Quotes

Dick Tracy's Dilemma

  • Police dispatcher: Calling Car 15. Calling Car 15. Car 15!
  • Pat Patton: Car 15, Patton speaking.
  • Police dispatcher: Contact Dick Tracy at once. Have him go over to the Flawless Furs warehouse. Dillon reports some shenanigans - a busted fuse box at the garage.
  • Pat Patton: Then tell him to call-tell him to call an electrician, not Dick Tracy
  • Police dispatcher: Now come on, Pat! The night watchman has disappeared. It might be homicide.
  • Pat Patton: Oh, that's different. I'll tell Dick Tracy right away!
  • Jigger, Blinking Skull Owner: Find what you're lookin' for, Tracy?
  • Dick Tracy: No... and see that I don't. I understand Hatchet Harry has been hangin' around here.
  • Jigger, Blinking Skull Owner: Why, that's a big mistake! Say, you know I run a respectable joint.
  • [referring to The Claw]
  • Sam, a henchman: Hot furs are bad enough, but he's gotta tie him up in a murder. We'll never get our dough, never! All because of your itchy hangnail!
  • [last lines]
  • [Dick Tracy breaks another date with Tess to pursue a villain]
  • Tess Trueheart: [sigh] Sometimes, I wish I had been a super criminal.
  • Vitamin Flintheart: Why, my dear?
  • Tess Trueheart: Because then I might get to see something of Mr. Dick Tracy!
