“I think we should break up,” I told him.“Jesus, you’re a pain in the ass,” he muttered and went back to his book.“Seriously, Vance.”“Shut up, Jules,” he said without taking his eyes from his book.”

“Jules’s eyes turned to Vance. “I’ll go somewhere.”“No,” Vance replied.“I’ll go somewhere safe,” Jules went on.Vance got close to Jules and put his hand on her belly. “You think I’m missin’ a minute of this Princess, think again.”I swallowed hard, hard.“Then keep me safe,” Julies whispered.”

“Jesus Christ," he muttered to the ceiling. "All those times I sat in the office and laughed my ass off at stories of Lee, Eddie, Hank and Vance. They should have fuckin' medals.”

I just was offering moral support.”“Shut up, Ally!” Indy shouted out the open passenger side window.“I will not shut up! I’m not taking the fall for this one!” Ally shouted back.”

"He’s just a doctor.""Carmine?""Yeah?""Shut up."Carmine decided then he should probably shut up.”
