- Newsvendor: Look mister, I don't know what the hell you are talking about.
- Jack McGee: I am talking about the Red-Eye that I took out of Chicago because of your phone call last night.
- Newsvendor: What?
- Jack McGee: Look kid, you called me. Collect as a matter of cold, hard fact. Now I don't want to see you get in trouble about this, so if you'll just ...
- Newsvendor: Mister I was home last night, with my sister, watching a football game, you can ask her.
- Jack McGee: Eh, you're Ruben right?
- Newsvendor: Ruben, the old man? That's my boss.
- Leigh Gamble: What I saw... what I thought I saw, was an hallucination.
- Jack McGee: No, he's real.
- Leigh Gamble: It was an hallucination!
- Jack McGee: The thing that eh, I really found heartwarming, personally, is that John Doe, my John Doe, the man that I have been following for three years, saved your life. Now come on miss Gable, maybe we could manage a couple of columns?
- Leigh Gamble: That would be very nice, but you saved my life, Mr. McGee.
- Walter Gamble: I just want to...I mean, you might want to take it a little easy with Leigh. You see, she's been in and out of the hospital ever since the fire. The last few months have been very difficult for her.
- Dr. David Bruce Banner: Well, burns can take a long time to heal.
- Walter Gamble: It wasn't that kind of hospital. I mean, she's okay now. She's really come a long way. Well, I thought I'd mention it.
- [David gives Andy a drug to analyze, and is given a card]
- Dr. David Bruce Banner: What are the numbers for?
- Andy: So when you call, we know it's the right person. You heard the rap I gave to the chick?
- Dr. David Bruce Banner: Oh yeah.
- Andy: Good. Three hundred eighty-seven times a day I say that little speech.
- [Walter tries to convince Mr. Kelleher to give him and Leigh more time to prepare the wax museum for reopening]
- Mr. Kelleher: Please, Mr. Gamble. The bank is sympathetic to your tragedy, but we are governed by rules and regulations.
- Leigh Gamble: An artist's lifetime of work shouldn't be affected by things like that.
- [David examines the spigot]
- Dr. David Bruce Banner: Look. No wonder it broke off. The threads have been stripped.
- Walter Gamble: Really?
- Dr. David Bruce Banner: Yeah.
- Walter Gamble: Well, it always comes down to money, doesn't it, David? This thing's so damned old, Madame Tussaud must have used it.
