Dennis:
I bet this thing won't even start.

George LeBay:
She'll start. [Holds up some keys] You'll need these.

[Arnie and Dennis look out the open passenger door, at the old man standing near the car.]

Arnie:
How much do you want for her? Whatever it is, it's not enough.

Dennis:
Jesus, Arnie.

LeBay:
Sonny, you ever owned a car before?

Dennis:
Yeah, he owns a Mustang-

Arnie:
No. Just got my license.

LeBay:
Name's George LeBay.

Arnie:
Arnie Cunningham. What are you asking?

LeBay:
[Gives Arnie the keys] Start her up.

Arnie:
Really?

[LeBay nods. Arnie sits back down behind the wheel, and the Plymouth starts on the first try.]

LeBay:
Her name's Christine.

Arnie:
I like that.

Dennis:
Come on Arnie, we gotta get goin', huh?

LeBay:
My a**hole brother bought her back in September '57. That's when you got your new model year, in September. Brand-new, she was. She had the smell of a brand-new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world. 'Cept maybe for p*ssy. When he got her, she had six miles on the odometer. Goddamn roller when through hell and back with Christine.

Dennis:
If your brother likes this car so much, why is he selling it?

LeBay:
Cause he's stone-cold dead, that's why. Died six weeks ago.
