Vivian Hedgeworth : Darling, don't fret about her. She is socially inferior. The whole family is a rather trashy lot!
Bigby Powers : Mrs. Hedgeworth, my daughter isn't socially inferior to anyone.
Vivian Hedgeworth : You, sir, are an uncouth ass!
Bigby Powers : Well, lady, your ass isn't exactly perfect, either!
Collins Hedgeworth : [fuming] Sir, you just insulted my mother!
[shoves Bigby]
Bigby Powers : [shoves back] Your mother asked for it!
[Collins begins making nonsensical karate moves and exhaling, but Bigby simply punches Collins in the mouth and he falls down]
Vivian Hedgeworth : YOU SADISTIC BRUTE!
Bigby Powers : I'm glad Paula didn't marry him! He's a flake!
[walks away as a pained Collins begins flailing around uncontrollably]

Collins Hedgeworth : Sir, I'd like to borrow your truck, It's an emergency! Well, if you don't want to sell it, I'll rent it. I'M DESPERATE!

Paula Powers : [noticing Collins driving alongside her and signaling her to put her window down] Oh, God!
Sam Freeman : What's the matter?
Paula Powers : It's Collins Hedgeworth.
Sam Freeman : He looks a little frazzled. You want me to talk to him?
Paula Powers : I will.
[rolls down her window]
Paula Powers : Collins, I don't need your help!
Collins Hedgeworth : [holds up his riding crop] I'm here to save you!
Paula Powers : I'm sorry if you misunderstood, but we're not engaged! We never were engaged!
Collins Hedgeworth : Has he got a gun on you?
Paula Powers : No! Please leave us alone!
Collins Hedgeworth : Is there a bomb in the car?
Sam Freeman : [Paula rolls her eyes and closes the window. Collins frantically bangs on the window with the riding crop as Sam crawls into the back seat and puts down the window] Look, it's obvious she doesn't want to talk to you, so why don't you just drop it?
Collins Hedgeworth : I hesitate to do this with Paula in the car, but I am a superior driver and I'll batter you into submission if need be! I will bump you off this highway!

Collins Hedgeworth : Reverse your direction, damn it!
Preacher : You watch your trash mouth, boy!
