Popular Dialogues

"Omer: One and two, three and four, five, hey! Iqbal Riza: What are you doing? Omer: Nothing, nothing, I'm just rehearsing some dance steps. Iqbal Riza: Oh... Omer: Look Iqbal, I am so sorry... Iqbal Riza: Stop!I don't want your pity. Does it look like I need pity? Omer: No, no, no you have far too much dignity. Iqbal Riza: If these people know nothing about talent there's not much I can do about it, is there? So let's see it. Let's see your dance steps. Omer: Oh... alright. One and two, three and four. Iqbal Riza: [Iqbal waves his hand up to Omer for him to stop] Omer: What? Iqbal Riza: Oh there's no way you're going to win this thing. Omer: I know, I fear as much. Iqbal Riza: [Iqbal sighs and looks him up and down] [Iqbal takes Omer to his stage] Iqbal Riza: Get up there, up on the stage. Omer: Are you sure? Iqbal Riza: Do it! Before I change my mind. Okay, now this is just a bass track. It's good for practicing moves too. [Iqbal turns on the stereo] Omer: Mmm. I don't like this kind of music. Iqbal Riza: It's just a bass track! It's just for rehearsal! Omer: Okay... Iqbal Riza: [Iqbal sighs] Now one problem you have is you move like a reanimated corpse in a zombie movie. Not good, you need to loosen up. Okay, come on, let's go, free form jazz dancing. Right now, immediately. Omer: Iqbal, why are you helping me? I destroyed your dream. Iqbal Riza: Yeah, you did, but that was yesterday. Today I turned a page in a new chapter in my life. I'm not sure being a performer was ever what I was really meant for. I'm more of a behind the scenes player, a puppeteer, a svengali if you will. As of today I'm your manager."

"Jessica: [Opening Lines] [after Martin receives a fax showing American Dreamz as the top rated show] Jessica: How are the numbers? Martin Tweed: Incredible. [chuckles] Martin Tweed: Absolutely incredible. Jessica: Congratulations. [pause] Jessica: I'm leaving you. [long pause] Jessica: Did you hear what I said? I'm leaving you. Martin Tweed: [still staring at the fax] Yeah, I heard. Yeah, Yeah Jessica: I'm not kidding. Martin Tweed: I know. [turns and walks toward her] Martin Tweed: Look, I think it's an excellent decision on your part. Jessica: You do? Martin Tweed: You're a fantastic person and the last year's been really great. You're beautiful. The sex has been wonderful. You're kind and supportive. You wait for me with dinner when I work late: you're amazing. And it's driving me out of my *fucking* mind. [she stares in disbelief] Martin Tweed: You know, with numbers like this, this should be the happiest day of my life and instead i have to worry about whether I make *you* happy all the time! [pause, her lip quivers] Martin Tweed: Jessica, sweetheart, you make me feel like being a better person. And I'm not a better person. I'm me. Jessica: [teary-eyed as she walks away] I feel sorry for you. Martin Tweed: Don't. I certainly don't. In fact, I envy myself deeply."
