The "Legacy" section said (past tense, I have deleted it) that, "One line of dialogue, 'I don't know. What do you want to do tonight, Marty?', was often satirized and became a catchphrase during the 1950s."
The line quoted never actually appears in the film. The actual dialogue is as follows:
Ange - So, What do you want to do tonight, Marty?
Marty - I don't know. What do you want to do tonight, Ange?
They repeat this several times with different intonation with comedic effect. Furthermore, the quoted source does not say that the line was, "satirized and became a catchphrase", the source said that the film, "immortalized" the line. There is no mention of satire or catchphrases. I have therefore deleted this from the article as it misrepresents its own source and is factually incorrect.
