Harrison Destry:
Spink, I'm forming a committee.

Spink:
A committee?

Harrison Destry:
A committee to advise me. I mean, somebody who might not be, you know, personally eligible to win the prize.

Jewel Scrogg:
Careful now, love.

Harrison Destry:
Well now, look, I don't know anybody in this town and you two know everyone. Tell you what we do. Besides you got that broad experience of human nature. Look, we make lists, put everybody's name down who's eligible, go through and discuss 'em one by one. Then next Sunday, we'll have a grand final public award ceremoney - so nobody can jump me without witnesses - and you two can sit on the platform with badges on.

Spink:
Well, but don't you think we ought to have a three-man committee... sort of spread out the risk a little?

Jewel Scrogg:
Oh, don't be silly, Spink. Who else in town is willing to admit they aren't the most deservin'?
