I’d slap the shit outta you. I really could.
\nColt<\/b>: And I’m open to that in a safer environment.\n
\nDan<\/strong>: But it ain’t about how hard you can hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward.
\nColt<\/b>: Nah, man! You can’t quote Rocky on me like that!\n
\n

Colt<\/b>: I’m just a boy in a neon suit, standing in front of a girl, reminding her that Notting Hill is her favorite movie. And she watches Love Actually every year of Christmas.<\/p>\n

\nJody<\/b>: I’m the director. You’re a stunt guy. We need to keep it super profesh.
\nColt<\/b>: Profesh is my middle name.
\nJody<\/b>: You said your middle name was Danger.
\nColt<\/b>: That’s my stage name.\n
\n

Colt<\/b>: I never forget a fist.<\/p>\n

\n

Jody<\/b>: You fall down, you get right back up. How far would you go for the one that you love?<\/p>\n

\nTom<\/b>: What are you gonna do for me?
\nColt<\/b>: Uh, die, I guess. Right? Is that the plan?\n
\n

Colt<\/b>:\u00a0Tom<\/b>, you need carbs! Your brain runs on glucose! For simple cognitive functions, you need them!<\/p>\n

Tom<\/b>: It’s high noon at the edge of the universe, folks. Now, we’re facing a powerful enemy. An alien species born of the worst of humanity’s traits. Well, what our enemy doesn’t see is that their demise is imminent. And the most powerful weapon in all galaxy? Love. Inside each and every one of you is a spark, baby. An ember. A goddamn fire! Love is how we will win. And even if we lose, we’re gonna die fighting for a happy ending!<\/p>\n

\n

Doone<\/b>: No offense, but I prefer cartoons. See, movies are always trying to make things real. But it’s not real. It’s a movie. It’s not meant to be real. That’s why I like cartoons. Y’see, ’cause cartoons don’t pretend to be real.<\/p>\n

\n

Jody<\/b>: That happy ever after stuff, unsubscribe me.<\/p>\n

\nColt<\/b>: I’m just a stunt guy! I’m working on Metalstorm, too!
\nIggy<\/strong>: You lie! We’re only on Metalstorm 1!
\nColt<\/b>: I meant “also!”\n
\n

Colt<\/b>: I just wanted to say that when I first got here, when you asked how I was doing, and I gave you the thumbs-up, when you were like, “That’s stunt guy bullshit,” and you’re right, it’s total clich\u00e9, but, you know, there’s a reason you don’t see the thumbs-down stunt guy. You know, it’s kind of part of our training. Right? You know, you get hit by a car, you get thrown out of a window, you get set on fire, you give the thumbs-up. But, uh, after my accident – turns out, was not an accident, by the way – I, uh… I wasn’t okay. And not because I broke my back, because I just felt like a huge… failure. And I realized that, uh… you know, I’m not invincible. Huge shocker. And I thought maybe I wasn’t so special or something, so I, uh… just figured that the thumbs-down version of me wasn’t what you got into it for, so I disappeared. But, you know, I didn’t just disappear on you. Uh… just disappeared on, on, uh, myself… too. Anyway, I’m sorry. You deserved more than that. I’m sorry.<\/p>\n

\nColt<\/b>: Y’know, honestly? It, uh, it all hurts. Getting hit by a car hurts. Being thrown out of a window hurts. Getting set on fire really hurts. But, uh… None of it ever hurt as much as not being with you.
\nJody<\/b>: Where are you?
\nColt<\/b>: Is that from a movie, or did I just make that up? It’s pretty good. You can use it, if you want.
\nDressler: There he is!
\nJody<\/b>: No, please…
\nColt<\/b>: For what it’s worth, I’m still in love with you. And I don’t think you should give up on that happy ending.
\nJody<\/b>: Colt…
\nColt<\/b>: I gotta go.\n
\nColt<\/b>: Did you just turn Jody into the sexy bacon?
\nGail<\/b>: She’s been the sexy bacon all along.\n

Martian Warrior<\/b>: I had a similar situation when I fell in love with my wife’s sister.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
