Rino Romano: Ian MacDonald

Quotes 

• Fraser : [borrowing Ray's car]  Ray, this is silly. How are you going to get to Florida?

  Ray Vecchio : I'll fly. It'll be worth the six hundred bucks to get rid of you.

  Ian MacDonald : Are you aware that the gas tank in this particular make of car explodes on impact?

  Ray Vecchio : You wanna ride in the trunk?

  Fraser : Ray, I appreciate this offer, I really do. But you have some sort of special bond with this vehicle. And I'm not saying I understand it, but I do respect it.

  Ray Vecchio : Shut up before I change my mind. Now, in the care and operation of this vehicle, there is one thing to remember and hold above all else. Never, I repeat, never use the lighter. Of all the original parts in this car, it was the most difficult to replace. It took me seven years to find that lighter, and since I've owned it, it's never been depressed.

  Fraser : Then how do you know it works?

  Ray Vecchio : I know in my soul. Do not adjust the passenger seat, open up the glove box, or use anything other than the preset radio buttons.

  Fraser : I'll take good care of your car, Ray.

• Ian MacDonald : Okay, you want the real truth? Here it is. Those guys are part of the Canadian mob.

  Ray Vecchio : There's no such thing!

  Fraser : On the contrary, Ray, organized crime is a growing problem in Canada.

  Ray Vecchio : Oh, all right, so what are we talking about here? Conspiracy to commit jaywalking? Organized littering?

  Ian MacDonald : The guy in the hat? Danny 'The Bull' Brock. One of his guys stiffed him on an account, so he took him back into an alley and shot him eight times!

  Ray Vecchio : Yeah, now was that one time with eight bullets, or eight separate times? 'Cause in America, after the third trip down the same alley, we start to get a little suspicious.

• Ray Vecchio : Alright, MacDonald. You wanna tell us who wants you dead excluding the immediate occupants of this car?

  Ian MacDonald : You wouldn't believe me.

  Ray Vecchio : That, I believe!
