Louis Tully Quotes in Ghostbusters II (1989)

Louis Tully: Your Honor, ladies and gentleman of the audience, I don't think it's fair to call my clients frauds. Sure, the blackout was a big problem for everybody. I was trapped in an elevator for two hours and I had to make the whole time. But I don't blame them. Because one time, I turned into a dog and they helped me. Thank you.

[the courtroom is in bewildered silence]

Egon: Very good, Louis. Short, but pointless.

Judge Wexler: [in the middle of persecuting the Ghostbusters he was attacked by the ghosts of two murderers he sentenced to the chair] You got to do something! Help me!

Ray: Don't talk to me; talk to my attorney.

Louis Tully: And that's me! My guys are still under a judicial mistrangement order... that blue thing I got from her! They could be exposing themselves!

Peter Venkman: And you don't want us exposing ourselves!

[Louis Tully is the Ghostbusters' defense lawyer]

Louis Tully: I think you guys are making a big mistake. I do mostly tax law and probate stuff occasionally. I got my law degree at night school.

Ray: Well, that's fine, Louis. We got arrested at night.

[Wexler, Louis, Peter, Ray, and Egon all watch the prosecuting attorney being carried by one of the Scoleri brothers outside the courtroom]

Judge Wexler: [wailing] Ohhh...

Peter Venkman: You're next, bubbles.

Judge Wexler: [screams] ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I rescind the order! Case dismissed!

Louis Tully: Hooray, we won the case!

Judge Wexler: Now do something!

Janine Melnitz: It is really a very nice place. Needs a woman's touch.

Louis Tully: [closing the door to Oscar's room] Shh. Bedtime.

Janine Melnitz: You are so great with kids.

Louis Tully: Oh, thanks, I practiced with my hamster.

Janine Melnitz: [holding what it looks like a crystal ball in her hands] So, you live alone?

Louis Tully: I used to have a roommate, but my mom moved to Florida.

Janine Melnitz: Why don't you come here and sit with me?

Louis Tully: Okay.

[he moves to the couch Janine is sitting]

Louis Tully: So, you want to play Boggle or Super Mario Bros.?

Janine Melnitz: No. I think motherhood is a very natural instinct.

Louis Tully: So the 7 little dwarves had a limited partnership in a small mining operation. And one day a beautiful princess came to live with them. And they bartered housekeeping services for room and board, which was a real good deal for them because they didn't have to withhold social security or income tax or nothin', which you're really not supposed to do, you see, but for the purpose of the story, I think it's okay.

Judge Wexler: [Running from the Scolari Bros. and pounding on the door, then grabs ray by his suit jacket] You gotta do something, help me!

Ray: Don't talk to me, talk to my attorney.

Louis Tully: That's me. My guys are still under a judicial restraining order. That blue thing I got from her, they can be exposing themselves.

Peter Venkman: And you don't want us exposing ourselves.

Louis Tully: Give me a break, we're both lawyers!

[at Dana's apartment, Louis and Janine watch the movie "The Lady from Shanghai" on TV]

Janine Melnitz: Is, like, she the killer or what?

Louis Tully: No. That's Rita Hayworth. She was married to Citizen Kane while they were doing this thing. Then right after they finished, she dumped him for some polo player. I don't why beautiful girls love horses so much. Do you love horses?

Judge Wexler: [At the Ghostbusters' trial] Before we begin this trial, I want to make one thing very clear: The law does not recognize the existence of ghosts, and I don't believe in them either. So I don't wanna hear a lot of malarkey about goblins, spooks, and demons. We're gonna stick to the facts in this case. Leave the ghost stories to the kiddies, understood?

Winston: Wow. Sounds like a pretty open-minded guy, huh?

Egon: Yeah, they call him "The Hammer."

Ray: What can we do? It's all in the hands of our lawyer now.

Louis Tully: I think you guys are making a big mistake. I do mostly tax law and some probate stuff occasionally. I got my law degree at night school.

Ray: Well, that's fine, Louis. We got arrested at night.

Louis Tully: [waits at the bus stop only to find Slimer is driving the bus] Oh, it's you.

Louis Tully: [Slimer offers Louis to come aboard the bus] Okay, but I didn't know you had your license.
