Quotes

Michael Knight: That's right, it's called para-sailing.
K.I.T.T.: Wrong, it's called total insanity.
Michael Knight: Well, it just happens to be one of the most popular sports in Acapulco. Only there they do it off the backs of motorboats.
K.I.T.T.: Michael, we're not in Acapulco, and I have about as much in common with motorboat as you have with a seagull.

Crazy Credits
