Bogart: "He's not a man. He's an accountant!"
(Huck's assessment after Proulx is taken off by medics for a head wound.)
Bogart: "You grow up in a public service announcement?"
(Huck doesn't care for Fraser's constant spouting of facts.)
Fraser: "And above all, you must try not to think."
Stan: "Yeah, not thinking. That's what got me into this, Fraser."
Oliva: "Boy, your parents must have been wading in the shallow end of the gene pool."
Welsh: "Yeah, well, it's still way uptown from the tree you fell out of."
Welsh: "Oh... never gonna hear the end of this."
(After Stan hits a home run.)
Fraser: "Oh great, blind and deaf." Fraser: "The caribou, the elk the beaver? They too can talk?" Francesca: "Why don't you field this one, Harding?" Fraser: "Oh, don't be silly. I'm not embarrassed or bored when you sniff things." Quinn: "If you can't find the caribou, you can't know if you'll them." Welsh: "Miss Vecchio. Do the words 'over my dead body' mean anything to you?"
Fraser: "It is customary to exchange ghost stories around a campfire in the wilderness." Stan: (to Fraser) "I don't know who has less sex, me or you, but at least I still think about women."
Stan: "Why are we investigating the deceased?" Welsh: "Let it go, Detective. Remember, you're only pretending to an Italian." Stan: "Frannie, you're a woman... apparently. What do women look for in a man?" Stan: "He saw it all? (Fraser nods) Dogs, huh? They have all the fun." Stan: "You know, Fraser, from the second floor, there is always the other option.
Fraser: "Which is?" Welsh: "You're going to defend yourself by drowning somebody to death?" Fraser: "We're not really going to leave a note, are we?" Sherman: "You under the care of a qualified psychiatrist, Constable?" Stan: "So we should kill her to avoid any bad press, sir?" Welsh: "Detective, I have never met anyone with as great a capacity to piss off people as you." Stan: "Fraser, what are you doing?" Stan: "Pitter patter, let's get at her. Let's find that car."
Fraser: "My name is Constable Benton Fraser--" Welsh: "What is she doing?" Francesca: "Oh my god, it's a werewolf." Goodfellow: "That's great. Guy dies, and we're not supposed to worry about it because the last person to see him has a red suit, and we got a dog for a witness." Dief howls.
Welsh: (sarcastically) "Oh, wonderful." Francesca: "What about the curse?" Stan: "We got proof, Fraser, you smelled the dog. Smelled the dog... Fraser, I think I"ve been working with you too long."
Fraser: "Dief!" Stan: "You all right?" Goodfellow: "It's been a real slice." Damian Kowalski: "Raymond, pitter patter. Let's get at her."
Fraser: "They feel her life may in danger while here in Chicago?" Welsh: "What the hell is that?" Dewey: "I'm not going to allow my music to be prostituted like that. I'm not going to compromise my principles." Stan: "Have you ever been to Florida?!" Stan (whispering): "I thought she was pretty good". Stan: "That man has the rhythm of a stick." Stan: "You seen Earl?" Francesca: "So, is this like a prerequisite for being a Mountie? You just have to be completely nutty?" Stan: "Somebody oughta check that guy's freezer." Stan: "Fraser - come on – Turnbull’s got his pumpkin pants in a knot – thinks Tracey’s gonna make that date at the music hall tonight." Fraser: "No, I assure you it is a polar bear." Fraser: "Oh may, look at this, look at this. This is nice." Fraser: "Excuse me for a second I have to have a word with Santa." "She was never that big on Christmas... or me for that matter." Fraser: "Anything wrong, Francesca?" Fraser (to Turnbull): "I want you to lock up after I go. You don't let anyone in until I return. I want you to guard this man [Tommy] with your life." Stan: "You, you, have a choice You could have stayed at the consulate. You
could have stayed at the station, or, or..." Welsh: "Ms. Vecchio this is police work. It could be dangerous." Agent: "So you can go into this trance on command." Fraser Sr.: "I imagine you have a number of questions you want to ask. Like, is this eternity or just a
stopping place...Is death a transition or the end of the line, and if it's the end of the line,
do I still have to shave? Questions along those lines." Stan: "Churches make me nervous" "Well the thing is you really can't love someone until you know them." Thatcher: "What is he doing?" Stan: "He's her brother...adopted brother!"
