- Chuck: I'll see that he does as soon as he gets one.
- Ferdie: [looking at an old house with no paint] What did I tell you, Chuck? Anyplace painted dark brown, I never liked it.

- [Chuck and Ferdie are shown descending a flight of stairs after being informed that they have obtained Moose Matson's inheritance]
- Ferdie: Hey, Chuck, we don't want no roadhouse. Anything you get for nothin' is no good. Let's go back to the gas station.
- Chuck: [annoyed] Now, that's fine. Just when you get an opportunity to advance yourself, a chance to become somebody, you want to be a gas station attendant!
- [while being chased by two policemen, Ferdie and Chuck are in the back seat of Moose Matson's car]
- Ferdie: I want to get out of here! I want to go back to the gas station! I wanna...

- Ferdie: It's awful quiet. Ain't it?
- Moose Matson: [weakly] Pull over some place, will ya?
- [Moose Matson is mortally wounded. Ferdie and Chuck watch as he reaches into the pocket of his coat]
- Moose Matson: [weakly] Lefty... get a doctor... will ya?
- Chuck: Lefty? Who is Lefty?
- Ferdie: I don't know.
- Chuck: Lefty isn't here.
- [Matson reaches into the pocket of his coat and pulls out a piece of paper. He looks at it for a few seconds before he succumbs to his gunshot wound]
- [Ferdie has just tossed one of Chuck's suitcases onto a bus that's heading south. He looks rather panicked.]
- Ferdie: Hey! Which way are you going?
- Harry Hoskins: Why, north of course.
- Ferdie: You're going north? Don't you wish you were going south?
- Chuck: Why?
- Ferdie: That's the way your bag went.
- [the day after being fired from their job at a nightclub. Chuck and Ferdie can be seen at a gas station. Both are sitting down. Chuck looks upset while Ferdie looks apologetic.]

- Ferdie: I apologize.
- Chuck: [annoyed] Never mind.

- Ferdie: Hey, Chuck!
- Chuck: Oh, don't bother me Ferdie, I'm busy.
- [Chuck continues writing until he notices Ferdie's balloons]
- Chuck: And stop playing with those balloons!
- Ferdie: I have time to blow 'em up.
- Chuck: Put those balloons away!
- Ferdie: [Puts the balloon in his pocket and stands up] Okay.
- Chuck: Come on, get on the job, we're busy.
