Quotes 

• Sheriff Andy Taylor : What's small potatoes to some folks can be *mighty* important to others.

• Sheriff Andy Taylor : No chance of getting Aunt Bee's old pickles back, is there?

  Barney Fife : They're scattered from Oregon to Nova Scotia.

• Sheriff Andy Taylor : Somehow, between now and the contest, we gonna have to eat up all the store pickles that Aunt Bee's got on hand.

  Barney Fife : Why don't we get rid of them the same way we got rid of the others?

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : No, no, that won't work. See, she's gotta see them pickles disappear and she's gotta see us likin' them so much that she'll wanna make another batch.

  Barney Fife : I gotta tell ya, my heart ain't in this!

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : Well, it's not so much your heart we need, it's your stomach.

• Sheriff Andy Taylor : Sixteen jars. Well, there's only one thing to do. That's what we shoulda done in the first place.

  Barney Fife : You mean...

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : Learn to love 'em.

• Barney Fife : [Barney sits down to have some toast and jelly with Andy when they both smell something]  You been doin' some paintin' in here?

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : No. No, probably just some glue Opie's usin' on model airplanes.

  Barney Fife : No, don't smell like glue to me. Smells more like ammonia.

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : You don't reckon that gas stove's leakin' do you?

  Barney Fife : [Barney is about to take a bite of his toast and suddenly recoils]  I found it!

  [points to the jelly] 

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : Aunt Bee was in here workin' yesterday.

  Barney Fife : [they open the cupboard to find it filled with jars]  Don't tell me Aunt Bee is makin' marmalade now!

  Sheriff Andy Taylor : Don't just stand there. Get the suitcase!
