Peter Lorre credited as playing...
Dr. Einstein
- [discussing the body count]
- Dr. Einstein: You got twelve, they got twelve.
- [angrily grabs Dr. Einstein's necktie]
- Jonathan Brewster: I've got thirteen!
- Dr. Einstein: No, Johnny, twelve - don't brag.
- Jonathan Brewster: Thirteen! There's Mr. Spinalzo and the first one in London, two in Johannesburg, one in Sydney, one in Melbourne, two in San Francisco, one in Phoenix, Arizona...
- Dr. Einstein: Phoenix?
- Jonathan Brewster: The filling station...
- Dr. Einstein: Filling station? Oh!
- [slits throat]
- Dr. Einstein: Yes.
- Jonathan Brewster: Then three in Chicago and one in South Bend. That makes thirteen.
- Dr. Einstein: You cannot count the one in South Bend. He died of pneumonia!
- Jonathan Brewster: He wouldn't have died of pneumonia if I hadn't shot him!
- Dr. Einstein: No, no, Johnny. You cannot count him. You got twelve, they got twelve. The old ladies is just as good as you are!
- Dr. Einstein: You shouldn't have killed him. Just because he know something about us, what happens?
- Jonathan Brewster: We come to him for help, and he tries to shake us down. Besides, he said I looked like Boris Karloff!
- Teddy Brewster: [showing Einstein a photo] This is the picture I was telling you about, General. Here we are, both of us. President Roosevelt and General Goethals. That's me, General, and that's you.
- Dr. Einstein: My how I've changed.
- Jonathan Brewster: Tonight, we are taking care of Mortimer.
- Dr. Einstein: But, Johnny, not tonight. I'm sleepy. We'll do it tomorrow, or the next day.
- Jonathan Brewster: Look at me, Doctor. You can see that it's got to be done, can't you?
- Dr. Einstein: Yeah, I know that look.
- Jonathan Brewster: It's a little late to dissolve our partnership.
- Dr. Einstein: Okay, okay, Johnny. Okay, we'll do it. But the quick way, huh? The quick twist like in London.
- Jonathan Brewster: No, Doctor. I think this calls for something special. I think, perhaps, the Melbourne method.
- Dr. Einstein: [cringing] No! Not the Melbourne method, please! Two hours!
- Jonathan Brewster: [pulling on surgical gloves] And now doctor... we go to work!
- Dr. Einstein: No, Johnny. I cannot operate without a drink!
- Jonathan Brewster: Pull yourself together, doctor!
- Dr. Einstein: I cannot pull myself together without a drink!
- Dr. Einstein: At least people in plays act like they've got sense.
- Mortimer Brewster: Oh, you think so? Did you ever see anybody in a play act like they got any intelligence?
- Dr. Einstein: [agonizing] How can somebody be so stupid!
- [after listening to Mortimer's description of a character in a play]
- Dr. Einstein: You know, you were right about that fellow. He wasn't very bright.
- Dr. Einstein: Alright, Mr. President, we go to Panama.
- Teddy Brewster: Bully, bully! Follow me, General. It's down south, you know.
- Dr. Einstein: [hat falling across his eyes] Well, Bon voyage!
- Dr. Einstein: [to Mortimer] Look, when Johnny's in that mood, he's a madman! He's a maniac! And then things happen. Horrible things...
- [draws finger across throat]
