Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Joey Ice Cream : [narrating]  Okay, you remember Jenny Riley right? She found something interesting, frozen hamburgers in the oven. Mr. Riley said he didn't do it. Strange.

• Joey Ice Cream : [narrating]  Me, I've always believed honesty is best served cold.

• Joey Ice Cream : [narrating]  See, here's the problem. Always trying to help people? It'll kill you. I mean it's worse than a disease. Tommy Donnelly was just beginning to figure that out.

• Tommy Donnelly : Where's Jimmy?

  Joey Ice Cream : I don't know.

  Tommy Donnelly : Do you want your ass kicked?

  Joey Ice Cream : He's in the basement with Kevin.

  Joey Ice Cream : About the same as Kevin, except I won a bet once.

  Kevin Donnelly : What do you want, a smack!

  Joey Ice Cream : I'm just saying.

  Kevin Donnelly : This guy Whitey I used to bet with.

  Joey Ice Cream : Oh, Whitey's a sleazebag.

  Jimmy Donnelly : Worse than you?

  Joey Ice Cream : Yeah, maybe.

• Joey Ice Cream : [voice over narrating]  Kevin introducing Jimmy to Whitey was gonna result in one of the most gruesome and violent deaths the neighborhood had ever seen. I mean what did Kevin know. He was only trying to help. Was Whitey gonna kill Jimmy or was Jimmy gonna kill Whitey?

  Man Questioning Joey : [voice over]  So who killed who?

  Joey Ice Cream : [voice over]  When?

• Joey Ice Cream : [narrating voice over]  And even though Jenny had told Tommy she didn't need his help, when it came to Jenny, Tommy just didn't know how not to try.

• [last lines] 

  Joey Ice Cream : [after closing credits]  So guys anything else I can help you guys with? I'm here to serve.

  Man Leaving Cell : You got that right.
