BEST QUOTES FROM
THE GAUNTLET




SHOCKLEY: On a scale of ten, I'd have to give her a two. And that's only because I've never seen a one before.


SHOCKLEY: You see, we've got a problem, you and me. We don't like each other much, but we have to take a trip together. Now you can come along peacefully or you can be a pain in the ass. But I'm warning you, you mess around and I'll put the cuffs on you. You talk dirty, I gag you. If you run, I'll shoot you. My name's Shockley, and we've got a plane to catch. Now let's go.


SHOCKLEY: What's your detail?

CONSTABLE: You know you're compounding your problem, kidnapping an officer of the law, don't you?

SHOCKLEY: (Pointing gun closer to his face) I said what's your detail, cowboy?


SHOCKLEY: Alright, you mother-jumpers, this is a bust! Alright, everybody up against their bike. Ball's in your pockets. Come on! Come on! (A biker jumps Shockley, and Shockley knocks him down and shoots the gas tank of his bike.)

BIKER 1: Son of a bitch!

SHOCKLEY: The next turkey who tries that, I'm gonna shoot him, stuff him and stick an apple in his ass. Any takers? You? You? (pointing gun at bikers) You? You?

BIKER 1: Hey man, you can't do this without a warrant.

SHOCKLEY: The man says I need a warrant, huh?

BIKERS: Yeah, that's right.

SHOCKLEY: Well, the man don't know jack shit! Now anybody here know more about the law than me? Any lawyers here? Any lawyers want to tell me why I don't need a warrant?

BIKER 1: Hey man, why don't you get off our case.

SHOCKLEY: You with the fucking hair! You look smart. Why don't you tell me why I'm entitled to come in here anytime I please. (Pause) Reasonable what?

BIKER 2: Reasonable suspicion?

SHOCKLEY: Exactly! Reasonable suspicion. I can go anywhere I please if I have reasonable suspicion. Now if I have suspicion a felony's been committed, I can just walk right in here anytime I feel like it because I've got this badge, I got this gun, and I got the love of Jesus right here in my pretty, green eyes.


BIKER 1: Hey man, this is our choppers.

SHOCKLEY: (Pointing gun at him) This is my gun, Clyde.


SHOCKLEY: Tell him I know why he picked me for the job. Tell him he was wrong. Tell him I'm coming for him and I'm gonna nail his ass to the wall.


MALLY: You don't even know if I'm good in bed or not.

SHOCKLEY: I'll just take that on faith.


SHOCKLEY: Nag, nag, nag!
