Lord Brett Sinclair : [cool about being much taken with the pretty girl waiting in his room] Well, the note says that a parcel has been delivered to my room.
Kay Hunter : You're disappointed?
Lord Brett Sinclair : Not at all. I think the gift-wrapping is superb. May I offer you a drink?
Kay Hunter : No, thanks. I'm here on business.
Lord Brett Sinclair : [used to ladies waiting for him in his room] Oh? Well, may I be so naïve as to inquire what your line is?
Kay Hunter : I work for British Intelligence.
Lord Brett Sinclair : Oh? Isn't that just great? I rather hoped you were a gift from the Italian Tourism Board.
Kay Hunter : I'll have to ask you to come along with us.
Lord Brett Sinclair : [as a beefy man enters] Us?
Kay Hunter : The game, as they say, is up, Lord Sinclair. I do hope you'll cooperate and not cause any trouble.
Lord Brett Sinclair : Well, could I ask you to offer me some proof that you are British?
Kay Hunter : [to the burly man] Show him our proof.
[man takes out gun from inside jacket pocket]
Kay Hunter : Convinced?

Danny Wilde : Now, what trouble did you get into? He bad?
Lord Brett Sinclair : He dead!

Kay Hunter : Stand absolutely still, this won't hurt for a minute!
Lord Brett Sinclair : Oh, good! If there's anything I can't stand is suffering when it includes pain!

Danny Wilde : [after Brett has learned of imminent danger] Well, cheer up, what can happen?
Lord Brett Sinclair : I could get killed, that's what can happen.
Danny Wilde : Not in the middle of a hotel lobby, and me as your bodyguard. You're dramatizing. Besides, I'm gonna be around you every second of the time from now on.
Lord Brett Sinclair : That's a depressing thought. Come on, I'll buy you a drink.
Danny Wilde : Okay.
Lord Brett Sinclair : I will never understand for the life of me how we always manage to let the Judge... Uh, bodyguard?
Danny Wilde : [has dropped back to pay attention to a lovely leggy girl] Ah, excuse me. I was watching... she looked suspicious. What do you think they are going to do, kidnap you in the lobby of a hotel?
Kay Hunter : [gorgeous girl, on phone, as the duo pass her in the lobby] Yes, he's in the lobby. Get over here as fast as you can. I know it's dangerous, but we've got to pick him up before they can.