Fraser: "Ummm... Hi, I'm a Constable. Eh well, obviously you are also a Constable. My
name is..eh..My Constable name is Constable Benton Fraser." Frannie (to Stan): "Hey! HEY!! Mitts off the hardware!"
Stan: "Uh, Francesca meet uh, Constable Mackenzie." Dief: "Grrruff." Fraser: "And you know, you don't have to call me Constable, Constable. You can just
call me Benton or Fraser. Eh, That's my name. Well, Benton is my name..." Turnbull: "Uh...ahhh...uhhhh, perhaps Constable Fraser is playing a book on tape and doesn't want to be disturbed?!" Thatcher: "Constable Fraser!" Maggie: "I see why you like her [Thatcher]." Fraser: "Ray, Meg and I have a lot of common." Stan (to Fraser): "You got a thing for her?" Fraser (to Turnbull): "Could you please tear that article out." Stan: "My bowels seem okay." Turnbull: "Gas? You say you have gas, sir?" Francesca: "He was born on the tundra, that's where he belongs. You'll kill him if you take him to Toronto." Fraser: (grinning) "Ray." Ray: "Who are you?" Ray: "For a full year, I am deep undercover, never waiting in line, always getting the best tables at the best restaurants. I live in a 9,000 square foot adobe house at the edge of the desert with butler named Nero, who brings me buttermilk night and day. And everywhere I go, I sit in the back seat of a black limo with my elbow on the gangster lean, and all this, all this you wipe out with one word!" Ray: "So you're me." Welsh: "Oh Ray." Stan: "You ever feel like you don't know who you are? Like if you weren't around somebody or had somebody wasn't around you, that you wouldn't be you. Or at least not the you that you think you are. You know, you ever feel like that?" Welsh: "What are you doing?" Stan: "Where'd they go? (Ray comes up behind him, startling cop) Hey!" Fraser: "He killed my mother. I would have done the same as you." Stan: "You know, Fraser, being your partner has certain drawbacks?" Stan: "Ice field? What the hell is an ice field?" Huey: "One seven F-O-C seven six. Hey, foc, foc!" Fraser: "Ray, look turtles!" Fraser: "Ray. You all right?" Welsh: "You know, Ray, when sometimes somebody gets lost in the system, sometimes even their lawyers can't find them for a few days." Stan: "Fraser, I'm not up to this. My idea of health is a cup of coffee ... without sugar." Turnbull: "Speaking of tallow, sir. I've got a half of mind to strap on the old feedbag myself." Fraser: "When I first came to Chicago. I felt as though I was from another planet." Stan: "You gotta push through the cold and the pain and keep moving, 'cause that's what partnership's all about. There's red ships and green ships but no ships like partnership." Ray: "For all we know, they could be stuck in a block of ice somewhere or something. I mean it's not like I care. It's--" Thatcher: "Fraser?" Stella: "Look, you're making me dizzy." (in regards to Francesca's and Welsh's pacing) Cyrus: "Memo to myself. Never try to raise an army of liberation out of a bunch of potato farmers from Idaho!"
"I'm too young to die!"
(After Dief grumbles his opinion of how Fraser threw a baseball.)
Easy Money
Quinn: "I've been getting into this native roots thing and it seems to work. Besides, I thought the Tonto act might impress that little jackass."
(After she took over the press conference, not to her superior's delight.)
(Fraser is sniffing the sidewalk while people walk by, staring at him.)
Young Fraser: "I could find them."
Quinn: "Not before they die of old age."
A Likely Story
Stan: "We're not in the wilderness."
Fraser: "It's an approximation."
Stan: No, it's not, Fraser. We are in a park in the middle of Chicago. I had to step over a wino and kick two junkies to get here."
Welsh: "Because we're doing a full investigation."
Francesca: "Yeah, 'cause he's Italian."
Welsh: "What?"
Francesca: "He's Italian, so he's gotta be Mafia, right?"
Stan: "Ciao, sir."
Francesca: "You're asking me? Why, what sick thing are you up to?"
