Quotes

Pete Cochran : What is it with you and him?
Capt. Adam Greer : He's my personal Moby Dick. My first case as a detective. He salted a lead mine in Nevada with uranium and sold phony stock. He cleaned up and everybody else busted out. You know, I couldn't get a single victim to testify?
Linc Hayes : Why not?
Capt. Adam Greer : They had confidence in him. They begged the judge to restrain me from harassing their friend and benefactor!
[laughter]

Capt. Adam Greer : When the Admiral gets through with you guys you'll be thoroughly corrupt.
Pete Cochran : Then you can uncorrupt us. Again.

Capt. Adam Greer : I bet you three get a charge out of listening to the Admiral harpoon me.
Julie Barnes : He happens to be a very groovy person.
Capt. Adam Greer : That does it. Okay, kids, I better take you off the case. He's won and I've lost.
Linc Hayes : What do you mean?
Capt. Adam Greer : You're not taking him seriously! You think he's some combination of Robin Hood, Santa Claus, and Daddy Warbucks.
Pete Cochran : Well, we don't think he's the Boston Strangler.
Capt. Adam Greer : You're aiding and abetting a criminal!
Julie Barnes : I'm not! I just wash his socks.
[laughter]

Linc Hayes : [entrusted with an incriminating check] Well, we finally got it.
Julie Barnes : All the evidence the Captain needs.
Pete Cochran : And an eyewitness to testify.
Julie Barnes : What should we do?
Linc Hayes : Tear it up.
Pete Cochran : Burn it.
Capt. Adam Greer : [Greer enters the scene and takes the check] You could give it to me.
Linc Hayes : What are you gonna do?
Capt. Adam Greer : Go over to Monrovia, get a written complaint from Dr. Steelman.
Julie Barnes : Can't you let the Admiral go?
Capt. Adam Greer : He's a crook!
Pete Cochran : Not really. He only swindles people who already have larceny in their hearts. How many times did he tell us that?
Capt. Adam Greer : Boy, are you hooked.
