Quotes
-
Pam Davidson : Where's the map, Bill? There's nothing in here but gun magazines.
Bill Maxwell : Oh, yeah. That's for stakeouts. I do the crosswords in the back.
Pam Davidson : In gun magazines? You're not serious.
Bill Maxwell : Yeah, sure. Give me a six-letter word for a German-made gun with a 902.5 muzzle velocity and a 7.65-millimeter slug.
Pam Davidson : A Luger?
Bill Maxwell : Uh, Mauser.
-
Bill Maxwell : Uh, Ralph, up and over. We'll wait here. Good luck.
Ralph Hinkley : "Good luck"? Is that all I get?
Bill Maxwell : And a watch.
Ralph Hinkley : You're sending me in there, hotter than a bowl full of chili, Ralph Hinkley, the walking, talking light bulb?
-
Bill Maxwell : Oh, that doesn't look good. It's dark, foreboding. It's like those movies.
Pam Davidson : What movies?
Bill Maxwell : Where the thing comes out and goes "blah", and you drop the popcorn under the seat.
Pam Davidson : You certainly know how to sum up a situation, Bill.
-
Bill Maxwell : Listen. Why don't you take the suit off?
Pam Davidson : Well, we were thinking about that, Bill. But what if the electrical charge on Ralph was a force field or something could kill him? I mean, he could take off the suit and keel over dead.
Bill Maxwell : Yeah. That's good thinking. I didn't think of that.
Ralph Hinkley : Well, I hope you guys know I don't look forward to going through life as a Van De Graaff generator.
-
Ralph Hinkley : You know, it's one thing to have this suit and to go through life looking like Captain Gonzo, but this thing with alarms going off and lights and wristwatches sticking to my chest... I mean, I think I'm handling it pretty good though, don't you? Huh? Huh?
Bill Maxwell : Don't you think I am? You think I like driving around in a car that belches and toots and is driving me blind? You think I like little green guys lurking around and dead guys talking to me? No, I do not like it, but, uh, we do what we gotta.
