Quotes[]

  • "Next time -- if there is a next time -- watch upon whose toes you step, Nancy Drew. Watching where you step wouldn't hurt either."
  • "Rick foolishly believes acting is a status symbol not an art form. He's a ladder climber who'll use anyone to crawl his way to the top - a ladder he's sure to fall from one of these days."
  • "And then, it hit me. A way to find El Toro's treasure and get back at the teenage snoop who ruined my life."'
  • "You fell for my performance hook, line, and sinker. Not only did I get you to find that map to Cibola, but I had you begging me to take it from you. And I had you believing there were mysterious 'other people' on the island, didn't I. Unfortunately, there's nobody here but me. Heck, I even got you to undo the damage those infernal monkeys did to my boat. I was brilliant!
  • "Enough! Words, words, words! You will soon see that I am a man of action! I'll come down for the final closeup- I'm going to write you two out of the script forever! So sorry about your short lived career Ms. Drew!"                                                                                                                                                      
  • "The fella couldn't act his way out of a paper bag!                                                                                      
  • "I'm so sorry for our ubrupt meeting earlier. But you must understand that if I open my door to every struggling actor i'd just never get my work done."                                                                                         
  • "I must confess the man has no talent!"                                                                                                     
  • "I did! For several long years. But they were well spent."
  • "I'm afraid my standards are rather high for most people."
