Fast and Loose

Joel Sloane:
Ho-hum.

Joel Sloane:
Go away.

Garda Sloane:
Come back later.

Joel Sloane:
Nobody home.

Joel Sloane:
[Talking to himself in bathroom mirror] I don't know who you are, my friend, but if you stand still, I'll shave you.

Joel Sloane:
[to Garda] If you see a wolf at the door, beat it. Tell him he's got the wrong address.

Joel Sloane:
[to Garda as he's leaving] If a customer comes with money in his pocket, shoot first and ask questions afterward.

Nicholas Torrent:
[Referring to Sloane's inappropriate tirade] I must apologize for Wilkes, Mr. Sloane. He's been librarian here so long he probably imagines this is his property. Poor chap! I think he's beginning to lose his mind.

Joel Sloane:
It was a hundred miles away a minute ago.

Garda Sloane:
Well, I'm going downstairs and get a paper.

Joel Sloane:
For what?

Garda Sloane:
Oh, just to see if any of our friends have been murdered this morning.

'Lucky' Nolan:
[Resentfully] You have a peculiar genius for mixing in my affairs.

Joel Sloane:
You have some peculiar affairs.

'Lucky' Nolan:
[Threateningly] I'm going to show you the unpleasant side of snooping, Mr. Sloane.

'Lucky' Nolan:
[after Joel gets the jump on Nolan and takes away his gun] I see you don't fight fair, Mr. Sloane.

Joel Sloane:
Now I'll tell you what you're going to do. You're going to call up and instruct those men to let my wife go. She's to phone me from outside. I don't want to sound melodramatic, Mr. Nolan, but to save my wife any discomfort, I would cheerfully kill a dozen guys like you.
