Adult Contestant Quotes in Adventureland (2009)

James Brennan: Ladies and gentlemen, put down your mint juleps. Horses are all at the starting gate. Okay, and they're off! And Red bolts out of the gate, taking an early lead! But look out! Here comes Green, issuing a challenge from the outside lane. Green runs well on a muddy track, folks, so today's conditions might give him a slight edge. And Yellow is dead last! What a dissapointment after Yellow's strong showing at Saratoga last spring. Wait! Look out! Wait a second! Out of nowhere, Orange breaks ahead of the pack, and now, in the backstretch, Orange and Green. Orange and Green, and Orange takes it by a nose! Green places and Red shows. Please come to the window to collect your winnings!

James Brennan: Huh?

Adult Contestant: What window? There's a window?

James Brennan: Uh, no. No, there's not. Here you go.

[gives the man his prize]

James Brennan: Congratulations, sir.

[Em stares at him, puzzled, but also clearly entertained. James notices her, now embarrassed]

James Brennan: I'm new.
