    • Quotes
      • Lord Wexford: [he enters the pub] Whisky, please, Miss, large one. 'Pon my soul, if it isn't young Harry Fitzgerald. Well, how are you my boy?
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Lord Wexford, I'm glad to see you again, Sir.
      • Lord Wexford: Here, have a drink. Fill that up, whatever it is.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Light ale.
      • Lord Wexford: Now, where have you been hiding all these years?
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Well, things weren't so good for us after father died so I don't hit the high spots like a used to.
      • Lord Wexford: Reformed character, eh? Well, here we are,
      • [he hands Fitzgerald his drink]
      • Lord Wexford: Well, here's joy.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Cheers!
      • Lord Wexford: We couldn't have met at a better time. This is going to be quite a night.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Oh, yeah?
      • Lord Wexford: Yes, this is where Fleet Street shows Scotland Yard what's what.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Oh, really?
      • Lord Wexford: Yeah, you know what these policemen are - good fellows, conscientious - but solid bone from the neck up.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Mmm... very solid, yes.
      • Lord Wexford: Look, keep this to yourself but my friends and I are hoping to pull off something that Scotland Yard has failed to do for months... yes, we're going to lay that scoundrel Flannelfoot by the heels.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Well, that's most astonishing.
      • Lord Wexford: You know I have a sort of feeling that Scotland Yard are going to look pretty silly before the night's finished.
      • [they both laugh]
      • policeman: Excuse me, Sergeant, Superintendent Carter would like a word with you on the phone.
      • Sgt. Fitzgerald: Oh, thanks, Pat. Excuse me, won't you, Sir?
      • Lord Wexford: Superintendent...? Then who...?
      • policeman: That's Detective Sergeant Fitzgerald, Sir.
