[frustrated] Medium height, medium build, medium complexion - I'd have to be a medium to find Howard from the description like that Detroit tailor gives me!

Lee Chan:
[arriving late and in a hurry] We want two good seats down front!
Ticket Seller: Sorry, we're sold out.
Horace 'Knock-Out' Wellington: He's sold out?
[to the ticket taker] Do you know who we are?
Ticket Seller:
[as he closes down the ticket window] Sure, a couple of guys that ain't gonna see the fight.

Lee Chan: Gosh, that's a pretty girl sitting with your friend!
Lieutenant Riggs: That's his daughter Linda. She's got her nose so high in the air, she'd drown in a rainstorm.

Lee Chan: Oh, Mr. Moto?
Mr. Moto: Yes, Lee?
Lee Chan: I though you would like to know I got a letter from Pop yesterday.
Mr. Moto: Oh, you did?
Lee Chan: Mm-hmm. He sent his best to you.
Mr. Moto: Thank you. And, uh, how is your honorable father enjoying his homelife in beautiful Honolulu?
Lee Chan: He seems fine, but he kind of worries about me. Y'see, I'm really supposed to be studying art here at the university... but gosh, I want to be a detective!
Mr. Moto:
[chuckles] I understand. My parents wanted me to be an acrobat.

Lieutenant Riggs: A sock in the eye ain't homicide. Maybe his ticker went bad on him. Who knows?
Mr. Moto: No one... except the coroner.
