Van McNulty: Get out of my grille, freaks.
Eric Summers: I'd watch your mouth in here if I were you.
Ian Randall: We heard about your little one-man ethnic cleansing campaign.
Van McNulty: I don't know what you're talking about.
Ian Randall: Oh, come on. You were out there picking off meteor freaks like ducks on the first day of hunting season.
Eric Summers: And now you're stuck in here with all us ducks. Quack, quack.
Ian Randall: We don't want to hurt you, Van. Believe it or not, the three of us have something in common.
Van McNulty: I seriously doubt that.
Eric Summers: Clark Kent put us all in here.
