Mr. Toad : [in court giving his defense; to Cyril] Are you familiar with the defendant J. Thaddeus Toad?
Cyril Proudbottom : Lord love a duck, yes! He's one of the jolliest chaps I've ever run across! And simply *tons* of money!
Prosecutor : [to Cyril] Good fellow, eh? Throws it away. BUT he wasn't throwing it away *that* day! You heard Mr. MacBadger's testify that his allowance was cut off! Then how did he get the motorcar?
Cyril Proudbottom : The only way a gentlemen gets anything: the *honest* way.
Prosecutor : And what *is* the honest way?
Cyril Proudbottom : Ha-ha, I thought you wouldn't know that one, guv'nor.
