Quotes 

• Peter Gunn : Don't you know that killing people is against the law?

  Barnaby : Well, it depends on how one looks at it.

  Peter Gunn : How does one look at it?

  Barnaby : These weren't people, Mr. Gunn, not people at all. Gangsters, a black mark on the escutcheon of society.

  Peter Gunn : Well, don't you think that's a decision for the courts?

  Barnaby : But they didn't even get into court. And I know, I was there.

• Peter Gunn : What's that?

  Barnaby : It's a bomb. Another step and I'll be obliged to drop this. We wouldn't want that, would we?

• Lieutenant Jacoby : All right, we capture him. We haul him into court and his lawyer puts him on the stand. Can you hear him? "I did it in the interest of the community." So, who's gonna argue with him? The judge? The jury? the D.A.? The public will build a statue of him. They'll put it in the park.

  Peter Gunn : Now, Lieutenant, don't get carried away.

  Lieutenant Jacoby : Pete, this is an election year. By any chance he happens to beat this rap, and the chance is very good, he could go all the way to the state capitol.

  Peter Gunn : Governor Barnaby?

  Lieutenant Jacoby : Can you name me one man who's done more for this town?
