Fast Company (1938)

Donald Douglas: Lt. James Flanner

Quotes 

• Lt. James Flanner : [to Joel]  Langner tells me that you've worked on some cases of stolen books... that you've helped the insurance companies quite a bit.

  Steve Langner : Any favors he does we pay him for. There's not an altruistic bone in his body.

  Garda Sloane : Anything you want to know about my husband's bones, Lieutenant, you can ask me.

• Joel Sloane : Oh, no, you're on the wrong track, Lieutenant. I killed Brockler myself. I waved a $10 dollar bill over his head, and he broke his neck jumping for it.

  Lt. James Flanner : This is serious, Sloane.

  Joel Sloane : All right, if you want to find Brockler's murderer, ask Brockler. Offer a reward. He'll talk dead or alive.

• Lt. James Flanner : Otto Brockler was murdered tonight.

  Garda Sloane : Ohhh.

  Joel Sloane : Well, if you're looking for a statement from me, I am not bogged down with grief.