Stan: "I'm just asking. I've got a friend. So, this love-at-first- sight thing. Is it legit? I mean, if you don't make a good first impression, are you dead in the water or what?" (stuffs sandwich in mouth)
Francesca: "Well, you're not deformed ... or anything... really. I don't know. It really depends. Did you show her your disgusting tattoo or how far you could spit, or, that charming thing when you kick holes through the ceiling tiles?"
(Dief watched Luanne through the window as she undressed.)
Odds
Stan: "The stairs."
(Stan not too sympathetic after Fraser injures his back in jump out of window.)
(To Francesca, who is armed with water pistol.)
Stan: "No, we're going to break in, look through her personal possessions, and use her can without a warrant."
(They go to check out Denny's apartment.)
The Ladies Man
(After Fraser mentions primitive means of extracting information from prisoners, and how the current penal system is much kinder.)
(Said sarcastically to Bedford, in regards to Beth Botrelle.)
Stan: "Just people I don't like, sir."
Fraser: "Well, no, actually, Ray, even people you do like. I mean if you think about Sandor, who you beat about the head--"
Mojo Rising
Fraser: "Driving."
Stan: "This is not driving, this is walking with a vehicle."
(Fraser annoyingly obeys all speed limits.)
Lolla: "You first came to Chicago on the trail of the killers of your daddy, and you stayed... so did your daddy."
Gerome: "She's placing a curse on your station."
Welsh: "In here, who would notice?"
(Upon hearing Dief howl in station.)
Fraser: "Wolf, actually."
Fraser: "It is quite beautiful, isn't it?"
Welsh: "If it's not out of here in two seconds you'll face the curse of unemployment."
(Welsh orders Francesca to remove anti-voodoo material from her desk.)
Stan: "Dief's deaf."
Fraser: "Good point, Ray."
(Fraser yells at wolf, who is out of eyesight.)
Fraser: "Yeah."
Stan: "Sure you're okay?"
Fraser: "Yeah, I'm fine."
Stan: "The reason I ask is you're on fire."
Fraser: "Oh."
(The back of Fraser's peacoat is on fire.)
Fraser: "Of what?"
Aaron: "He's Canadian."
Mountie Sings the Blues
Thatcher: "Danger? (snorts) As if those pencil-necked geeks in Industry, Trade and Commerce would know danger if it jumped up and pierced their spleen with an ice pick."
Fraser: "The sound of a grown man squealing in a manner not becoming a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police."
(Upon hearing sound of Turnbull squealing in delight that Tracy will be staying at the Consulate.)
Huey: "Oh please. You don't have any no music ... or principles."
Dunn: "Once, to see Mickey."
Stan: "Did he give you a gun?"
Dunn: "He's a mouse, mister. I was six!"
Fraser: "Good, as in, attractive?"
Stan: "I don't care."
(After the back-up singer leaves the studio after hearing George describe what he thinks of her singing.)
(To himself, about Fraser's movements while singing.)
Fraser: "No, I was, uh…"
Stan: "Movin' like a blocka wood."
Fraser: "I'm sorry."
Stan: "Singin' like a bird."
Fraser: "Really?"
Stan: "I didn't tell ya what kinda bird."
Fraser: "Oh…"
(After Tracey cornered Fraser into singing backup.)
(To Turnbull, who is treating her to great lunch.)
(Commenting about fanatical fan Carver Dunn.)
(At the precinct after Turnbull calls Tracey in missing from the consulate.)
Good for the Soul
Dief: {growl}
Fraser: "Well, he lives in a *mall*. If you keep eating those pizzas we'll
see how you look in side of a year!"
(Fraser to Dief at a Christmas exhibit in a mall)
Vendor: "The *gentleman* has a good eye."
Fraser: "How much for this?"
Stan: "It's a log!"
Fraser: "Yes, would $5 be sufficient?"
Vendor: "Yeah, sure."
Fraser: "There you are, Merry Christmas."
Vendor: "Merry Christmas"
Stan: "Fraser, it's a log!"
Fraser: "Marvelous log!"
(Fraser, Stan and teddy bear salesman at the mall)
(Fraser goes after Santa)
Turnbull: "Fraser, it's me, Turnbull."
Fraser. "Oh, Turnbull, I took you for Santa."
