Ocean's Eleven

Bartender: How's it going in there? Rusty: Longest hour of my life. Bartender: What? Rusty: I'm running away with your wife. Bartender: Great. Danny: They say I paid my debt to society. Tess: Funny, I never got a check. Rusty: You'd need at least a dozen guys doing a combination of jobs. Danny: What do you think? Rusty: Off the top of my head, I say, looking at a Bowski, a Jim Brown, two Jethro's and a Leon Spinx, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald....ever! Reuben: You guys are pro's, the best. I'm sure you can make it out of the casino, of course, lest we forget, once you're out the front door, you're still in the middle of the fucking desert! Danny: You remember the day I went out for cigarettes and didn't come back? You must have noticed! [Goes to sit down] Danny: . Tess: I don't smoke. Don't sit! Saul: Tess is with Benedict now? She's too tall for him! [Last minute tips for Linus] Rusty: You look down, they know you're lying and up, they know you don't know the truth. Don't use seven words when four will do. Don't shift your weight, look always at your mark but don't stare, be specific but not memorable, be funny but don't make him laugh. He's got to like you then forget you the moment you've left his side. And for God's sake, whatever you do, don't, under any circumstances.... Livingston: Rus? Rusty: Yeah? Livingston: Come look at this? Rusty: Sure Rusty: Did someone call for a doctor? [On the phone] Terry: Who is this? Rusty: The man who is robbing you! Tess: We need to get Rust a girl. Rusty: There's a women's prison down the road! [his only line in English] Yen: Where the fuck you been? Terry: Alright, you proved your point. Congratulations, you're a dead man. [pretending the Nevada Gaming Commission is racist] Frank: They might as well call it whitejack! Turk Malloy: I'm gonna get out of the car and drop you like third period French. Rusty: You scared? Linus: You suicidal? Rusty: Only in the morning. Danny: Ten oughta do it, don't you think? Do you think we need one more? You think we need one more? Alright, we'll get one more. Danny: Does he make you laugh? Tess: He doesn't make me cry. Danny: Thirteen million and you drive this piece of shit cross country to pick me up? Rusty: Blew it all on the suit. Rusty: The Bellagio and the Mirage. These are Terry Benedict's places. Danny: Yes they are. You think he'll mind? Danny: There's a ninety-five pound Chinese man with a hundred sixty million dollars behind this door. Linus: Let's get him out. Reuben: Second most successful robbery. The Flamingo in '71. This guy actually tasted fresh oxygen before they grabbed him. Of course, he was breathing out of a hose for the next three weeks. God damn hippy. Reuben: Look, we all go way back and uh, I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place and I'll never forget it. Danny: That was our pleasure. Rusty: I'd never been to Belize. Danny: Why do they always paint hallways that color? Rusty: They say taupe is soothing. Danny: Saul, are you sure you're ready to do this? Saul: If you ever ask me that question again Daniel, you will not wake up the following morning. Danny: He's ready. Danny: And I always confuse Monet and Manet. Now which one married his mistress? Tess: Monet. Danny: Right, and then Manet had syphilis. Tess: They also painted occasionally. Tess: You're a thief and a liar. Danny: I only lied about being a thief, and I don't do that anymore. Tess: Steal? Danny: Lie. Tess: You know what your problem is? Danny: I only have one? Basher: So unless we intend to do this job in Reno, we're in Barney. Barney Rubble. Trouble! [Danny has just been released from prison, in a tuxedo.] Rusty: I hope you were the groom. Danny: Ted Nugent called. He wants his shirt back. Virgil Malloy: Watch it, bud. Turk Malloy: Who you calling bud, pal? Virgil Malloy: Who you calling pal, friend? Turk Malloy: Who you calling friend, jackass?! Virgil Malloy: Don't call me a jackass. Turk Malloy: I just did call you a jackass. Rusty: [To Daniel Ocean coming out of prison in a tuxedo] I hope you were the groom. Danny: You're either in or you're out. [While they are watching a dozen Chinese acrobats at a circus] Danny: Which one is the amazing Yen? Rusty: He's the little Chinese guy. [Shaking Billy Tim Denham's hand] Frank: You have lovely hands. Do you moisturize? Billy Tim Denham: I'm Sorry? Frank: You know, I've tried all sorts of moisturizers. I even went fragrance free for a whole year. Now my sister, she uses some kind of uh... uh... uh.. uh...aloe vera with a little sunscreen in it, and ideally, we should all wear gloves when going to bed, but I found out that that creates a kind of an interference with my... social agenda, you know what I mean. Rusty: Why do this? Danny: Why not do it? [Rusty shakes his head] Danny: Cause yesterday I walked out of the joint after losing four years of my life and you're cold-decking teen beat cover boys. [pause] Danny: Cause the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes. The house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet big, then you take the house. Rusty: Been practicing this speech, haven't you? Danny: Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt I rushed it. Rusty: No, it was good, I liked it. Terry: I know everything that's happening in my hotels. Danny: So I should put the towels back? Tess: Danny was walking through the restaurant when he spotted me. Terry: Is that right? Danny: Yeah, imagine the odds. Terry: Of all the gin joints in all the world. Danny: You look bored. Rusty: I am bored! Livingston: The moment you set foot on that casino floor, they'll be watching you like hawks. Hawks with video cameras. Basher: A pinch creates a similar electromagnetic pulse, but without the fuss of mass destruction and death. So instead of Hiroshima, you'd be getting the seventeenth century. Saul: I have a question, say we get into the cage, and through the security doors there and down the elevator we can't move, and passed the guards with the guns, and into the vault we can't open... Rusty: Without being seen by the cameras Danny: Oh Yeah, sorry, I forgot to mention that Saul: ...Yeah well say we do all that..uh..were just supposed to walk out of there with $150,000,000 in cash on us, without getting stopped? Danny: Yeah Saul: Oh, ok. Rusty: [To Danny] Tell me this is not about screwing the guy that's screwing your wife. Danny: Ex-wife. Linus: Smash and grab job, huh? Rusty: Slightly more complicated than that. Linus: Well -yeah. Basher: It will be nice working with proper villains again! Linus: Apparently, he's got a record longer than my... well, it's long. Danny: You gotta walk before you crawl. Rusty: Reverse that. Rusty: What's with the orange? Saul: My doctor says I need vitamins. Rusty: So why don't you just take vitamins? [Describing Terry Benedict] Reuben: He'll kill you, then he'll go to work on you. Topher Grace: Hey guys! Hey guys! Check this... all... reds! Parole Board Member #2: What we are trying to determine, Mister Ocean, is why you decided to commit this crime, or why you got caught this time. Danny: My wife left me. I got upset. I fell into a self-destructive pattern. Parole Board Member #3: If released, do you see yourself falling into a similar pattern? Danny: She already left me once. I don't think she'd do it again just for kicks. Danny: How's your wife? Bruiser: Pregnant again. Danny: Well, that happens. Danny: I'm not sure what four nines does, but the ace, I think, is pretty high. [Discussing possible candidates for their crew] Danny: Phil Torenteen... Rusty: Dead. Danny: No kidding. On the job? Rusty: Skin cancer. Danny: Send flowers? Rusty: Dated his wife for a while. Reuben: You're Bobby Caldwell's kid...from Chicago. It's nice there, do you like it? Linus: Yeah. Reuben: That's wonderful.
