When Danny and his mom are in the bar rite after Danny first sees Theresa after the two drunks bring in the dead man for a drink The 2 guys danny and him mom are sitting with are talking about women. one says for danny to find a girl while he has time and the other guys say stay free. i agree 100% with that guy. HE says i dont have to answer to nobody i come and go as i please i do what i want when i want. what he is trying to say is some women try and run guys life. and women can be a real pain

My favourite lines are both from Maureen O'Hara

"Where are her breasts? Did she have some kind of an operation?"

and

"You're built like a 13 yr old boy!"

...PRICELESS!!!!

Danny - "Sometimes it's good to be a cop."

Doyle - "If I'd have gotten married, I wouldn't be where I live now."
Spatch - "In a tavern?!"
Doyle - "Free, living like a king!"
Spatch - "You live at the 'Y'!"

Sal - "You take vitamins, Tyrone?"
Tyrone - "Nah."
Sal - "I 'gotta start taking some vitamins."
Danny - "Yeah, me too!"

Danny(In front of a funeral crowd around a casket) - "YEAH!" I'm sorry, see I just got lucky in there, with a girl...not in that way...she does everybody in there, she probably did that guy there for example(pointing to casket)...I gotta go."

Theresa - "Is everything okay?"
Danny - "Yeah, I just had to check on my mom."

Danny - "You're a good lawyer, Patrick, a very good lawyer."

Patrick - "The coach says he's a natural."
Danny - "At what?"

And any of the scenes between Candy, Belushi, and the crazy guys they carry in the wagon.

Also, there are several moments I love that involve Candy's physical talents. Specifically, when Ally Sheedy stays the night at his house and Maureen O'Hara comes home unsuspected. The way Candy gets Sheedy out of the house is fantastic. Great use of his girth, and really funny mostly from the way Candy delivers his lines.

Danny down the hall standing awkwardly: 'Hello'
Rose: 'I'll be down in a minute and make you some breakfast.'
Danny: 'Ohhh that'll be nice.' tips toes toward the stairs and chuckles 'Yeahh, a little breakfast.'

Hiya

One of my favorites is at the end when Nick says, "We finally get to sleep together," when on the plane. Rose's reaction is golden.

"I won't accept her as my daughter-in-law."

Everybody stops breathing.

"I'll accept her as my daughter".

Exhale.

Excellent one yes. Also the "you can see the crack of her bum" ... er ... crack at the start.

My favorite lines, because they're funny, come during the scene where Danny is "making" dinner. When he pulls the burning bread out of the oven, in frustration he says, "Son of a BITCH" while Theresa is standing behind him laughing. Then he later says, "I just destroyed dinner."

My favorite is the "Just telling it like it is" conversation.

Danny and his brother trying on tuxedos:

"I'm supposed to feel guilty now because I want to have the same things you got? Well, Fuqq you."
