Favorite Quote:
Fin Shepard : I always thought it would be an earthquake that would be the end of Los Angeles.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : Or a meteor shower. Zombies even.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : Yeah.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : Black Plague. Aliens. But sharks? Come on.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : Yeah. Yeah. Go figure. My luck, sharks.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : Yeah, your luck. Sharks.<br /> <br /> Nova Clarke : Mine too.<br /> <br /> Convenience Store Clerk : Apocalypse my ass! This isn't the end of the world! Gods, they're not angry with us, the aliens aren't coming down! It's the government! With a big capital "G"! They're behind EVERYTHING! They know what we buy, they know what we eat, were we go to the bathroom. They know what kind of CHEESE I like... Pepper jack.<br /> <br /> [whispers] <br /> <br /> Convenience Store Clerk : They control it all! And the weather too! I gotta hand it to em though, SHARKS? I never saw THAT coming.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : Yeah.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : These sharks of yours have no etiquette.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : Etiquette? I thought you were Australian, not British.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : Tasmanian, buddy.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : We got to get to higher ground.<br /> <br /> George : Take the freeway. It's above street level. You take the 10 to the 405. You're almost in Beverly Hills. And there is no way the ocean has washed inland that far.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : What make you an expert on Beverly Hills, George?<br /> <br /> George : That's where I live.<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : George, if you live in Beverly Hills, why do you come all the way to the coast and drink at my bar?<br /> <br /> George : I don't know. I like the view, you know. There's the beach. There's all these scantily clad women there that pretend to like me if I buy them a drink. And there is my seat. My chair. My chair is always there.<br /> <br /> Baz Hogan : Plus you don't charge $15 a plock.<br /> <br /> George : Yeah. Plus, there is the beautiful Nova there who I am planning to marry soon. I sit around and think about it every night and day. Everywhere I go.<br /> <br /> April Wexler : What's wrong?<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : Your son wants to go into a helicopter and drop a bomb into the tornado.<br /> <br /> April Wexler : No, it's too dangerous.<br /> <br /> Nova Clarke : I'll watch his back. I'll be the bombardier.<br /> <br /> April Wexler : Then definitely not.<br /> <br /> Nova Clarke : That's a tiger shark.<br /> <br /> George : How do you know that?<br /> <br /> Nova Clarke : Shark Week! Where'd it go?<br /> <br /> George : Where DID it go?<br /> <br /> Fin Shepard : It's under the car.
