No “I’ll be back” or other famous ones. I want to see the ones I don’t already know, from movies or TV programs. And I’m looking for exit lines, where after saying them, the character leaves the scene. And to make a little game out of it, don’t tell us anything about where it comes from, and we’ll guess. Mine may be easy, you’ve probably seen it, but you may not be able to place it. “I don’t like crooks. And if I did like 'em, I wouldn’t like crooks who are stool pigeons. And if I did like crooks who are stool pigeons, I still wouldn’t like you!” Your turn. ---

I would not call that obscure (maybe just me though but knowing this board I am pretty sure I am not the only one who would recognize that). ---

Sorry, I maybe wasn’t clear that I wasn’t looking for last lines before being killed, or last lines before killing someone, but last lines before leaving the scene. “Exit” here is literal, as in stage directions. ---
