  Rick Santoro : See where your hand is? That's a felony.

• Rick Santoro : This is fight night and I am the king.

• Commander Kevin Dunne : This isn't a beach town anymore. It's a sewer.

  Rick Santoro : But it's my sewer, Jiminy, and I love it. I kick around about six square blocks. Everybody knows me. I got the whole town wired. Someday, if I manage to get my face on TV a few times, maybe I'll run for mayor or something, but that's as far as I want to go. Because I was made for this sewer, baby,

  Rick Santoro : Oh, what the hell. At least I got to be on TV.

• Mickey Alter : I think it would show more respect if you address my client as "Mr. Tyler".

  Rick Santoro : I'll call him "Mr. T"! The night he beat Rocky Balboa, if he wants.
