Sheriff Meeker : Are you talkin' about Jamie Lloyd?
Dr. Loomis : Wherever she is, that little child is in mortal danger.

Jack Sayer : You're huntin' it, ain't ya? Yeah, you're huntin' it, all right. Just like me.
Dr. Loomis : What are you hunting, Mr. Sayer?
Jack Sayer : Apocalypse, End of the World, Armageddon. It's always got a face and a name. I've been huntin' the bastard for 30 years, give or take. Come close a time or two. Too damn close! You can't kill damnation, Mister. It don't die like a man dies.
Dr. Loomis : I know that, Mr. Sayer.

Dr. Loomis : [encounters the Shape in gas station] Michael? Why now? You waited ten years. I knew this day would come. Don't go to Haddonfield. If you want another victim, take me. But leave those people in peace. Please, Michael?

[after all the cops at the station are slaughtered]
Sheriff Meeker : How could a man do this, Loomis? Tell me.

Dr. Loomis : Evil.

[Loomis and Dr. Hoffman arrive at a river where the ambulance containing Michael Myers crashed into]
Dr. Hoffman : When did this happen?
Trooper #1 : Sometime in the night. They probably lost the road in the storm and came down the embankment. It happens.
Dr. Hoffman : An accident?
Trooper #1 : Yes, sir?
Dr. Loomis : Do you believe that?
Dr. Hoffman : Why shouldn't I?
-
Dr. Loomis : I need to speak with Sheriff Brackett.
Deputy Pierce : Well, then you'll have to travel about three-thousand miles south of here.
Dr. Loomis : What?
Deputy Pierce : Brackett retired in '81. He went to St. Petersburg.
-
Dr. Loomis : Why wasn't I notified?
Dr. Hoffman : About what?
Dr. Loomis : You know damn well about what! You let them take it out of here!
-
Dr. Hoffman : Now where are you going?
Dr. Loomis : Haddonfield. It's a four hour drive. You can reach me through the local police. If you don't find him in four hours, I'm sure I will.

Sheriff Meeker : [Loomis sees Michael standing near a house] Is that him? Is that him.
Dr. Loomis : Yes.
[Now a second Michael appears to Loomis' right]
Sheriff Meeker : Loomis.
[points, just as a third Michael appears]
Sheriff Meeker : Oh Christ, Doc.
Dr. Loomis : Dear God.
[Loomis and Meeker see that they are surrounded. Loomis aims his gun at the first Michael, who takes off his mask to reveal a teenage hooligan]
Kid in Michael Myers Mask : Hey, don't shoot!
[the other Michaels remove their masks to show it was all a prank. They run away laughing]
Kid in Michael Myers Mask : Oh, that was great. Thought it was me, didn't you, Sheriff?
Sheriff Meeker : Get home, dammit. There's a curfew. I catch your ass, it'll be a weekend in jail! You alright, Doc? Come on, we'll get to the station, we'll get these kids safe.
Rachel Carruthers : [Jamie is shaken by what she had seen; Rachel comforts her] It's okay, it's okay.
