Corbin Bernsen: Henry Spencer

Quotes 

• D.A. Assistant : May I help you?

  Shawn Spencer : Yes. My name is Shawn Spencer, I am the head psychic for the Santa Barbara Police Department. And that is my partner...

  Henry Spencer : [impatiently]  Yeah, yeah, that's his partner, Methuselah Honeysuckle, which makes me Old Scratch Johnson.

• Henry Spencer : I'm a taxpaying, voting citizen, therefore I have a right to speak to *any* elected official, such as the D.A., I please.

  Shawn Spencer : [to Gus]  You don't *have* to be a taxpaying, voting citizen, though, do you?

• Burton 'Gus' Guster : Enough! I'm sick of you two fighting all the time. Look, Mr. Spencer, Shawn needs you on the case because, frankly, you're old, and we were barely even alive during the seventies. Shawn, your dad needs you on the case because even though you can be extremely annoying, you actually have a brilliant idea every now and then. But you're both too damn stubborn to admit that you need each other. Now, can we go, please? Thank you.

  [Gus gets in the car] 

  Henry Spencer : Is it he always such a know-it-all?

  Shawn Spencer : You don't know the half of it. Very preachy.

• Burton 'Gus' Guster : [undercover in ugly, 1970's-era clothing]  I feel ridiculous.

  Henry Spencer : Speak for yourself. I've got this shirt at home.

• Shawn Spencer : All right, how much money do we have between us?

  Henry Spencer : What? Oh, uhhhh... I got - I think I've got about... fifty bucks.

  Shawn Spencer : Um-hmm.

  Burton 'Gus' Guster : I got about four hundred between my wallet and my sock.

  Burton 'Gus' Guster : [Shawn and Henry stare at Gus]  It's my "just in case" money!

  Shawn Spencer : All right. Add in what I have, and we've got about... four-fifty.

• Henry Spencer : [wants to see a case folder]  You're lucky I'm even asking you, Shawn. I could do this the simple way. I could grab it from you, clean up any evidence of a struggle before you and your little friend here knew what hit ya!

  Shawn Spencer : In some states, that's called child abuse.

  Burton 'Gus' Guster : I think all of them.

• Henry Spencer : So what kind of wood are we gonna use for these bookshelves, Gus?

  Burton 'Gus' Guster : Uhhh... cypress.

  Shawn Spencer : Cypress? Really?

  Burton 'Gus' Guster : It's a good wood. It's what Noah's Ark was made of.
