Episode Quotes
Artemus: You know, it's the free sarsaparilla that always gets me. Look, we're on vacation anyway. What do you say we just spend a day or two right here in Justice?
James: Bingo, dancing in the streets--how can we go wrong?
James: Bingo, dancing in the streets--how can we go wrong?
Lucrece Posey: First, let me introduce you to the gentlemen who will take care of this matter. Gallito, you know. On my right, Brutus. He dearly loves to smash things. And Cyril, who loves to play with matches. Snakes Tolliver, an explosives expert, and Pinto, a very quiet gentleman who has gone into considerable research in the area of pain... inflicting it, of course. And finally Sergei, from the Steppes of Russia. He dearly loves to eat. Someday he'll swallow the whole world. Hope it won't give him indigestion.
Lucrece Posey: Now, my question is, who tipped you off?
James: Do you mind repeating that last question?
Lucrece Posey: I said who... why should I repeat it?
James: Because when you say "tipped," your nose crinkles adorably, do you know that?
Lucrece Posey: Mr. West...
James: And another point I'd like to admit. if you'd quit hiding behind that tomboy outfit. I mean, really, you could be quite spectacular. Why don't you get yourself into something silky and soft and, uh... revealing?

James: Trouble with you is you're spoiled.
