Grogan Quotes in Romancing the Stone (1984)

Grogan: [First lines] What's it gonna be, Angelina?

Joan Wilder: [voiceover narration] It was Grogan: the filthiest, dirtiest, *dumbest* excuse for a man west of the Missouri River.

Grogan: So, you can die two ways, angel: quick like the tongue of a snake, or slower than the molasses in January.

Joan Wilder: [voiceover narration] But it was October.

Grogan: I'll kill you, goddammit, if it's the Fourth of July! Where is it? Uhh. Get over there!

Grogan: Not quite, angel.

[Angelina kills Grogan by throwing a concealed knife]

Joan Wilder: [voiceover] That was the end of Grogan... the man who killed my father, raped and murdered my sister, burned my ranch, shot my dog, and stole my Bible! But if there was one law of the west: Bastards had brothers, who seemed to ride forever.

[Jacko spots Greg and the others swimming towards them.]

Jacko: Oh.

[Lazor sounds on recording]

Matt: That is the funniest message I've ever heard.

Grogan: No book bag no deal! No book bag no deal!

Julie: Is Matt okay?

Grogan: He looks pretty good to me.

Julie: Well, does he have a girlfriend?

Grogan: No, no, no.

Julie: Cool.

Grogan: No girlfriend. He's too loyal.

Julie: What do you mean?

Grogan: Well, I think he's still married... Actually, I don't know if he's legally married. See he spent last summer in Natchez, Mississippi. Had a thing with a 12-year-old. I shouldn't be talking about this.

Julie: Twelve?

Grogan: See, they got married, and the cops found out, and, well, you know cops. That kinda ended it. They still write, though. Well, he writes. She's still learnin'. Ah, it's no big deal, you know, it's over. He's not allowed into Mississippi anymore, and she wanted to raise the kid there, and, uh, between you and me, I think that's for the best.
