Quotes 

• Phineas : Never close your eyes to progress, Homer. Now, I do believe, if we succeed in this venture, we will have established a first in our profession. Imagine, ransom by telegraph.

• Phineas : St Joseph?

  Barnaby West : They're playing tricks on us.

  Barnaby West : No, we're not. you can reach him from Cheyenne. Haven't you heard of the telegraph?

  Homer : How're they're gonna send a big bunch of money down that little biity wire? Now answer me that.

• Phineas : Well, Homer, my boy, fortune has smiled upon us at last. We're footsore travellers who would beg of you a crumb of food for our sadly neglected stomachs.

  Barnaby West : Funny way to beg, with guns.

• Banker : Without authorisation you can't get the money. There's no way you can get it short of robbing the bank.

  Phineas : Don't be insulting. I'm no common bank robber. And besides, it's dangerous.

  Banker : So is your position here.