(Kowalski about Stella)
Francesca: "No, it's ah..my art class. Next term we're suppose to study nudes,
and I just really don't think I could be in a class with anybody *nude*."
Fraser: "You know, Francesca, as beautiful and natural as the human body is
I..eh..understand completely what you mean. brrah.. I wonder if you can
help me with some information?"
Francesca: "Sure, What's up?
Fraser: "I need to know everything your have on Mr. Warfield, his prior arrests,
surveillance reports, known accomplices, whether he poses in the nude...."
Francesca: "Was...was that a joke?"
Fraser: "Yes."
Francesca: "Ooh, that was so good!"
(Fraser and Francesca)
Turnbull: "Trouble, Sir?"
Fraser: "Of a kind."
Turnbull: "Trouble is my middle name."
Fraser: "Well Tommy your in good...... well your in hands."
(Fraser leaves)
Turnbull (to Tommy): "You look like a natural baritone. Do you know the words of Santa Drives Pickup?"
Fraser: "Ray, I was hoping to be able to convince Mr. Warfield to do the right thing."
Stan: "He's a wiseguy. He's never done a right thing in his entire life!"
Fraser: "Well, maybe now is the time to start."
Goons in car: "{laughing loudly}"
*BAM!* as Fraser and Ray pound hard on the top of the car.
(Fraser, Ray/Stan, 2 Warfield goons)
Dead Men Don't Throw Rice
Frannie: " I want to do it."
Fraser: "Francesca, the leftenant is right."
Frannie: "Shut up, Fraser!"
Fraser: "As you wish".
Fraser: "Well, not exactly. It takes about 15 minutes to go under and 15 minutes to come out."
Agent: "How long can you stay under?"
Fraser: "Ah...once in a lean-to on the shores of the Nahanni I was under for exactly 36 hours."
Agent: "Then what happened?"
Fraser: "Well, then I had to...ah.."
Agent: "You had to pee, Constable?"
Fraser: "Well, yes, I had consumed roughly the equivalent of a dugout canoes worth of bark tea."
(Fraser and FBI agent)
Fraser: "Eh, yes, actually."
Fraser Sr.: "Eh, well, you're on your own there."
Fraser: "That's great, Dad, that's really enlightening!"
(Fraser Sr. and Fraser talking in the "Borderland")
Say Amen
Fraser: "That's an odd reaction"
Stan: "Well, I'm more of a.... human sacrifice kind of guy."
Fraser: "Ah."
"Sure you can, the hard thing is to love them after you know them."
(Detective Jack Huey and Detective Tom Dewey, at the station house referring to the question, "Is there love at first sight?")
Stan: "Following his instinct!"
Hunting Season
Maggie: "I'm Constable Maggie Mackenzie from Inuvik."
Fraser: "Oh, Mackenzie. The name is familar."
Maggie: "Eh well, you are. Your father and my mother were friends. I certainly know your
name. You're infamous in the north."
Fraser: "Oh, yes, Well, Ummm...."
(Fraser when he meets Maggie Mackenzie at the Consulate.)
Maggie: "Hi."
Frannie: "Hi."
Stan: "She's tryin' to get some info on a couple-a guys."
Maggie: "Mike and Mark Torrelli? - They're brothers?"
Frannie: "Um, - are you and Fras(er), friends from up north and everything?"
Maggie: "We just met today."
Frannie: "Oh, really? Cuz -- you look, closer... than that. (Clears throat.) How long you been a Mountie?"
Maggie: "5 years."
Frannie: "Oh. I'm on the waiting list for the academy."
Maggie: "Congratulations."
Frannie: "Thanks!... Yeah the uniforms are nice, cuz, you know, they're black and that's always slimming and elegant. Whereas your uniforms are… - kinda make a statement, ya know?"
Maggie: "Yeah, they're an attention-getter alright."
Frannie: "Yeah."
Maggie: "Whether you want them to be or not, they're --"
Frannie: "Kinda like when you're having a bad hair day."
Maggie: "Or trying to get past a cougar who's standing between you and some drinking water."
Fraser: (Chuckles)
Frannie: "Yeah...yeah. Yeah, I hate that."
Stan: "Wow, I just came outta my coma -- uh, can you uh, do a little work Francesca? So, uh, do you think you're gonna be transferred down here to the windy city of Chicago with some..."
