Quote from Happy Gilmore


(In the cockpit of the plane)

Oveur: Joey, we have something here for our special visitors. Would you like to have it?
Joey: Thank you. Thanks a lot!
Oveur: Sure. You ever been in a cockpit before?
Joey: No sir, I've never been up in a plane before.
Oveur: You ever seen a grown man naked?
Murdock: Do you want me to check the weather, Clarence?
Oveur: No, why don't you take care of it? Joey, you ever . . . hang around the gymnasium?
Elaine: We'd better get back now, Joey.
Oveur: No! Joey can stay here for a while if he'd like.
Joey: Could I?
Elaine: Okay, if you don't get in the way.
Murdock: (on radio) Flight two-zero-niner to Denver radio. Climbing to cruise at forty-two thousand. We'll report again over Lincoln. Over and out.
Joey: Wait a minute! I know you! You're Kareem Abdul-Jabbar! You play basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers.
Murdock: I'm sorry, son, but you must have me confused with someone else. My name is Roger Murdock. I'm the co-pilot.
Joey: You are Kareem! I've seen you play! My dad's got season tickets.
Murdock: I think you should go back to your seat now, Joey. Right, Clarence?
Oveur: No, he's not bothering anyone, let him stay here.
Murdock: All right, but just remember, (pointing to name badge)my name is Roger Murdock. I'm an airline pilot.
Joey: I think you're the greatest, but my dad says you don't work hard enough on defense. (Murdock rolls his eyes) And he says that lots of times, you don't even run downcourt. And that you don't really try, except during the playoffs.
Murdock: The hell I don't! (looks around at the others in the cockpit, then grabs Joey by his shirt and pulls him closer) Listen, kid. I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walt and Lemure up and down the court for 48 minutes. (lets go of Joey, who stands staring at Murdock with his mouth open, not moving an inch)

(long pause)

Oveur: Joey, you like movies about gladiators?
