Dizzy Detectives (1943)

Bud Jamison: I. Doolittle - Police Commissioner

Quotes 

• Mr. Dill : Now, look here, commissioner, you've got to catch that ape-man.

  I. Doolittle - Police Commissioner : Just a minute, Mr. Dill. We're doing the best we can. As a matter of fact, we suspect he's not an ape-man but a real gorilla.

  Mr. Dill : Real gorilla, bah! Look here, commissioner, you've got to catch that ape-man.

  [he pounds the table; Curly, trying to eat a walnut, gets an idea and puts it nearby] 

  Mr. Dill : [stressing the last word, he crushes it open obliviously]  And if you don't, as head of the Citizens' League, I'll have to demand your resignation!

  [clearing it away, Curly lays three more in a row] 

  Mr. Dill : I don't wanna make you any trouble, my friend, but this thing has gone far enough.

  [crushing them open in turn, again obliviously] 

  Mr. Dill : As a matter of fact, it's gone too far. And something's gotta be done!

  I. Doolittle - Police Commissioner : But, Mr. Dill, give me a chance. We're trying. After all, policemen are only human beings. You know how the newspapers build these things up.

  [throwing the walnuts away, Curly eats the shells]
