  John Jefferson : Well, if you'd enjoy it, Father...

  Dan Jefferson : Well, I don't know whether you will. But as I told you, we're alert. And we ARE alert.

  John Jefferson : You just said that.

  Dan Jefferson : Yes, and you sound to me like, like one of those guys that we should be alert about.

  John Jefferson : One of those guys?

  Dan Jefferson : I just said that you sounded like one, I didn't say that you... 'cos if thought that you really were, you know, I'd take you out in the backyard and I'd give it you, both barrels.

  John Jefferson : No trial, huh?

  Dan Jefferson : Nah, you're off on the wrong slant. And you know what I'm talking about. Cos as your father, I want to know where you're headed.

  John Jefferson : Well, I can help you there. I'm headed for the bathroom, wash my hands and clean up for dinner.
