- Frank Niles: Looking crestfallen: "No, there's nothing missing. I don't have any valuables".
- Muldoon: Suspiciously: "What were you looking for so hard just now - your BVD's?"
- Voice 1: [Anonymous voice from crowd standing in front of building entrance] Hey, Mack. What's doin'? Why all the people here?
- Voice 2: [Anonymous voice from crowd standing in front of building entrance] What's doin'? What's the matter? You live in Canarsie or somethin'? This is the place where that model was killed.
- Voice 1: [Anonymous voice from crowd standing in front of building entrance] You don't mean it. The bathtub girl, huh? So why didn't she take showers?
- Voice 1, Voice 2: [Both laughing at the joke]
