- Fraser: Ray, do you think I expect too much from people?
- Ray Vecchio: Well, let's take us climbing up the side of this building, for example.
- Fraser: Okay.
- Ray Vecchio: Is the building on fire?
- Fraser: Ah, no.
- Ray Vecchio: Is there a helpless person trapped up on the roof?
- Fraser: No.
- Ray Vecchio: Is there a hostage to rescue?
- Fraser: Not that I'm aware of, no.
- Ray Vecchio: Then we're climbing this building because...?
- Fraser: Oh, I see. Because I expect too much from people.
- Ray Vecchio: [admiring John Taylor's car] 66 T-Bird, 72 Riviera.
- John Taylor: A Riv? Mint?
- Ray Vecchio: Uh, was. I've, uh, gone through a couple of them recently.
- Fraser: They were blown up.
- Ray Vecchio: Look, Benny, if you want some help, you're gonna have to register a dispute.
- Fraser: You're sure?
- Ray Vecchio: Yes, well that's what they do here, they handle disputes.
- Fraser: I won't be making a fuss?
- Ray Vecchio: Well, of course you will, that's the whole point.
- Fraser: Ah.
- [Fraser walks out of the camera shot, pause, he walks back]
- Fraser: I don't have to raise my voice, do I?
- Mackenzie King: "It's A Wonderful Life," right?
- Fraser: Yes, actually. 32 times. It was the Reverend's favorite film. Well, that and "The Passion of Joan of Arc".
- Mackenzie King: No, you see that's why movies are dangerous, Fraser. They take young minds and twist them into believing things like, like courage and hope and one man can make a difference. This may come as a shock to you and the Reverend, but real life is not a Frank Capra movie.
- Ray Vecchio: [just before Fraser's filibuster] You know, you're wasting your time.
- Fraser: Possibly.
- Ray Vecchio: The best you're going to get is a bad case of laryngitis.
- Fraser: Probably.
- Ray Vecchio: [sighs] Lozenges?
- Fraser: Cherry-flavoured?
- Ray Vecchio: On my way.
- Fraser: Thank you kindly.
- Ray Vecchio: [examining his new car] Look, both you and I know you gotta turn this baby over, Al.
- Al Grosso: Ray, you're beating me up here. I'm bleeding all over the floor!
- Fraser: I got them into this, Ray.
- Ray Vecchio: No, what you did was, you helped them clean up that hellhole! If they want any more help than that, tell 'em to call '60 Minutes'!
- Fraser: Everybody has a right to a roof over their heads.
- Ray Vecchio: Yeah, as long as they can pay the rent! What is that? Is that rust, Al? Do I see rust there?
- Al Grosso: That's primer.
- Ray Vecchio: Yeah, and if I was wearin' a dress, I'd be a woman.
- Fraser: [looking closely at the bottom of the car] Ohhh, dear.
- Ray Vecchio: Ohhh, dear. What do we have here? Oh, yeah! Would you look at that, huh? Huh? Whaddya got to say now, Al?
- Al Grosso: Okay! I'll drop off five hundred, but that's it!
- Fraser: Well, that would make the final price... oh, well, how much can a frame be worth anyway?
- Ray Vecchio: FRAME?
- Fraser: Yes, it's spot-welded. It's quite excellent work. Except for this slight contour on the brazing, you really wouldn't know that this vehicle had been severed in half. I'm sure there's still a lot of it that's salvageable.
