Quotes 

• Lord Peter Wimsey : [to Milligan and Dian]  What will you have to drink? Whiskies?

  Major Todd Milligan : Oh, well, uh...

  Lord Peter Wimsey : Yes, I rather feared you might. The abominable habit of pouring whiskies on top of mixed drinks at this hour of the night is responsible for more ruined complexions and reputations than any other single cause.

• Lord Peter Wimsey : [to Dian and Milligan]  Please sit down, sit down, sit down and tell me all about your encounter with my scandalous cousin.

  Major Todd Milligan : Just a minute! I think I know the stud book pretty well. I wasn't aware that you had a cousin called Bredon.

  Lord Peter Wimsey : Well, it's not every puppy who appears in the kennel book, and it's a wise man who knows all his cousins.

• Dian de Momerie : [Jadedly]  I think I'll give up the dope. Do you think it'll be amusing to go all good?

  Major Todd Milligan : About as amusing as a Quaker meeting.

• Major Todd Milligan : Let's discuss terms.

  Lord Peter Wimsey : Later. When we have the reins in our own hands, it'll be time enough to decide which one of us is going to crack the whip.
