Quotes 

• Desk Clerk : Good afternoon, Mr. Paladin. Glad to have you back.

  Paladin : Thank you. And my mail, please.

  Desk Clerk : Yes, sir. Oh, I'm sorry, it must be in the hold box. I'll have it sorted out and sent to your room.

  Paladin : Well, I'll take my newspapers now.

  Desk Clerk : Yes, sir. There you are. Late afternoon edition.

  Paladin : No, no. MY newspapers. They're kept separate for me.

  Desk Clerk : Well, I'm afraid I don't know about that, Mr. Paladin.

  Paladin : Well, Hey Boy does. Where's he?

  Desk Clerk : Hey Boy's no longer with us. He was discharged.

  Paladin : Why?

  Desk Clerk : He hasn't come to work in almost a week. Certainly the Carlton can't tolerate that kind of thing.

  Paladin : Did it ever occur to the Carlton that Hey Boy might have a very good reason? He might be ill.

  Desk Clerk : Well, after all, it's not our responsibility. I assure you, Mr. Paladin, The Carlton will continue to give you the same excellent service.

  Paladin : I've just had an example of your 'excellent service.' May I have Hey Boy's address?

  Desk Clerk : Really, Mr. Paladin, it isn't that important. These people are very easily replaced.

  Paladin : May I have his addess, or is your clientele easily replaced, too?
