• Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : [Rocky's on the couch in Jim's trailer, the programme, 'Falcone''s just starting, and Jim's in the kitchen, fixing snacks. The theme for the TV show's playing on the set, and Rocky's really into it. Falcone shoots someone, and the screen goes dark, and the name; 'Falcone' fills the screen. Rocky yells for Jim to hurry up]  Come on, come on, come on!

  Jim Rockford : [Off-camera, and a bit annoyed]  I'll be right there!

  TV Falcone : [Aiming his gun at the unseen villain]  Freeze, turkey!

  Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : [Rocky smiles, and yells]  *There!*

  [Rocky claps his hands with glee] 

  Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : There!

  [Rocky turns to Jim, who's just sitting down, and trying to place all the food down] 

  Jim Rockford : Oh, oh, I'm sorry...

  Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : [Quickly changing the subject back to Falcone]  anyway, that's the part that I really like. Ain't that something - the way he says

  [Rocky makes a fist, and gets into his 'Falcone' character - 'tough'-voice, and all] 

  Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : ; 'Freeze, turkey', all, real loud, like that

  [Rocky says it again - more emphasis] 

  Joseph 'Rocky' Rockford : 'freeze, turkey!'
