• Gloria : [after Dynamite kills a would-be assasin in a donut suit]  How did you know?

  Black Dynamite : Because donuts don't wear alligator shoes.

• Honey Bee : Black Dynamite, you ain't got to worry about Gloria. She gonna be safe in here. I been keeping the girls up on their kung fu like you told me to. Now, they find her up in here, we will fricassee they honky asses.

  Gloria : Dynamite, are you sure about this? Maybe we should call the police.

  Black Dynamite : No, Mama. You can bet your sweet ass and half a titty whoever put that hit on you already got the cops in their back pocket. You be cool, Mama. Bee here will keep you tight and out of sight. I'm gonna shake the tree from the roots and rake up the fruits, rip it up out of the ground, find out what's going down. Don't worry about tomorrow, Mama, because tonight...

  Euphoria : Dynamite's gonna make everything all right.

  Black Dynamite : Euphoria, shut the fuck up! I know that was you! I ain't even gotta look! I should send your ass back to Crenshaw Pete with his hot-ass coat hangers, bitch. Would you like that?

  [Euphoria shakes her head in fear and walks away. There is a long silence between Black Dynamite and Gloria] 

  Gloria : Black Dynamite, I know that we just met, but somehow I feel that I can trust you. I'll be waiting here till you come to get me.

  [Kisses Black Dynamite] 

  Gloria : Thank you for saving my life.

  Black Dynamite : You be cool, Little Mama. I'll be back before too long.

• Black Dynamite : Say, Mama, you're gonna have to work on your delivery if you wanna take on Congressman James. The shame is, half these people don't know what y'all talking about, but at least they can put his to a beat.

  Gloria : So what do you do to make a difference? Do you march? Do you vote? Oh, let me guess. You're one of those Tom Slick brothers that think you can get by on good looks, a wink and a smile, huh?

  Black Dynamite : I don't know about Tom Slick, but thank you for the compliments.

  Gloria : That's not what I meant. Not that I think you have good looks- I mean, you know these guys with their...

  Black Dynamite : Winks and smiles?

  Gloria : Yeah.

  [Black Dynamite winks at Gloria] 

  Gloria : What about the smile?

  Black Dynamite : [not smiling]  I am smiling.

  [Gloria walks away] 

• Black Dynamite : First Lady, I'm sorry I pimp-slapped you into that china cabinet. I used excessive force. Oftentimes, I cross the line, but I try to do so in the name of what's right. Most of the time, the ends justifies the means. But in this case, I feel like I betrayed my own code of ethics. And for that, sugar, I apologize.

  Patricia Nixon : But I shot at you. I tried to kill you, Black Dynamite.

  Black Dynamite : This is true, but you did not connect. You shot a plate. Had you connected, pimp-slapping you into that china cabinet might have been justified. But I feel I crossed the line. And for that, please accept my apology.

  Patricia Nixon : I do. I do, it's just... oh, Black Dynamite, you're so righteous.

  Black Dynamite : This is also true. Because whenever there's injustice,

  [stands up] 

  Black Dynamite : wrongs to be...

  [Gloria suddenly appears and embraces Black Dynamite] 

  Gloria : Oh, Black Dynamite!

  Patricia Nixon : [Tugging Black Dynamite's pants]  Go on, honey.

  Black Dynamite : [Pulls out his handgun and points it straight ahead]  Because whenever there's injustice, wrongs to be righted,

  [as Gloria sits down, holding Black Dynamite's left leg] 

  Black Dynamite : innocents to be defended, Black Dynamite will be there, delivering ass-whuppings. and I will not hesitate to lay the hammer down on any clown that comes around.

  [Pulls out his nunchucks] 

  Black Dynamite : Because if they wanna fight, they best come see me, because I'm Black Dynamite.

  [Pat Nixon proceeds to approach Black Dynamite and hold his right leg] 

• Gloria : I think I should be going.

  Black Dynamite : I think you'll be safer if you stay here tonight.

  Gloria : Oh, you do, do you? I hope you don't think you're going to get any of this cookie. Cause if I offered you some of this cookie, this cookie might kill you. And don't think that just because we've been frolicking in the park that you've got this deal closed. Cause it takes a lot...

  Black Dynamite : See here. Now you can hit the sheets or the streets, it don't make me no nevermind. That's your bag baby. You can go, or you can come. Can you dig it?
