It's a chopper, baby

"Pulp Fiction" is loaded with terrific dialogue. ("royale with cheese", "there ain't no more me and you", "Hamburgers: the cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast") but the exchange between Bruce Willis's Butch and his girlfriend Fabienne is the best -

"Fabian - Where did you get this motorcycle?

Butch-(he KICK-STARTS it)
It's a chopper, baby, hop on.

Fabienne- Butch, whose motorcycle is this?

Butch - It's a chopper.

Fabienne- Whose chopper is this?

Butch - Zed's.

Fabienne - Who's Zed?

Butch - Zed's dead, baby, Zed's dead."

Who among us wouldn't like to say, just once (and mean it)- It's a chopper, baby.
