Quotes 

• Sgt. Lopez : Just a word of advice, Private. You wanna ship home with all the body parts you came here with, zip your lip.

  Sam : [in Oswald's voice]  Aye-aye, Sergeant Beaner.

  Sgt. Lopez : See you on liberty, Oswald.

  Al : Sam, are you outta your mind? You can't talk to *anybody* like that, much less a marine sergeant!

  Sam : I know, Al. I know.

  Al : Then why'd you do it?

  Sam : I didn't.

  Al : Excuse me, I heard you!

  Sam : You heard the words come out of my mouth, but I didn't say 'em.

  Al : You're scaring me, Sam.

  Sam : Well, you're not alone. Maybe... maybe this has something to do with... leaping twice into the same person.

  Al : What twice?

  Sam : I leaped into Oswald in '63. At least that's what the newspapers I was holding said it was: March of '63.

  Al : Well, how'd you know you were Oswald?

  Sam : Marina was taking my picture. You know that famous picture with the rifle and, and the newspaper?

  Al : That photograph is a fake. Yeah, Oswald's face is superimposed on somebody else's body to frame him.

  Sam : But, Marina took it.

  Al : How do you know she was Marina?

  Sam : I called her Marina, and-and she called me... Alik.

  Al : Well, there you see? You weren't Oswald.

  [consults the handlink] 

  Al : All we have to do is ask Ziggy to trace the name Alik to anyone working at the CIA or the FB...

  [groans] 

  Sam : What?

  Al : Alik was the name Oswald used in Russia. And, uh, that's the name Marina used to call him.

• Sgt. Lopez : Russian? You speaking to me in Russian?

  Sam : It's just a little slip of the tongue. See, I'm, uh, I'm studying Russian and-and-and some-, sometimes it comes out.

  Sgt. Lopez : [taking and twisting Sam's nose between his fingers]  You know what I'm studying? Huh?

  Sam : The... Three Stooges?
