- Child: Hey. You don't have a watch on. How you gonna know when fifteen minutes are up?
- Billy Jack: Well you better hope that I'm a good guesser, huh?
- Vicky Barrington: Oh--Why do you call him "Crabs"?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: 'Cause he's got 'em. Ever since he caught the disease from some broad he's been crawlin' with 'em. He's okay, though, he's a good cat.
- Vicky Barrington: Oh, I'm sure.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Yeah, Fred, you've... got enough of those at home already, haven't you?
- Deputy Fred: I'll tell you what, faggot. You come down to the jail to visit me sometime. Alone. We'll lock ourselves in the cell together and see who comes out with the key.
- Deputy Fred: All I need is one person that saw you take that car. Just one. And I'd even settle for a liar.
- Vicky Barrington: Look, you don't seem to understand. I'm not much of a person for causes. Let's face it: Since I've been three days old, I've been a spoiled, self-centered, little rich girl, interested in taking care of only Number One: Me.
- Vicky Barrington: What's a mama?
- Crabs: Oh, you wanna be a mama. Anytime a Loser gets lonesome or needs a little, he just goes to a mama, and she takes care of 'im. Anytime at all.
- Judge: If we allowed citizens to take the law into their own hands, our streets would become jungles--*armed* jungles. I hereby sentence Mr. Jack to one hundred and twenty days in the county jail, or to the payment of a fine of one thousand dollars, plus costs. You can take your choice.
- Billy Jack's lawyer: We'll pay the fine, Your Honor. But we would like a stay of execution for five days so that we can gather up the money.
- Judge: Stay of execution for five days. So ordered.
- Billy Jack's lawyer: [to Billy Jack] Well, that fine about busts ya, doesn't it?
- Billy Jack: Tell me, what did they give the guys on the motorcycles?
- Billy Jack's lawyer: Guilty of assault. Thirty days or $150 fine. Go help someone again sometime.
- Billy Jack: I'm gonna count to three, and that lane better be cleared. One...
- Child: He means it, Daniel.
- Billy Jack: Two...
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: I'm gonna gut your bowels out.
- Billy Jack: Three.
- [Billy calmly shoots Danny between the eyes.]
- Pedestrian with Children: He had just returned from the war, one of those Green Beret rangers, a trained killer, people were to say later. Before the war he had hunted down and broken wild horses in these mountains. Some said the reason he was so good at these things, and the reason he lived alone in this forest, was that he had some Indian blood in him. Others said he simply didn't like people. All I knew was his name: Billy Jack.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Get off the bike, chick. Let's take a look at 'cha.
- Vicky Barrington: When I come back to earth as a horse, *then* I'll let you inspect me. *Maybe.*
- Child: They call me Child, after Christ child, because of my compassion and gentle nature.
- [gang members laugh in the background]
- Vicky Barrington: Vicky.
- Child: You like Danny, huh? He's somethin' else. But when he gets mad, he goes crazy. Wow. Clear out, man. Clear *out*.
- Billy Jack: He's got till tomorrow morning. And if my $300 bucks isn't back, or if you guys visit my trailer again, this bike is goin' up in flames.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Oh, mother, don't, uh, take *that* bike. You'll be signing your death warrant.
- [Billy Jack drives off in the bike.]
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Well, if it isn't my old friendly rival. One of your rare visits off the reservation?
- Child: Hey, Daniel: Do you know this... ferocious killer?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: From way back. Back when I was a little smaller and had to settle for second best. Too bad I wasn't around the other day when you gunned down my boys.
- Child: Hey, Daniel.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Yeah?
- Child: Look what's comin'.
- [Vicky rides by on her motorcycle, wearing a swimsuit.]
- Child: First prize to the winner. *If* he can catch her.
- [the gang runs off to their motorcycles.]
- Blonde in spotted swimsuit: Don't they just give you the creeps?
- Brunette with sunglasses: I think they're kinda cute.
- Jodell Shorn: You know, I wonder if what you hear about 'em is really true.
- Linda Prang: It sure is!
- Blonde in spotted swimsuit: How do *you* know?
- Linda Prang: Huh? Oh, well, I met one once, he wasn't such a bad person.
- Jodell Shorn: Ooh, wouldn't it be neat to meet 'em just once?
- Blonde in spotted swimsuit: Yech!
- Bartender: You lookin' for somebody?
- Billy Jack: Yeah: Danny.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: [laughs] Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy. You're still a wild mother, man, comin' in here like that. You got cool. What can I do for you?
- Billy Jack: I'm lookin' for some motorcyclists. They, uh, ranshacked my trailer and stole my piggy bank.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Mm-hmm. What did they look like?
- Billy Jack: I don't know. I wasn't there.
- Billy Jack: So?
- Billy Jack: So, I want it back.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Stealin's illegal. Call a cop.
- Billy Jack: That's funny. No, I think I can get it back better my own way.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Uh-huh. What're you gonna do when you find 'im?
- Billy Jack: See if he's man enough to keep it.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: [chuckles] You know, Billy, I admire your guts. So... I'm gonna tell you the truth. It's probably that pre-vert Gangrene that did it. Can't trust him at all. And I don't want *anybody* spoilin' the reputation of this club. So... I'll make a check on that, and get back to you on that subject.
- Billy Jack: Well, you got till tomorrow.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Oh! That's tough. Well, uh, what're you gonna do then, take on the whole chapter?
- Billy Jack: No, I'm an Injun, remember? And we're sneaky. We know how to strike silently, in the dark, any night, any time, any place. Uh, maybe you've heard all that before though, huh?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Mm-hmm.
- Billy Jack: Be kind of interesting to see how you like being hunted, for a while.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: You like it?
- Vicky Barrington: What is it?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: It's our home away from home. It's uh, it's like a fun palace. Come on. I'll give you a personally guided tour. Let's go.
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: Well, uh, somebody get the ape on a bike and get 'im up here.
- Crabs: You gonna let 'im treat us like that?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: I'm stalling.
- Gangrene: Danny, why'd you call me an "ape"?
- Daniel 'Danny' Carmody: 'Cause you're cute!
- [laughs]
