Harry Canyon : [after the redhead told him about why her father was killed] I didn't know whether to believe her or not. Something inside me told me it was a sucker player.
Girl (segment "Harry Canyon") : Harry... can I sleep with you?
[takes off her clothes]
Harry Canyon : Yeah. Sure.
[the redhead climbs into his bed and they have sex]
Harry Canyon : Sucker play or not, I must have turned her on somethin' fierce. 'Cause this dame was goin' for broke. Or maybe it was her first time with a New Yorker, I dunno. Anyway, nothing can beat good old American know-how. And I was givin' this broad "The Stars and Stripes Forever".

Harry Canyon : [voiceover] The U.N. Building. What a joke! They turned it into low rent housing. It's a dump.
-
Harry Canyon : [about the redhead] Pretty but dumb. Even though she was gonna kill me, I kinda felt sorry for her. She was okay, just a little greedy. As for me, I put it down as a two-day ride with one hell of a tip.

Desk Sergeant : Before you go any further, pal, I gotta tell ya it's cash up front. A thousand bucks a day for a full investigation, another thou' if the assailant is caught. Do you understand?
Harry Canyon : Yeah. Hey, here's a dollar. Thanks for nothin'.
Desk Sergeant : Think you can do better?... Punk.
