Alex Whitman Quotes:

  • Alex Whitman: You are everything I never knew I always wanted.

  • Isabel Fuentes: Alex, don't do this. There is nothing to say.

    Alex Whitman: Just wait a minute. There might be. This afternoon, I couldn't decide between a Texas burger and a tuna melt, but my life made sense, you know? And now I know exactly want I want, and my life doesn't make any sense. And I was doing fine this afternoon. I was doing great. That was me. It was me then. And now I'm with you and I don't know what happened but somewhere between the tuna melt and your aunt's tamales. I mean, I was actually worried that I'd already met the woman of my dreams at the dry cleaners or something and I was too busy to notice and you show up and I realize that's not true because you're the one. You are everything I never knew I always wanted. I'm not even sure what that means exactly, but I think has something to do with the rest of my life. And I think we should get married right now.

  • Isabel Fuentes: No. No quiero oir nada. No quiero que me digas una palabra. Estoy harta de todas tus mentiras. Eso son todo lo que me has dicho. Cobarde.

    Alex Whitman: What does that mean?

    Isabel Fuentes: It means that you are a liar and a coward. That's what it means.

    Alex Whitman: It sounded so much prettier in Spanish.

  • [at the hospital]

    Alex Whitman: Are you all right?

    Isabel Fuentes: I'm all right.

    Alex Whitman: Is the baby okay?

    Isabel Fuentes: There is no baby.

    Alex Whitman: What?

    Isabel Fuentes: Look, Alex, I've been thinking. If I hadn't been pregnant, I wouldn't have gone to your house that night and we wouldn't have gotten married. The baby was the reason for us to be together.

    Alex Whitman: That's not true.

    Isabel Fuentes: I thought it was fate, but it was just a stupid, superstitious dream, you know? There are no signs, Alex. And we're too different and we will always will be.

    Alex Whitman: So, what are you saying?

    Isabel Fuentes: I'm saying we're not meant to be together.

    Alex Whitman: No, don't do this. Not now.

    Isabel Fuentes: Alex, this is not going to work.

    Alex Whitman: Isabel, let me help you!

    Isabel Fuentes: Get out, Alex. Get out!

  • Alex Whitman: Wait a minute! You snuck out on me, and I never heard from you again. And now you just show up, tell me you're pregnant, and I'm supposed to know exactly what to do? Well, I'm sorry, but I don't know, exactly, what to do.

    Isabel Fuentes: That's the first good thing you've said all night.

  • Alex Whitman: You gamble either way. And you are just pissed that I won on the first pull instead of putting quarters into the wrong machine for the last five years.

  • Alex Whitman: [Isabel tells Alex she's pregnant] But we were only together one night.

    Isabel Fuentes: That's all it took.

    Alex Whitman: And I used a condom. Lots of them.

    Isabel Fuentes: Well, one didn't work.

    Alex Whitman: But that's it's job! It's whole purpose in life is... to work.

  • Jeff: I mean, this makes no sense at all. Why would you marry her... unless you knocked her up?

    Alex Whitman: I can't do that.

    Isabel Fuentes: Can't or won't?

    Alex Whitman: I've worked to long, too hard...

    Isabel Fuentes: To what? To share your life with someone who loves you? Who cares for you? Alex you have to be there everyday!

    Alex Whitman: What do you think I've been killing myself for?

    Isabel Fuentes: Oh come on you knew about this for a month, but you don't include me... Why are you afraid of me? Why do you alienate me from your life?

    Alex Whitman: I don't... I don't know...

    Isabel Fuentes: [sighs] Look I told you in the beginning... I have no problem raising this child on my own.

    [walks away]

    Alex Whitman: I thought we were a family...

    Isabel Fuentes: [turns around] You don't understand the concept of a family! To you it's something you put up with on national holidays! Love is a gift, Alex not an obligation.

    [turns and walks away]

    Alex Whitman: Look this is the brass ring. I've worked my entire life for this kind of opportunity and I am not gonna throw it all away just because one night I put a five dollar ring on your finger in front of Elvis as a witness!

  • Tracey Burnham: Well nobody ever plans to end up in Vegas. You just do. Kinda sneaks up on you. But it is the fastest growing economy in the US, the economy is booming, business is growing, I'm up to my neck in paperwork. Oh, but frankly, it's not a whole lotta fun. Are you are whole lotta fun Alex?

    Alex Whitman: Ah, Jeff said we might have some problems with our liquor license because of new zoning?

    Tracey Burnham: Mmmm, I'll talk to the County Supervisor for you but if I were you I'd pay more attention to the ABC investigation. They're gonna ask you all kinds of personal questions. They'd like nothing more than to catch you with your pants down.

  • Alex Whitman: Isabel, don't jump.

    Isabel Fuentes: I'm not going to kill myself, stupid. But if you come any closer, I'll throw your ass over.

  • Alex Whitman: Where are you going?

    Isabel Fuentes: You're not my favorite person right now.
