- David Cleveland: [to Geoffrey] I was planning to be on a plane tonight. I've got better things to do than swan around like a fairy.
- David Cleveland: [to Teller] Whatever Geoffrey has been telling you, bringing horses back from the dead is not my specialty.
- James Culham Offen: When it comes to horses, Mr. Cleveland, there's no such thing as a certainty - on or off the track.
- Geoffrey Keeble: [to Cleveland] As your immediate supervisor, I insist that you come on the trip, and I insist that you enjoy it.
- Eunice Teller: There's only one thing you have to know about horses.
- David Cleveland: What's that?
- Eunice Teller: They make damn fools out of us.
- Walt Prensala: The best things in life are free.
- David Cleveland: It's been said before.
- Walt Prensala: Yeah, by people with no money.
- [Earlier Eunice nearly shot David with his revolver when she accidentally fired it while she was drunk. Now she comes to David's bedroom in the middle of the night]
- Eunice Teller: I was thinking. Maybe we got off on the wrong foot this afternoon.
- David Cleveland: It wasn't boring.
- Eunice Teller: Harry said to tell you anything you want, I'm to make sure you get it. But under the circumstances I don't think we should take that too literally. Do you?
- David Cleveland: No.
- Eunice Teller: But maybe we could be friends.
- David Cleveland: [non-committally] Yes.
- Eunice Teller: I've got a sneaking suspicion, Cleveland, that Lynnie likes you. So let me just tell you this. If you don't treat her right, we can't be friends... because then you'll be dead.
- [she leaves]
- [David Cleveland, Walt Prensela and Lynnie Teller are planning to retrieve Chrysalis from the remote farm where Matt Clive is keeping him. David Cleveland has just been captured by Matt Clive]
- Lynnie Teller: We've got to do something.
- Walt Prensala: We've tried ignorance. We'd better try brute force.
