Episode #1.3 (1966)

Mitchell Ryan: Burke Devlin

Quotes 

• Burke Devlin : You're an ambitious kid, Joe. You want to get ahead. Work for yourself. I like that. But you're a dead duck as far as Carolyn Stoddard is concerned. And you know it. As long as she lives in that house on the hill.

  Joe Haskell : She doesn't want to leave her mother alone up there. That makes sense, doesn't it?

  Burke Devlin : Does it? Does that make sense, Joe? A woman stays in that hill for 18 years. She could walk off anytime. But she won't do it. How long you gonna wait? Another 18 years?

• Burke Devlin : Mr. Malloy, when I was a kid, I used to go up to Collinwoood to look for ghosts. We all used to think it was haunted. Well, I didn't find any then, but they're there. You know it and I know it. They creep out of every corner, and hide under every bed. Well, I didn't put them there, Mr. Malloy, but I'm sure gonna do everything I can to dig them out.

  Bill Malloy : What good it'll do ya?

  Burke Devlin : It might give me back a lot of time I've lost.
