Lord Brett Sinclair
- Pekoo Rayne: Isn't your friend supposed to meet us here?
- Lord Brett Sinclair: What else are friends for except to desert you in the hour of need?
- Pekoo Rayne: [they're trapped in barred room] What are you looking for?
- Lord Brett Sinclair: [inspecting old car parts] The rest of the car, so we can drive out of here. See, there's the carburettor.
- [Pekoo cannot stifle her giggles]
- Inspector Blanchard: Gentlemen, these are very busy times, and I'm badly overworked. If you wish to make something of this, let me assure you these incidents are not uncommon.
- Lord Brett Sinclair: Incidents?
- Inspector Blanchard: The body of some poor unfortunate is found in our beautiful bay - meant for pleasure rather than death - the lungs full of saltwater, no marks, no bruises... a simple casualty of the undertow.
- Lord Brett Sinclair: Now wait just one moment, Inspector. I'm beginning to wonder if there is not *another* casualty here. Something in the line of a proper police investigation.
- Inspector Blanchard: I do my best under the circumstances.
- Danny Wilde: What circumstances is that?
- Inspector Blanchard: [shakes his head] You must understand, gentlemen, that I am hopelessly understaffed, and this is the holiday season.
- [shrugs]
- Danny Wilde: I got you! So this girl that we fish out of the water ends up nothing more than shark bait, huh? What did you call it a minute ago, "an incident"? I'll tell you something! If this was some maharani or maharaja or something like that, you'd have your police cars driving all over the water looking for evidence and suspects...
- [Pekoo appears from the morgue]
- Inspector Blanchard: Have you positively identified the body?
- Pekoo Rayne: [with a heavy heart] It's Julie.
- Lord Brett Sinclair: [along with Pekoe, entering room filled with birdsong] Anybody home?
- [nobody]
- Lord Brett Sinclair: Tarzan must be out. And Jane must be shopping too.
- Danny Wilde: [re the ornithologist] I found out something else.
- Lord Brett Sinclair: What's that?
- Danny Wilde: [stating the obvious] He likes birds.
- [Brett loses patience]
- Danny Wilde: Uh, I had a cousin who gave his mother for her birthday a very exotic bird, it spoke five different languages. Well, a couple of days later, he gets worried, he calls his mother, and he says, "Listen, Ma, did you get my present?" And she said...
- Lord Brett Sinclair: "Delicious."
- Danny Wilde: Wait a minute. "Delicious," he says. "But, Ma, that was a genuine South African cockamamie bird and it spoke five different languages!" And she said...
- Lord Brett Sinclair: "Then he should have said something."
- Lord Brett Sinclair: [when there's no explosion to blow down the door] Not to worry, Daniel. You get an X for effort.
