- Sam McCloud: Sir, I know this sounds like, eh, cloak and dagger, but I wonder if you could loan me your stewardess, Miss Verdige?
- Captain Anderson: Official police business?
- Sam McCloud: Hundred per cent.
- Captain Anderson: That's all right with me, but it's beyond the line of duty, maybe you'd better clear it with her?
- Sam McCloud: I'll tray and come up on her blind side.
- Chief Peter Clifford: Good luck.
- Sam McCloud: Yes, sir. I think you're gonna need it more than I will. All I got facing me is a trip to Paris.
- Chief Peter Clifford: Well, bon voyage.
- Sam McCloud: There you go.
- Sam McCloud: Whereabouts at do you hang your flight bag?
- Anne Verdige: I hang my flight bag at the Pension du Faisan d'Or.
- Sam McCloud: Now you gonna have to say that twice, just for me to misunderstand it.
- Sam McCloud: Talk about the cavalry arriving just in the nick of time. How'd you get all the way from New York?
- Sergeant Joe Broadhurst: Simple logic, McCloud. I listen to what you say, and do the exact opposite.
- Sam McCloud: Well, Chief, I hope that you don't think that I'm gettin' jumpy, but, eh, heh, the hair on the back of my neck gets to bristlin' when things ain't going my way. Something's real wrong.
- Chief Peter Clifford: That's right. There's a gun pointed at me.
