Best Line In The Movie


It's when Jonathan and Dr. Einstein are adding up their murders and Jonathan states that "He wouldn't have died from pneumonia if I hadn't shot him"

reply

Mortimer Brewster: Aunt Abby, how can I believe you? There are twelve men down in the cellar and you admit you poisoned them.

Aunt Abby Brewster: Yes, I did. But you don't think I'd stoop to telling a fib.



You ain't got a license to kill bookies and today I ain't sellin any. So take your flunky and dangle

reply

My favorite line? "Insanity runs in my family. It practically gallops."

reply

"We'll have to use the Nelson Method"
"No,No,not the Nelson Method,...that takes 2hours,with the most excruciating pain!"

reply

It's actually "The Melbourne Method".

"Not the Melbourne method, please! Two hours...! And then when it was all over, what ? The fellow in London was just as dead as the fellow in Melbourne!"

reply

*Mortimore shows Aunt Abby the new man in the window sill*
Aunt Abby: Now who could that be?
Mortimore: Aunt Abby, are you telling me that this isn't one of your men?
Aunt Abby: It certainly is not! Well, this is a fine how-do-you-do. It's getting to be so anybody thinks he can walk in here.

Truck or Squad. What side are you on?

reply

"I'm the son of a sea cook!"

reply

Not my favorite but it's better when you know it was Bowdlerized for the movie code from "I'm a bastard!".

I also like when Einstein is showing Johnny the empty grave in the cellar and talking about how hospitable it was for the household to dig it.

"He thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt. There are worse guys he could think he was."

Probably my favorite line in the show is when Mortimer says, "Others?! When you say others, do you mean OTHERS?! More than one others?"




Alas! The next word is ‘pigs’ bristles’. We are undone, my good Watson!

reply

"Young man, let that be a lesson to you." - Teddy







"When a day starts like this, it's all uphill from here."

I love this bit:

Mortimer Brewster: The name Brewster is code for Roosevelt.
Teddy Brewster: Code for Roosevelt?
Mortimer Brewster: Yes. Don't you see? Take the name Brewster, take away the B, and what have you got?
Teddy Brewster: Rooster!
Mortimer Brewster: Uh-huh. And what does a rooster do?
Teddy Brewster: Crows.
Mortimer Brewster: It crows. And where do you hunt in Africa?
Teddy Brewster: On the veldt!
Mortimer Brewster: There you are: crows - veldt!
Teddy Brewster: Ingenious! My compliments to the boys in the code department.


And, as a Brooklynite, I love the scripted prelude: "This is a Hallowe'en tale of Brooklyn, where anything can happen - - and it usually does."

reply

"Here's $10 go haunt yourself a hotel!"
