Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Himself - Host : [Alfred Hitchcock appears in coattails and top hat. He removes the hat, places it upturned on a table, and proceeds to remove cutlery including a knife, a tea cup and saucer, and a pair of salt and pepper shakers from it]  Oh, good evening. I hope you don't mind but I have to eat on the job tonight. We're terribly rushed. But no matter how busy, I think the least one can do is to dress properly. Tonight's supper show is called "The Derelicts." And there isn't much to tell you about it. Naturally, we shall, uh, populate our stage with a few delinquents. Ah... Rabbit. I could have pulled that out of the hat.

• [last lines] 

  Himself - Host : As you might expect, before Mr. Goodfellow and Mr. Shanks had reached the street they had walked into the inviting arms of two luscious young ladies. And the current was especially to Goodfellow's liking. But since the ladies were policewomen, his enjoyment was, at best, momentary.
