Buford: You owe me money, blacksmith.
Doc: How do you figure?
Buford: My horse threw his shoe. And seein' as you was the one who done the shoein', I say that makes you responsible.
Doc: Well, since you never paid me for the job, I say that makes us even!
Buford: Wrong! See, I was on my horse when he threw the shoe and I got thrown off! And that caused me to bust a perfectly good bottle of fine Kentucky red-eye. So, the way I figure it, blacksmith, you owe me $5 for the whiskey and $75 for the horse.
Marty: [under his breath] That's the $80!
Doc: Look! If your horse threw his shoe, bring him back, and I'll re-shoe him!
Buford: I done shot that horse!
Doc: Well, that's your problem, Tannen!
Buford: Wrong! That's yours. So, from now on, you better be lookin' behind you when you walk, 'cause one day, you're gonna get a bullet in your back!

Marty: Clayton Ravine was named after a teacher. They say she fell in there a hundred years ago.
Doc: A hundred years ago? That's this year!
Marty: Every kid in school knows that story 'cause we all have teachers we'd like to see fall into the ravine.
Doc: Great Scott! Then she was supposed to go over in that wagon... and now I may have seriously altered history.