Maggie: "No, no. I wouldn't last a week in the city. In fact I'm finding it uh, hard to breathe right here, right now."
Frannie: "Well, that's probably cuz you don't have enough air. Why don't you guys give her some air? SOME AIR?!" (Now wildly waving her arms.)
Fraser: "Oh..."
(At the precinct, Frannie's desk, where an increasingly anxiety-stricken Francesca is first presented with Maggie in red serge.)
Fraser: "Where? Oh my God!"
(pours a glass of water and starts smoothing down the hair on the back of his head. Maggie
enters)
Maggie: "Constable Fraser."
Fraser: "Eh, Morning, Constable Mackenzie, I just, eh, I have a head...I mean I have my
hair. Well, I mean I slept on my head--Well, not *on* my head because...(sigh) You
know in the words of Joe O'Bodiac, a hat can cover a multitude on sins!"
Fraser Sr.: "You'll never get anywhere like that, son. I know it's not easy but try and
relax and be yourself. In fact, try and relax and be someone else."
Maggie: "Were you, were you just in the closet?"
Fraser Sr.: "She talking to me?"
Fraser: "She seems to be talking to you."
Fraser Sr.: "You can see me?"
Maggie: "Yes. Of course."
Fraser: "Holy moly!"
Fraser Sr.: "Great Scott!"
Maggie: "My God you look just like Bob Fraser!"
(Fraser, Fraser Sr., and Maggie in Fraser's office.)
Thatcher: "Constable Fraser was born disturbed Turnbull, NOW GET OUTTA MY WAY!"
(In the Consulate hallway where they hear the laughter of Fraser, Fraser Sr. and Maggie coming from Fraser's office.)
Fraser: "Major Thatcher, sorry!"
Thatcher: "For...?"
Fraser: I'm not sure... This is Constable Mackenzie. (then to Maggie) Inspector
Thatcher, and Constable Turnbull."
Maggie: "Pleased to meet you, Hi."
Thatcher: "Are you here officially?"
Turnbull: "Or unofficially? (Thatcher elbows him deftly in the gut) Humpff.."
Fraser: "Constable Mackenzie is here on the trail of some suspects."
Thatcher: In your closet?"
Fraser: "At the moment, yes."
Thatcher: "Why wasn't I informed?"
(Fraser, Maggie Mackenzie, Thatcher, and Turnbull in Fraser's office at the Consulate.)
Fraser: "Inspector Thatcher and I have a purely...... We should get back on the case."
Ray: "Yeah, your both canadian and you both kind of odd."
Fraser: "Who, for Rosie?!! Oh, for Maggie, eh, it depends on what you mean by 'thing' Ray."
Stan: "Uh, ok well to be honest with ya, um, I, I...I got some feelings for her."
Fraser: "Uh-huh Well then we both have feelings."
Stan: "I knew it, I knew it. A great girl comes along, eh, one that I could really get close to and you're after her like a mad, rabid Canadian dog."
Fraser: "Ray, Maggie and I have a lot in common."
Stan: "Yeah, you're both Canadian 'n you're both kinda odd!"
Fraser: "I do feel oddly comfortable with her."
Stan: "Oddly comfortable. That's great. Love Canadian-style."
Fraser: "You know she might prefer you."
Stan: "Oh yeah, she's not gonna go for the good-lookin' freak who speaks the same language, she's gonna go for the Chicago flatfoot with the - experimental hair…"
(Outside the precinct on the way to Stan's car while Maggie steps away to help a homeless woman.)
Turnbull: "Yes, Sir!"
Fraser: "Could you please tear that article out a little more quickly."
Turnbull: "Yes, Sir!"
Fraser: "Would you please remove your hands from the article."
(Fraser tears the article out)
Fraser: "Thank you kindly."
Turnbull: "Pleasure, Sir."
Call of the Wild
Fraser: "I'm relieved."
(After Stan thinks he got affected by nerve gas.)
Frobisher: "A powerful gas. It could out thousands, possibly even more."
(An example of miscommunication.)
Thatcher: "That's a bit drastic, don't you think?"
Francesca: "Look, I've been to Toronto. Trust me, nothing can survive there."
