Oscar : Sykes, shut up! SHUT UP!
Sykes : Hey, that's good. That's good, I like that! Shut up, Lino! Ha! Shut up. Oh, kid, he wants to talk to you.

Sykes : Yeah, he's right here.
Oscar : [Sykes gives shellphone to Oscar] Hello?
Don Lino : [on phone with Oscar] Shut up? Shut up? You don't tell *me* shut up, I tell *you* shut up!
Don Lino : [hears phone dialing]
Don Lino : What?
Luca : Hi, how you doing? I'll have a large pie, everything on it, anchovies, meatballs, mushrooms...
Don Lino : Luca!

Don Lino : [shouts] Get off the phone!
Luca : But I'm hungry.
[hangs up]
Don Lino : [sighs] My guys are coming for you, Sharkslayer. They're going to tear you fin from fin!

Sykes : Now I have to pay Don Lino protection, so everything you owe me, you owe him!
Oscar : How do you figure that?
Sykes : Simple - the food chain!
[Pulls out chart]
Sykes : On top there's Don Lino, there's me, there's regular fish...
Oscar : And that's me!
Sykes : No. There's plankton, there's single-celled amoebas...
Oscar : And then me!
Sykes : I'm getting there, I'm getting there... There's coral, there's rocks, there's whale poop, and then there's you.
Oscar : That's messed up.

Don Lino : I tell you what's what, and what?
Sykes : What?
Don Lino : What what?
Sykes : What what nothin'. You said what first.
Don Lino : I didn't say what first.
Sykes : You said "and then what?' and I said "what?'
Don Lino : No, I said "What, what?" as in "What, what?"
[pause]
Sykes : ...You said what first.

Sykes : [on the phone] That's right, Lino! The Shark Slayer hired me as his agent! So I'm now, what I like to call, UNTOUCHABLE! And another thing - from now on you're gonna start paying ME protection!

Ernie : [on the phone] Syke's Whale Wash! You get a whale of a wash and the price... eh... is really, really low, considering how good the wash is.
Sykes : It's "oh my gosh!" "You get a whale of a wash, and the price, oh my gosh!"
Ernie : Got it!
[the phone rings, and Ernie answers it]
Ernie : Whale wash!
Bernie : Rhymes with gosh!
[both laugh]
Sykes : [chasing the brothers off] Get out of here, you two! Go be useless someplace else!
-
Sykes : Ernie! Bernie! I want you to find the deepest, darkest hole in the ocean, and when you do, dig deeper and put him in it!

Sykes : [on the phone, while watching Oscar slay Lenny on TV] I don't think you understand how huge my client is. Turn on your TV right now!
Sykes : [still on phone and Oscar has been eaten by Lenny] Turn off the TV! Turn off your TV!
Sykes : [still on phone and Oscar escapes Lenny's mouth] Turn on your TV! What are you doing turning off your TV? Turn it back on!

Sykes : Who's your Puff Daddy? Who takes care of you, huh?
