Awesome / Falling Down

• For Foster:
  • After beating up the two thugs who demanded that he pay the toll:
    "YOU FORGOT THE BRIEFCASE!"
    "I'M GOING HOME! CLEAR A PATH, YOU MOTHERFUCKER!"
  • The Slow Walk after the drive-by crash and him shooting one of the Chicano thugs in the leg.
    "Take some shooting lessons, asshole."
  • The incident with the road crew, the Whammy Burger and the army surplus store.
  • Killing the Neo-Nazi store manager.
    "Feels good to exercise your rights, doesn't it?"
  • He may be nuts, but he pokes holes in every idiotic lie the homeless man tells him to get money from him. He later kicks the apple from his briefcase the bum throws at him as it trundles by after being thrown at him.
  • During his duel with Prendergast at the end, Foster actually manages to land a headshot with his waterpistol, while smugly saying "I woulda got you." Think about it for a second. Prendergast already had his gun drawn and aimed at Foster. He's also a trained cop, with plenty of experience and training for handling a gun. Foster was just a regular civilian, with no experience or training in firearms prior to this day, and his gun was tucked in his pocket. He still managed to draw, aim, and land a headshot, in less than a heartbeat. Indeed if the gun wasn't a waterpistol, he would have killed Prendergast first.
• For Prendergast:
  • After he's had enough of his whining wife:
    "And leave the skin on the chicken!"
  • One minute later, he delivers a Megaton Punch to his Jerkass colleague. Badmouthing his wife is pushing his Berserk Button.
  • At the end, towards the police chief Captain Yardley, who earlier said to his face that "I don't trust a man who doesn't curse," and "...don't waste any more of my time pretending you're a cop," he says the following in front of a live TV report, after Yardley hypocritically praises him:
    "Fuck you, Captain Yardley. Fuck you very much."
  • The fact that he was able to connect the dots and track down Foster.
  • Entering Foster's house unarmed after hearing gunshots go off.
  • Making a very stylish stealth entrance on Foster, while casually eating a small bucket of popcorn.
  • His "The Reason You Suck" Speech to Foster, and by extension everyone in the audience who had been sympathizing too much with him.
    "Is that what this is about? You're angry because you got lied to? Is that why my chicken dinner is drying out in the oven? Listen, pal, they lie to everyone. They lie to the fish. But that doesn't give you any special right to do what you did today."
