Voice over Department Store PA system : All maintenance personnel off the floor. Bringing in the guard dogs now.
Red Leary : To hell with them dogs. They treat 'em better than us. They rush us outta' here like animals.
Janitor in Department Store : Let's not argue now, Sam. Those dogs ate up a man here once.
Red Leary : Ate him?
Janitor in Department Store : Yeah. Wrong man came on duty, dogs ate him up. They'll go through a plate-glass window to get at ya'. A man don't fool around with those kinda' animals.
