Quotes 

• Policeman : [a parrot has squawked "Mad dog!" in the pet shop, provoking pandemonium]  . What's going on around here?

  Pete Kelly : I dunno. It's a mystery to me.

  Policeman : Where is this mad dog?

  Myrtle Montrose : Oh, officer, there isn't any mad dog. It was just Gabby.

  Policeman : Who?

  Myrtle Montrose : Gabby. You know - my little parrot.

  Policeman : Oh, it's a mad parrot. I guess I gotta shoot him, huh?

  Pet Shop Proprietor : That's okay with me!

  Myrtle Montrose : If you harm a hair of his head I'll sue you.

  Pete Kelly : There's nothing the matter with the parrot. He just talks too much.

  Policeman : So do you. Shut up!

  Myrtle Montrose : Now listen officer, I can explain everything. You see I came in here to see if I could trade this parrot for this little dog. Look at him. Isn't he cute?

  Policeman : [Gabby squawks "Mad dog! Mad dog! Mad dog!"]  . I'll run the whole bunch of you in.

  Pet Shop Proprietor : Look lady, take-a da parott. Take-a da dog. Take-a da store, if you want. But please go out before I get crazy. Before everybody gets crazy.

  Myrtle Montrose : Well, do you really mean it?

  Pet Shop Proprietor : Si, with my heart and soul. Please - Go!
