth on your first day, but I guess it wasn't.

French: Well, it is a pretty nice car.
