- Illya Kuryakin: [speaking to Solo via walkie-talkie] Oh, by the way, Bufferton is dead.
- Napoleon Solo: [spoiler] Well, that's life.
- Marion Raven: [to Napoleon Solo] Don't you stand there looking so innocent; you're nothing but a whirling mess of plots and schemes.
- Napoleon Solo: Do you play chess, Miss Ravel?
- Gervaise Ravel: No... I'd rather not to.
- Napoleon Solo: [examining a small revolver that was part of her masquerade as Marie Antoinette] Fires two bullets.
- Gervaise Ravel: One should be sufficient.
- Napoleon Solo: The Giacco
- [Giuco]
- Napoleon Solo: Piano gambit: Bishop to bishop-four, tempting the queen to rashly move out to knight-three. And the Queen has no doubt, has she?
- Gervaise Ravel: But your queen is a prisoner. I don't think I'll risk it. I'll call your bluff.
- Napoleon Solo: Oh, it's not bluff. My white knight has gone to the rescue of my queen.
- Gervaise Ravel: You don't have a white knight.
- Napoleon Solo: Perhaps your presumption of infallibility is your weakness, Gervaise.
