• Cullen Crisp : [holding Dominic at gunpoint]  Kimble!

  Detective John Kimble : He's not your hostage; he's your son.

  Cullen Crisp : Drop it. On the floor.

  Detective John Kimble : You want to do this to your own son?

  Cullen Crisp : Drop it. I'm losing it. Hurry.

  Detective John Kimble : [puts his gun down]  Okay. Now why don't you let the boy go?

  Cullen Crisp : The boy is mine. He's *my* boy. You get your own goddamn family!

  [as Crisp raises his gun to shoot Kimble, the ferret bursts out of Dominic's shirt and bites Crisp's neck, spoiling his aim and causing him to shoot Kimble in the leg and lose his grip on Dominic] 

  Joyce : Dominic, run!

  [Dominic scrambles out of the way, Kimble drops to the floor, snatches up his gun and shoots Crisp dead] 

• Joyce : You know, kindergarten is like the ocean. You don't want to turn your back on it.

• Joyce : Cullen.

  Cullen Crisp : [holding Dominic hostage]  Rachael. Good, just what I need.

  Joyce : Please, Cullen, let him go.

  Cullen Crisp : How the hell you get out of here?

  Joyce : Stop. You're scaring him!

  Cullen Crisp : He's scared? Of course he's scared. You told him all these lies about me, my son doesn't even know me because of you.

  Joyce : Please, please, don't do this.

  Cullen Crisp : I'm his father. You stole him from me.

  Joyce : Please, let him go.

  [reaches for Dominic] 

  Cullen Crisp : Don't touch him!

  [punches Joyce in the face; Dominic screams and runs away] 

  Cullen Crisp : Dominic, I didn't want to. She made me do it. Everything's gonna be okay, Dominic. We'll start a whole new family.

• Joyce : Kindergarten is like the ocean; you don't want to turn your back on it.
