• [Miller punches Ubu Pearl] 

  Ubu Pearl : I give you a thing... make your heart forget to beat! Your blood boil in your veins! You die... you die!

  Fred Miller : What happens if you die first?

  Ubu Pearl : [smiling]  I *still* gonna kill you!

• Ubu Pearl : I put a curse on you!

  Xavier : Believe me, I already got a curse on me.

• Xavier : [sees a large chest]  What's in here?

  Ubu Pearl : Why don't you open it and find out?

  [Xavier does, lifting a fetish - beneath which is a venomous snake! It hisses and lunges at him. He jumps back, and Ubu Pearl starts laughing] 

  Xavier : You're gonna get in trouble fucking with me, Guma.

  [She only laughs louder] 

• Ubu Pearl : You try to come in here, I fight you!

  Xavier : You fight me, I arrest you.

  Ubu Pearl : You can't arrest me. I don't do nothing.

  Xavier : [leans down and lowers his voice]  You think I'm joking, Guma?

  [She moves aside]
