• Clementi Sabourin : What's going on between you two?

  Mr. O'Hara : I don't like your inference.

  Clementi Sabourin : Whether you like it or not, you seem to be getting very chummy.

  Bridget Kelly : Why are you so interested? You've got four cases going on that I know of. You remind me of a doctor treating all his patients at the same time.

• Clementi Sabourin : Here's a check, for $2 million, from Mrs. Ryan.

  Mr. O'Hara : [a bit taken aback, looking at the check]  What for?

  Clementi Sabourin : She just bought 2 million shares of Sabouranium.

  Bridget Kelly : What's Sabouranium?

  Clementi Sabourin : It's a company that we're forming today. We capitalize at $10 million.

  Mr. O'Hara : [skeptical]  Just like that... And where are we digging?

  Herbert Bauman - Clementi's lawyer : Nowhere! We buy some land, show a lot of expenses, and throw the whole company into receivership. It's *very* simple.

  Clementi Sabourin : All right gentlemen, go to work!

• Mr. O'Hara : [managing to retrieve a check that Sabourin had falsely endorsed]  It's lucky the bank teller was a girl I've known for several years.
