Jessica Marbles
- Milo Perrier: He's gone!
- Jessica Marbles: Who's gone?
- Milo Perrier: The butler. Here's the key.
- Sidney Wang: If butler gone, where you find key?
- Milo Perrier: In his pocket.
- Jessica Marbles: What pocket?
- Milo Perrier: The butler's pocket.
- Sidney Wang: Butler gone but pocket still there?
- Jessica Marbles: Good God, gas!
- Miss Withers: I'm sorry. I can't help it, I'm old.
- Jessica Marbles: No, no the other kind of gas. The kind that kills!
- Miss Withers: Sometimes my gas...
- Inspector Milo Perrier: Everything here has been rented for tonight. The butler, the cook, the food, the dining room chairs, everything!
- Jessica Marbles: You mean...
- Inspector Milo Perrier: Yes. This entire murder has been... catered.
- Sidney Wang: It is late, and my eyes are getting tired.
- Sam Diamond: I thought they always looked like that.
- Jessica Marbles: Knock it off, Sam!
- Sam Diamond: I apologize. This case is getting to me. I'm sorry, Slanty.
- Sidney Wang: Um... thank you.
- Jessica Marbles: I'm not one to use hyperbole, ladies and gentlemen but I'll tell you this, for the first time in my life I had the caca scared out of me!
- Dora Charleston: Dickie, I like her. I really like her!
- Inspector Milo Perrier: Touch nothing!
- Jessica Marbles: Will you stop saying "touch nothing?" We're all experienced criminologists. I find it insulting, debasing, and redundant to keep telling us to "touch nothing!"
- Inspector Milo Perrier: Oh, be quiet, woman!
- Jessica Marbles: Up yours, fella!
- Sidney Wang: Most amusing. Bickering detectives like making lamb stew: everything goes to pot!
- [everyone holds hands to prevent themselves from being killed]
- Sam Diamond: Stop that. Stop it, I said.
- Dick Charleston: What is it, Diamond?
- Sam Diamond: The nurse is giving my palm the finger, the dirty old broad.
- Jessica Marbles: Naughty! Naughty, Miss Withers!
- [Miss Withers giggles]
- Jessica Marbles: I could use a good stiff shot, Mr. Charleston. I believe that booze, as you call it, is your department.
- Jessica Marbles: I was not jilted! I walked out on him. He wanted to fool around before the wedding.
- Inspector Milo Perrier: And being the lady you are, you refused.
- Jessica Marbles: No. Not completely. But, it got out of hand.
