[In 1968, the Colonel is pitching Elvis a Christmas special on TV sponsored by the Singer sewing machine company]
Elvis Presley: Christmas special. Is this the best we can do, Admiral?
Colonel Tom Parker: Well, we took the Hollywood phonies for every nickel they had and now it is time to pack up our tents and move on to even greener pastures. We've seen "Elvis the Rebel". We've seen "Elvis the Movie Star". Now we will see "Elvis the Family Entertainer".
Jerry Schilling: [sarcastically] And appliance salesman.
Elvis Presley: [turning to Jerry] What did you say?
[walks over angrily]
Elvis Presley: Listen, Jerry, I don't need you to question me about how I support my family and every *goddamn* person here! You understand me? If you don't like it, you can go back to Memphis.
[entering his trailer]
Elvis Presley: Laugh it up, assholes
