Sam Buffington: John Richards

Quotes 

• John Richards : Just disappeared, Smith.

  Whispering Smith : Just disappeared, Chief.

  John Richards : Just disappeared, George.

  George Romack : That's what the man said, Chief. I heard him.

  Whispering Smith : All right, you two, but I'm telling you I saw it - the body of Frank Molloy.

• John Richards : Well, I don't care. I don't care if it's a copy of the gun that killed Alexander Hamilton. This whole thing's ridiculous! I send you out to check up on a hold-up and you come back with some story about a disappearing body and a gun that killed President Lincoln!

• John Richards : Where do you think you're goin'?

  George Romack : He's my partner.

  John Richards : Well, you just sit yourself right down *partner*. I want someone to be around in case Smitty's wrong. Frnak Molloy might stop in and say he saw a missing detective last night.

• John Richards : Do you know what she could do if we couldn't produce a body? She could go to the mayor and the city counselmen. We'd all be out on the street.

  Whispering Smith : Chief, I swear I saw him.

  John Richards : Will you stop saying that! I don't care what you think you saw... but I'll tell you what you'd better see. You'd better see Frank Molloy - alive or dead - and you better bring him back here so I can see him! Understand?

• John Richards : Well, what are you waiting for?

  George Romack : Me? Nothing. You told me to stay around here and wait.

  John Richards : I know what I said, now get moving, *partner*.

• Whispering Smith : I'd like to try something.

  John Richards : Is it legal?

  Whispering Smith : I'll nail Molloy's killer so no jury will ever turn him loose.

  John Richards : Well, I'll take that for "yes".
