Arthur Treacher: Anthony Travers

Quotes 

• Ted Shayne : Find anything in the divan?

  Anthony Travers : Only a few hairpins and some loose change.

  Ted Shayne : [holding out hat]  Come across!

• Anthony Travers : Then you have the trumpet?

  Ted Shayne : No.

  Anthony Travers : But you know where it is?

  Ted Shayne : Nope.

  Anthony Travers : What? You've just inveigled me into telling you what it is. I say that's a pretty rotten trick, old boy. That's not cricket!

• Anthony Travers : Having failed to rob you of it, I suppose I'll have to pay you for the return of the Horn. Shall we say $2,000?

  Ted Shayne : Say 5,000 and you've said something.

  Anthony Travers : Very well, 5,000.

  Ted Shayne : You could offer me a million for a purple elephant, but, that wouldn't mean a thing.

• Anthony Travers : You do know something about the history of that period?

  Ted Shayne : Oh, well, I know a double cross when I hear one.

  Anthony Travers : Well, unfortunately, Charlemagne didn't, old boy. When the French withdrew, our jolly old friend Roland was in charge of the rear!

• Anthony Travers : Roland, in spite of his shaky predicament, refused to *blow* his Horn until he found he was the lone French survivor and new he was dying.

  Ted Shayne : Well, it was too late then for him to blow anything but Taps!

• Ted Shayne : How much of that tripe you've been telling me is on the level?

  Anthony Travers : Tripe, as you call it, happens to be the true history of the Trumpet and it's real value. And that's why...

  Ted Shayne : Darkies were born!
