  • Mayor: And if they traced it back to the company...
  • Slade: You'd be out of a job, for one thing.
  • Slade: Stop tap dancing around it, son. You just got caught with your pants down, that's all.
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Well, we're very close to that synthetic hormone, sir, and I thought that we should go ahead and...
  • Slade: Yes, what did the police really have on you?
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Well Gutchel was paid out of the slush fund, so there's no way he can be tied to the company. Uh, I disposed of any animals that could be traceable. It's just this guy, Madison that was here...
  • Slade: Yes, yes, yes. Um. I'll put in the--in the fix.
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Pardon?
  • Slade: Well it's not the police we have to worry about. No, it's those damn yellow journalists that's the trouble. They're out to ruin our public image.
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Yes, sir.
  • Slade: Yes, now will you get on back to your chemistry set and I'll take care of everything. We'll put in the fix. Don't worry about a thing. Go on, go on.
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Thank you, sir.
  • Slade: Yes. Don't talk to any reporters.
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Yes, sir.
  • Mayor: Oh, Mr Slade, I'd have to go to the City Council for a reward.
  • Slade: Now common now, let's stop fussing. I'll put up the money. I'll put up the money. Listen, the wedding is tomorrow. I want you to pick up all this silver, all the tables, put 'em back the way it should be later.
  • Mayor: Look, that's very generous of you, Mr. Slade.
  • Slade: Mayor, listen, we have got four products, four products pending with the Food and Drug Administration right now. Four products. And that's a lot of politics involved.
  • Mayor: Oh, I see. And if they traced it back to the company...
  • Slade: You mean if they traced it back here to us?
  • Mayor: Yeah.
  • Slade: Well you'd be out of a job for one thing. Arthur. Mayor Ledeux, my future son-in-law, Arthur Hill.
  • Mayor: Oh, how you do?
  • Scientist Arthur Helms: Nice to meet you.
  • Slade: Arthur is my number one boy.
  • Mayor: Oh.
  • Slade: My number one boy, yes, sir.
