- Mrs King: I can't believe in a city like Washington, there weren't police all over the place. I thought we had more police here than any place else in the country.
- Scarecrow: [sighs] Yeah, the agents, we're tripping over each other.
- Mrs King: Foreign agents...
- Scarecrow: Foreign, domestic, neutral, commited, uncommited, freelance, uhg... you know what we've got? We've got double agents, counter agents, surveilance and counter surveilance teams.
- Mrs King: Lotsa spies...
- Scarecrow: Yeah, lotsa spies. I know it's supposed to be a secret, but you know what I think? I think espionage is the growth industry of the decade.
- Amanda King: Don't you see what this means?
- Lee Stetson: No.
- Amanda King: [sighs] It had something to do with the Agency.
- Lee Stetson: No, wrong. You haven't been tied in with anything worth killing for.
- Amanda King: Lee, I know you don't think I have a very logical mind, but I have a very logical mind. And I know that in my day to day living, I don't do anything that would warrent having a man hiding in my closet with a knife in his hand.
- Lee Stetson: You're right.
- Amanda King: I am.
- Dotty West: Amanda, I don't know why you work for a company that won't give you office space. I mean, you... you're never gonne meet anyone working at home.
- Amanda King: Mother, I don't want to meet anyone right now.
- Dotty West: Oh, Amanda, that doesn't make sense. How can you not want to meet someone you've never even seen?
- Amanda King: That was the last Captain Galaxy doll in the entire city.
- Francine Desmond: Oh boy...
- Lee Stetson: Amanda, we'll get you another one.
- Amanda King: By tomorrow? My mother and I looked for that doll for four days. It's the only thing that Philip asked for. Oh, look, I know it was an accident, but what am I supposed to tell him? Am I supposed to tell him that he almost had a wonderful birthday? He almost had a birthday that he would never forget? And he almost had the best birthday present in the entire world until one of your guys sat on it?
- Amanda King: What am I going to tell my mother? Captain Galaxy's a pile of plastic, Philips book is a vital piece of national security. I don't even know what the right book was, so that I can get him another one.
