The Waiting Game

Dan:
Who would win a fight out of Iron Man or Batman?

Iron Man.

Dan:
I reckon that... wait...

Jenny:
Because Robert Downey Jr. just eats your heart out.

But Batman's just badass. But Batman's morals is he doesn't kill people.

But neither does Iron Man.

Dan:

Jenny:
They could be brothers because they're both really just rich. Really rich.

Leigh Bird:
[about the rapist after Jacquie has been attacked again] He could've practised.

Detective Thomas Bird:
Practised on what do you think? Animals, dead things, kids, women? Women. He practises on women. That's how they do it. And he's getting braver; that's why he's got the knife now. *That's* practise.

Leigh Bird:
Well, it's not like I've any f***ing practise, you know.

Jenny:
Aren't people just the craziest.

Detective Thomas Bird:
How're ya doing?

Jacquie Delice:
You've asked me that like 6 times already.
