- Garfield: [voiceover] My first stop was the city morgue. As I walked up the stairs I saw my old adversary at the top of the steps. It was Lt. Washington.
- Lt. Washington: Shpayed, what brings you down here? Trying to find a client?
- Garfield: Sure, lieutenant. He's the one your blue-boys shot out back for jaywalking.
- Lt. Washington: Watch it, Shpayed. I've still got your license under investigation.
- Garfield: Oh, really? Then I know its safe for a while.
- Lt. Washington: Shpayed, don't push me!
- Garfield: Wouldn't dream of it, lieutenant. Have a nishe day.
- Garfield: Why someone would murder a 23-year-old college professor was beyond me. Maybe he delivered just one too many lectures on the Boxer Rebellion. Stranger things have happened in this town.
- Garfield: San Francisco's a beautiful city. Cable cars, fog rollin' off the bay, Chinatown, the Golden Gate Bridge, the wharf; gee, I wish I lived there.
- Burt Fleebish: Is there anything else you need, Sam?
- Garfield: A clue, a motive and a murderer. Good night, Burt.
- Burt Fleebish: Uh, Sam?
- Garfield: Yeah, Burt?
- Burt Fleebish: It's noon.
