Charles Wheeler Quotes in Bandits (2001)

Charles Wheeler: Please, wherever you are, return my wife to me. Kate, if you're listening, I want you to know that I'm okay. I hope you're holding up well, I hope that these gentlemen are treating you correctly, the way you should be treated, and speaking of which, I'm going to Spain next week, so if your kidnappers would like to contact me, they can get in touch with my people, and you know who they are, and the house is waiting for you, right here, where you belong. And the house misses you, I miss you...

Walter Kenton: Beckett doesn't want to go to court he's looking for a quick tasty settlement

Bob Seidman: [to everyone] A jury might decide he has a case

Charles Wheeler: [to bob] wait a minute, he was fired for incompetence not because he has AIDS you didn't know he was sick, did you?
