Bad Day at Black Rock

Things change. Sure do. And Smith is the kid who changes 'em, isn't he?... What's wrong...

Liz Wirth: Things change.
John J. Macreedy: Sure do. And Smith is the kid who changes 'em, isn't he?... What's wrong with this town of yours, Miss Wirth?
Liz Wirth: I don't want to get involved.
John J. Macreedy: Involved in what?
Liz Wirth: Whatever you're up to. Whatever happens, I've got to go on living in this town. These people are my neighbors, my friends.
John J. Macreedy: ALL of 'em?
Liz Wirth: This is my town, Mr. Macreedy, like it or not.
John J. Macreedy: Well, if you don't like it, why do you stick around?
Liz Wirth: My brother Pete, he'd never leave.
John J. Macreedy: Didn't it ever occur to you that you might leave without him? You look like a pretty independent young lady. Your brother seems to me...
Liz Wirth: Weak. Yeah, I know. That's why I couldn't leave him.
John J. Macreedy: What did your brother do?

John J. Macreedy: I don't care anything about Black Rock. Only it just seems to me that there aren't many towns like this in America. But one town like it is enough and because I think something kind of bad happened here, Miss Wirth, something I can't quite seem to find the handle to.
Liz Wirth: You don't know what you're talking about.
John J. Macreedy: Well, I know this much: the rule of law has left here and the gorillas have taken over
