George Stone : Hey, what's that you say?
Malone : I said that you're a lying member of a no good race.

George Stone : [long uncomfortable pause and then] Giuseppe Petri.
Malone : [turns to Ness] Jeez, I knew it! That's all you need is one thieving wop on the team!

George Stone : What's that you said?
Malone : [poking him belligerently in the chest with his clipboard] I said that you're a lying member of a no-good race.

Malone : [suddenly Malone is quite amused, saying to Ness] Oh, I like him.
Ness : [nervously] Yeah, I like him, too.
Malone : [Stone draws back his weapon and Malone says to him] You just joined the treasury department, son.
George Stone : [both smile and shake hands] Yeah, okay.

Malone : And policemen.
Ness : Well, which are we, gentlemen - policemen, or lost causes?
