The Bride : [ voiceover narration ] As I lay in the back of Buck's truck, trying to will my limbs out of entropy, I could see the faces of the cunts that did this to me and the dicks responsible. Members all of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad. When fortune smiles on something as violent and ugly as revenge, it seems proof like no other, that not only does God exist, you're doing His will.

Elle Driver : Hello, Bill.
Bill : What's her condition?
Elle Driver : Comatose.
Bill : Where is she?
Elle Driver : I'm standing over her right now.
Bill : That's my girl. Elle, you're gonna have to abort the mission.
Elle Driver : WHAT?
Bill : We owe her better than that.
Elle Driver : NO YOU DON'T! YOU DON'T OWE HER SHIT!
Bill : Will you keep your voice down?
Elle Driver : [ whispering ] You don't owe her shit!
Bill : May I say one thing?
Elle Driver : Speak.
Bill : Y'all beat the hell out of that woman, but you didn't kill her. And I put a bullet in her head, but her heart just kept on beatin'. Now, you saw that yourself with your own beautiful blue eye, did you not? We've done a lot of things to this lady. And if she ever wakes up, we'll do a whole lot more. But one thing we won't do is sneak into her room in the night like a filthy rat and kill her in her sleep. And the reason we won't do that thing is because... that thing would lower us. Don't you agree, Miss Driver?
Elle Driver : I guess.
Bill : Do you really have to guess?
Elle Driver : [ sighs ] No. I don't really have to guess. I know.
Bill : Come on home, honey.
Elle Driver : Affirmative.
Bill : I love you very much.
Elle Driver : I love you, too. Bye-bye.

Earl McGraw : Well, give me the gory details, Son Number One.
Edgar McGraw : It's a goddamn massacre, Pop. They wiped out the whole wedding party, execution-style.
Earl McGraw : Give me a figure.
Edgar McGraw : Nine dead bodies. And we're talking the whole she-bang: bride, groom, reverend, reverend's wife... hell, they even shot that old colored fella that plays the organ.
Earl McGraw : It would appear someone objected to this union and wasn't able to hold their peace.

Earl McGraw : Well, this is definitely the work of professionals. I'd guess-timate Mexican Mafia hit squad. Four, maybe five strong.
Edgar McGraw : How can you tell?
Earl McGraw : Well, a sure and steady hand did this. This ain't no squirrelly amateur. This is the work of a salty dog. You can tell by the cleanliness of the carnage. Now a kill-crazy rampage though it may be, all the colors are kept within the lines. If you was a moron, you could almost admire it.

Earl McGraw : Who's the bride?
Edgar McGraw : Don't know. The name on the marriage certificate is "Arlene Machiavelli." That's a fake. We've all just been calling her "The Bride" on account of the dress.
Earl McGraw : You can tell she was pregnant. Man'd have to be a mad dog to shoot a goddamn good-looking gal like that in the head. Look at her. Hay-colored hair, big eyes. She's a little blood-spattered angel.

Buck : Price is $75 a fuck, my friend. You getting your freak on, or what?
Trucker : Oh yeah, boy. [ gives Buck the money ]
Buck : Now here are the rules. Rule Number One: no punching her. The nurse comes in tomorrow and she got a shiner or less some teeth, jig's up. So, no knuckle sandwiches under no circumstances. And by the way, this little cunt's a spitter. It's a motor-reflex thing. But spit or not, no punching. Now, are we absolutely, positively clear on Rule Number One?
Trucker : Yeah.
Buck : Good. Now, Rule Number Two: no monkey bites, and no hickeys. In fact, no leaving no marks of any kind on her. After that, it's all good, buddy. Now, her plumbing down there don't work no more, so feel free to come in her all you want. Keep the noise down, try not to make a mess. I'll be back in twenty. [ Buck starts to leave, but snaps his fingers and turns back ]
Buck : Oh, shit! By the way, not every time but sometimes this chick's cooch will get drier than a bucket of sand. If she's dry, just lube up with this, [ tosses him a jar labeled "VasaLube" ]
Buck : and you'll be good to go. Bon Appetite, good buddy.

Copperhead : Look, if I could go back in a machine, I would. But I can't. All can tell you is that I'm a different person now.
The Bride : Oh great. I don't care.
Copperhead : Be that as it may, I know I don't deserve your mercy or your forgiveness. However, I beseech you for both on behalf of my daughter.
The Bride : Bitch, you can stop right there. Just because I have no wish to murder you in front of your daughter doesn't mean that parading her around in front of me will inspire sympathy. You and I have unfinished business. And not a goddamned thing you've done in the subsequent four years including getting knocked up is going to change that.
Copperhead : So when do we do this?
The Bride : It all depends. When do you want to die? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?
Copperhead : How about tonight, bitch?
The Bride : Splendid. Where?
Copperhead : There's a baseball diamond where I coach Little League about a mile from here. We meet there around in the morning dressed all in black. Your hair in a black stocking. And we have us a knife fight. We won't be bothered. Now... I have to fix Nikki's cereal.
