[as shark approaches Brody] Martin Brody: Alright ya big bastard! Come on! I got somethin' for ya now! Martin Brody: Oh, Hendricks, good! Right this way. Excuse us, please. I want you to come in here and, er, check out this 908. Hendricks: What the hell's a 908? I've never heard of a 908! Martin Brody: 908 means get me outta there! Mrs. Taft: Good morning. Selling some more of the good life? Ellen Brody: Oh, yeah... Piece of this, piece of that - it all adds up. Mrs. Taft: Your husband's been here all morning. What's he doing? Ellen Brody: His job. Ellen Brody: That's your third smoke already! Martin Brody: With coffee! Ellen Brody: Try a donut. Phil Fogarty: I can't watch a ball game anymore, I can't watch the news anymore! I can't even watch a movie! All I hear is that damn kid and his damn radio going "Breaker, Breaker, Breaker"! Martin Brody: Well, I'll see what I can do, but remember, it's under federal jurisdiction. Phil Fogarty: So call the FBI! Mayor Larry Vaughn: Brody is riding his tower. Len Peterson: Oh, shit! Martin Brody: I mean, it's obvious that a big fish took a bite out of... this big fish. Dr. Elkins: This is a mammal. Martin Brody: Don't quibble with me! Is it a shark bite or isn't it? Helicopter Pilot: That you, Brody? Martin Brody: Yeah. Have you spotted those kids yet? Helicopter Pilot: Negative - I'm still down. Martin Brody: Well, you'd better get the hell up! Andy Williams: Did your mom put all this together? Mike Brody: Yeah, it's her job. Andy Williams: Did she make the punch? Mike Brody: No. Andy Williams: [Throwing it back in the bowl] Good, it's terrible!
[After Brody has been fired] Martin Brody: I'm tired... Too damn tired... Ellen Brody: You're too damn drunk. That's what you are, too damn drunk.
[Hendricks and Red are dragging the ocean in the police launch] Red: We've been over this a dozen times. Hendricks: I know, I know! Red: How much longer? Hendricks: Until we find something! Red: But I'm cold, bored... Hendricks: You're bored!
[The launch snags a power line] Red: Oh, shit! Drop it! Hendricks: Wh- What is it? Red: Drop it! It's a power line! Hendricks: Oh, terrific! Martin Brody: Better check the bite radius. Dr. Elkins: The what? Martin Brody: The shape of the mouth... Dr. Elkins: What mouth? Martin Brody: Shark's mouth. Dr. Elkins: What shark? Martin Brody: The shark that did this. Dr. Elkins: We don't know that, do we? Martin Brody: But we're here to find out! Dr. Elkins: And we will. Hendricks: I can't hear you if you're going to whisper! Tina Wilcox: ...Now I'm getting black and blue marks all over my butt, and my moms starting to get uptight about them! Martin Brody: I think we've got another shark problem. Mayor Larry Vaughn: Are you serious? Martin Brody: You bet I'm serious. Len Peterson: Brody, this is nothing! Seaweed, mud, something on the lens... Martin Brody: Lens my ass! Len Peterson: You're damn right it's your ass!
