- Diego: Yeah... he and Old Man Bailey who used to run the bank did everything by handshake.
- Maggie: Well, you know what that means...

- Maggie: ...the theater's in a lot of debt, grandpa.
- Maggie: What if walking away if the only way to save it?
- Maggie: Oh... I know it's only my dream, but...
- Maggie: ...please help me grandpa.
- Bill: Then I would say it's not worth saving - not of the expense of your integrity, anyways.
- Maggie: Grandpa, this was our dream, your lifelong passion.
- Maggie: Heck, it was my HOME growing up. It's where I learned to love film.
- Bill: If something's important enough, you'll find a way...

- Maggie: Don't thank me yet - I have a favor to ask.
- Maggie: I've been running the numbers and this theater has another act left in it yet.
- Charles: Not, if that cineplex opens, it doesn't.
- Maggie gives another paper.
- Maggie: Idle rumors. This town can't support a theater of that size, and besides, people love this place.
- Maggie: All it needs is a new line of credit to update a few things, modernize a bit.
- Charles: I thought you were going to sell the theater?
- Maggie: My grandfather never gave up on his dream... It's up to me to keep it alive.

- Diego: Agreed.
- Maggie: Naturally people still love brilliant classic movies...
