• Hamilton Burger : At about five minutes to nine on the night of the murder, did you receive a phone call which caused you...

  Perry Mason : Objection, your Honor. Incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial, and improper questioning in that it takes up matters not part of the direct examination.

  Judge : Sustained.

  Hamilton Burger : Now Mr. Dorrell, did you have an appointment at nine o'clock on the night of the murder with the defendant at your house...

  Perry Mason : Objection, your Honor, on the same grounds.

  Hamilton Burger : Your Honor, these questions are certainly germane to the issues in this case.

  Perry Mason : Your Honor, the prosecution had the opportunity of bringing out all these germane issues when it presented its case. The prosecution chose not to do so.

  Judge : Sustained. Mr. Burger, you will confine yourself to proper cross-examination.

  Hamilton Burger : Very well, I have no further questions of the witness at this time. I will bring out what I want to bring out on rebuttal!

  Perry Mason : That would be when the defense is finished with its case.

  Hamilton Burger : Naturally, Mr. Mason.

  Della Street : One dinner.

  Perry Mason : Mmm...

  Della Street : Payable now.

• Perry Mason : Do you have an autopsy report yet?

  Lt. Tragg : No, I expect it by the time I get back downtown.

  Perry Mason : Then, you just suspect murder?

  Lt. Tragg : I guess I'm the gloomy type.
