• Slattery : Mr. Wiley, I've always considered you a very fascinating man.

  Click Wiley : Thanks.

  Slattery : So fascinating, in fact, that I've been spending the last few days studying your life's work. Digging into the past. Tracing your career, as it were.

  Click Wiley : Why... I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about.

  Slattery : Then permit me to refresh your memory. In 1932, traveling under the name of Frank Benson, you inserted an ad in the Personal Column of a Waukesha paper for the heirs of a millionaire - who existed only in your imagination. According to you, he died in New York without leaving a will. You offered to investigate all claims for the slight fee of 10 dollars each - *just* to cover expenses. You got quite a collection of 10-spots out of it - - to investigate the will of a man who never existed.

  Ed Olson : [butting in before Wiley can respond]  They deserved it. Every one of those apple-knockers who sent in ten dollars must've been lying. Trying to get something for nothing.

• Slattery : Well, did you find her?

  Actress - Dawn Glory's 'Mother' : Sorry, kid, but they tossed me out.

  Slattery : Ah, horse radish!

• Slattery : Don't worry. I'll find this Glory dame. I'm gonna make a long distance call and check on some dope on this guy Wiley.
