Lou Francis (Lou Costello): [about graduating] This is the happiest day of my life, how did I ever graduate?
Bud Alexander (Bud Abbott): [whispering] I slipped the guy twenty bucks, shhhhh!

Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Bud, I think Tommy Nelson is Frankenstein, Frankenstein!

Det. Roberts: [Tommy Nelson is gone] How did he get out?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Installments.
Det. Roberts: Installments?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Yeah, he did a Gypsy Rose Lee, come here!
[they find Tommy’s clothes lying about]
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): That, that’s all that’s left of him.
Det. Roberts: Evidently Nelson changed clothes… what was he wearing when you last saw him?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Air… nothing but air… and then he asked me how he looked, wearing air!
Det. Roberts: What are you talking about?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): I went to shake his hand, his hand was gone, I looked up to speak to him, his head was gone. Then he took off his shirt, his body was gone, he took off his pants, his legs were gone! Then he spoke to me, I was gone.

Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: I know, you saw this man disappear into thin air. Do you always see things?

Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: Did you ever see somebody disappear before?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Yes sir, I have.
Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: This may explain it, seeing things. What happened?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): One day me and my brother were walking down the street… my brother disappeared.
Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: Into thin air?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): No, into a man hole.
Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: How about voices? Do you ever hear strange voices?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): Yes sir, I do.
Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: Aha, and when do you hear these strange voices?
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): When I get the wrong number on the telephone.

Dr. James C. Turner, Police Psychiatrist: [hypotizing Lou with a watch] Tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock…
Lou Francis (Lou Costello): [gasps] You forgot to say the mouse went up the clock!
