Sometimes, I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes, I have a dream. I dream that I'm in the food giant supermarket, the one on La Brea Street, buying lobsters for mom... the biggest juiciest lobsters you can imagine.
— Mr. Joyboy (Rod Steiger)

- Mom's a heck of a lot of fun, isn't she? Oh, she's every inch a queen.
- Aimee, I want to show you something.
- This is my bedroom. I wanted you to see it. I don't know why.
- Big tub?
- I buy them by the dozen, just the way people buy eggs.
- And then they see me coming in the market, and they say, here comes the lobster man. Here he comes.
- And then... I know it sounds crazy, but then I do this little dance, and I sing.
- Mama's little Joyboy want lobster, lobster. Mama's little Joyboy want lobster for mom.
- And then the whole dream changes. I don't know... it becomes like a nightmare.
