• Ali Rose : Where I come from friends don't chew on each others earlobes!

  Marcus : Aren't you glad you left?

• Ali Rose : Oh wow... L.A. looks gorgeous from up here.

  Marcus : That view cost me three times what the house did. See that strip mall down there?

  Ali Rose : You own that too?

  Marcus : No. I own everything above it.

  Ali Rose : There is nothing above it.

  Marcus : Exactly.

  Ali Rose : [sardonically]  So you own air.

  Marcus : Air rights. The guy that owns the strip mall ran into some money issues, almost had to sell. Whoever he sold it to would've put up a huge tower. So I bought the air rights. Now, no one can ever build above one storey.

  Ali Rose : Well, aren't you clever.

  Marcus : Mall guy gets to keep his property, I get to keep the second best view in L.A.

  Ali Rose : What's the first?

  Marcus : [gazes silently and steadily at Ali, while sipping wine] 

  Ali Rose : [rolls eyes]  Ugh... How many girls have you used that line on?

  Marcus : None ever who called me on it.

• Marcus : You know, not that I give a shit, but why is it that you want my club so badly?

  Marcus : I like it. When I see something I like, I have to have it. Been that way since I was a kid.

  Tess : That must have made you very popular in the sandbox.

  Marcus : [grins]  I did okay.

• Marcus : Wow. I can't believe Tess has you buried in the kick line.

  Ali Rose : She didn't know I sang.

  Marcus : Well, you certainly can. And you are way too good to be doing it here.

• Ali Rose : Wait a minute...

  [incredulously] 

  Ali Rose : You had to make an appearance at your own party?

  Marcus : Would've been rude not to, right?

• Marcus : Remember, you got that balloon payment due on the first.

  Tess : [annoyed, to Vince]  Did you also tell him I have a tattoo on my ass?

  Vince : [earnestly]  No... it's business.

  Marcus : I don't think you're gonna get another opportunity like this. So take it.

  Tess : [after some contemplation, then firmly]  No.

  Vince : [quickly, to Marcus]  She means not now.

  Tess : No, no. "Not now" means not now, Vince. "No" means no. Marcus, I don't care what you're offering. My club is not for sale.
