• [the fire crew has arrived to rescue Alonzo Hawk, who is now bouncing out of control] 

  Fire Chief : [shouting through megaphone]  Mr. Hawk! This is the Fire Chief speaking! We'll have everything under control in just a moment. Now Mr. Hawk, try to relax.

  Alonzo P. Hawk : Relax? How can I relax, you fat-head?

• [the fire crew's net had been accidentally broken by Alonzo Hawk during their attempt to rescue him] 

  Fireman : I told you we needed a new one.

  Fire Chief : You told me? What do you think I've been telling the town council? How am I supposed to buy a new net without an appropriation?

  Fireman : Well, don't get hot. I only mentioned it.

  Fire Chief : Well, you just keep the kinks out of the fire hose. That's all I want from you. I'm the Chief!
