Clerk : And it seems that there's been a mistake on your bill.
Lou Grant : How can that be? I'm just now checking in.
Clerk : I don't know. But it says here that a waiter overcharged you five dollars on your bar bill this noon. We've given you a credit.
Lou Grant : I wasn't here this noon.
Clerk : Oh? Isn't this your signature?
Lou Grant : No. It's my name, but it's not my signature.
Clerk : Oh, how embarrassing.

Jack Riley : Now, now, Lou, let's try to be fair and just here.
Lou Grant : If we wanted to be fair and just here, Jack, the cops would've arrested you.
Jack Riley : Yeah, well, let's just remember who was right about that waiter, Lou, you heard it here first.
Lou Grant : Yeah, big deal, once in twenty years you're on the level.
Jack Riley : You know, you wound me when you talk that way.

Charlie Hume : How can I relax? Not only might there be a kidnapping tonight, but I haven't been able to line up a speaker. I mean, what, what's everybody gonna say when I get up there tonight and say "Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, we haven't got a closing speaker".
Lou Grant : They'll probably give you a standing ovation.
Charlie Hume : Oh.
Lou Grant : Maybe even carry you out of the room on their shoulders.
