• Sam McCloud : [after introducing himself]  Now that everybody knows who I am, I'd kinda like to get even. Look Miss, if he knows your name better than you do, we're gonna be here all night, because that's the easiest question I'm gonna ask.

  Diane Fredericks : Diane Fredericks.

  Sam McCloud : [writing down her name]  Diane Fredericks. You seen anybody go in or out that bedroom?

  Diane Fredericks : Hah!

  Sam McCloud : I'll record that as a yes. Who?

  Diane Fredericks : I wasn't taking tickets.

• Sam McCloud : You don't have to tell me your name, Mr. King, I'd recognize you with or without your glasses.

  Doug King : [sighs]  Swell.

  [puts his glasses back on] 

  Sam McCloud : Sure do admire the way you sing.

  Doug King : Thank you. Listen, I'll do fourteen choruses of anything you want if you just forget you saw me here.

  Sam McCloud : I couldn't very well forget a big TV star, could I? Even if I wanted to.

• Sam McCloud : Wait a minute, wait a minute. This girl was at the party the other night.

  Sgt. Joe Broadhurst : If you're talking about the party I think you're talking about, I don't wanna talk about it.

• Sam McCloud : Karen Chandler, isn't she the lady that they just released on bail?

  Sgt. Joe Broadhurst : That's no lady, McCloud, that's a hot potato. She's been indicted for paying off anybody with enough clout to keep her in business. If she ever decided to talk, a lot of itchy palms would be wrapped around bars.

• Det. Sgt. Reese : [taking a glance at McCloud's I.D]  Sam McCloud. Waddayaknow, Roy, he's one of us.

  Sam McCloud : You'd better be carrying something beside your drivers licence, or we're gonna start this dance again and this time I'll lead.

• Sam McCloud : Just because that body disappeared doesn't mean I'm gonna stop lookin' for it.

• Sgt. Joe Broadhurst : So you pay to keep her quiet.

  Sam McCloud : She squeezing anybody else?

  Murphy Michaels : Everybody with a secret and enough bread to keep it that way.

  Sam McCloud : How 'bout Doug King?

  Murphy Michaels : Oh, he's 'n worse shape than me, he's on his third wife!

  Sgt. Joe Broadhurst : What about Senator Ferris?

  Murphy Michaels : Oh, that eh, church going, smut hating, defender of the public morals? He's paying through the nose, too.

• Sam McCloud : And I'm jugglin' a few theories in my head as to why she and the other girls were killed.

  Peter B. Clifford : I'll tell you why they were killed, because we're dealing with a psycho!
