Car Wash Quote

Lonnie: Mr. B, about Abdullah... I'm really sorry about Abdullah. I know he's really wired up. I wish you'd think about giving him another chance.
Mr. B: I gave him a thousand chances. That's it! I don't want that belligerent trouble maker around my car wash anymore.
Lonnie: Mr. B, the man is just confused. He really is.
Mr. B: Lonnie, now is not the time.
Lonnie: Mr. B, every week I keep trying to talk to you, and every week you keep telling me "now is not the time". I've been working for you for over a year now. When is it gonna be time?
Mr. B: Look, I don't want to talk to you anymore about Duane! Okay?
Lonnie: Okay, let's don't talk about "Duane". Let's talk about me. I got to have more money, Mr. B. And I can't make it on what your payin' me right now. I've got two children to raise all by myself.
Mr. B: Lonnie, I can't. That Blue Bird Car Wash down the street is driving me out of business...
Lonnie: Mr. B, I keep telling you, you've got a big lot here! If you organize this thing right and spend a little money here and there, you could be making twice as much as you are now!
Mr. B: Lonnie, I know you've got ideas. You've got ideas. Don't I always pay you extra for opening and closing? [shaking his head with frustration and disgust, Lonnie walks out]