Stan: "Ray?"
Fraser: "Ray Vecchio."
Stan: "Ray Vecchio?"
(Fraser is confronted by the real Ray Vecchio for the first time in a year.)
Stan: "Who? Me?"
Ray: "Yeah, you."
Stan: "What do you mean?"
Ray: "What do they call you?"
Stan: "Who?"
Ray: "Am I still speaking English here?!"
(Ray, still masquerading as Armando, is trying to interrogate Stan.)
Fraser: "It's good to see you, Ray." (smiles)
Ray: "It's good to see you too, Benny." (they hug)
Stan: (snidely) "Oh, Benny, that's cute."
Stan: "And you're not you."
Ray: "That's a good one. Unlike the clothes."
Stan: "Something wrong with them?"
Ray: "Well, nothing if you're a ... bag lady. You see, I had a rep. I was a slick dresser."
Stan: "Oh yeah, like a style pig, you mean."
Ray: (grinning) "You kill me, funny guy. I see it's going to take a lot of work to get my reputation back in place."
Stan: "What place was that?"
Ray: "Well, you see, these three goons are gonna get one call each. They're gonna call Vegas. And when they do, Armando Langoustini is going to go up like flash paper. Time to get my old life back."
Stan: "But that's my life."
Ray: "I'm afraid it is."
Stan: "What are you grinning about?"
Fraser: (putting arms on shoulders of Ray and Stan) "I knew you two would hit it off."
Ray/Stan: "Yeah?"
Welsh: "No, I mean, uh... I can see this is going to be confusing, huh? Look, you be Ray Vecchio 'cause you were Ray Vecchio to start with."
Ray: "Right."
Stan: "And, uh, who am I?"
Welsh: "Good question. You can be Stanley Kowalski."
Ray: "Stanley Kowalski??" (grinning)
Welsh: "His father had a big thing for Marlon Brando."
Stan: "So, um, I just... uh... okay."
Ray: "Later, Stanley."
Fraser: "Why? What?"
Fraser Sr.: "Finish your sentence, son. An incomplete sentence is an early indicator of a softening mind."
(Fraser at a loss for words when he enters the closet and finds his father's office all packed up!)
Thatcher: "Never."
Stan: "Me neither."
Huey: "We're practicing."
Welsh: "For what? To pass yourselves as two guys with serious head wounds?"
(Huey and Dewey in back seat practicing comedy routines on stake-out.)
Ray: "Jumpy." (then Thatcher does it to Ray)
Thatcher: "It's this place."
Ray: "Hey!"
Stan: "Jumpy."
Fraser Sr.: "I hope not, Ben. I hope you never get a chance to find out."
Ray: "Still talking to yourself, Benny?"
(Ray wakes up in hospital to find Benny talking to himself, at least from his point of view.)
Fraser: "Such as?"
(Clinging to the wing of an airplane in flight!)
Fraser: "A field of ice."
Fraser Sr.: "The Yank tends to miss the obvious."
Fraser: "Sometimes."
Stan: "Sometimes? Well, what is it the rest of the time?"
Fraser: "It would still be a field of ice."
Dewey: "Hey, watch how you pronounce that. It may not fly on television."
Stan: "Turtles? Aaaaahhhhh!"
(Fraser and Stan right before the Mountie throws Stan out of the airplane.)
Stan: "I'm under 30 feet of snow. How could I be all right?"
Fraser: "Well, you're alive."
Ray: "A human tragedy, sir."
(Complaining about hiking through Yukon wilderness.)
Thatcher: "Yes, Turnbull, you do have half a mind."
Stan: "Which you are."
Fraser: "All right, Ray, you're starting to blither."
(As Fraser climbs mountain, with Stan on his back, and Fraser Sr. just hanging around on a ledge to offer advice.)
Stella: "You care."
Ray: "You think so?"
Stella: "I think you have a generous heart."
Ray: "Well, thank you, Stella."
Francesca/Welsh: (sarcastically) "Oh please...."
Fraser: (to Stan) "Duty."
Stan: "Barks."
Ray: (grinning at Stella) "You're making me dizzy."
(Turbull, as Cyrus' men open fire on the Mounties hiding behind the sub.)
