James Anderson: John Alvin

Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  John Alvin : I'm awful glad it's over, Mr. Mathews, even if you fellas get the reward. The way you walked in that barn, you earned it.

  Dan Mathews : Let me tell something, mister. No law enforcement officer ever gets the reward. That's in line of duty. That's our job. Oh, by the way, Mrs. Alvin. I tell you one thing. You got yourself ten thousand dollars for the information you gave us. Spend it. Don't give it to these guys, just spend it.

• Vance Wells : You finally ready?

  John Alvin : Yeah.

  Vance Wells : Now, the way I figure it, we gotta rush him. Now, George, you come from the left. John, you come from the right. I'll head straight for the door and we'll meet there.

  George Bailey : But that'll put us out in the open. He can take a potshot at any one of us!

  John Alvin : I figure he's passed out by now.

  George Bailey : Maybe he hasn't. Maybe he's watching us right now, ready to blast away!

  Vance Wells : That's a chance we gotta take. I think John's right. Now, if you're chicken, George, get outta here! Clear out and go home!

  George Bailey : [resignedly]  All right. Let's go.
