Killing and Violence Starting Lines

David - "Gentlemen! There's no cause for violence!"

Hooker - "You know what we do to people who buy scalped basketball tickets, son?"
Victim - "No, what?"
Broad - "We take them to a hotel with a thousand rooms and they die a different death in each one."
Victim - "Oh, that's deep. Say, you oughta send that in to Reader's Digest. They got a page for people like you."

Scott - "GET DOWN!!"

Hooker - "Tell us where the tickets are and you'll go quickly. If not, I'm going to use every one of these little thingies on you."

Carrie - "Look, just give us the tickets or we'll have to take them from you."
David - "Over my dead body, you bloodsucking whore!"
Carrie - "Fair enough."

 


"Are you going to blow my mind,
or shall I blow yours?"
