Episode Notes
Bart drinks beer in this episode. In most others, he's a teetotaler.
Private Heaven states in the dialogue that he hails from Henderson, North Carolina. The script writer must have been using a map because there really is such a town.
Bart whistles the Maverick theme music in this episode.
Episode Quotes
Bart: Mostly, you don't catch me hanging around Army posts. I don't have a hankering for the military life. But this fort was different. There was always a big poker game going on in the Sutler's store. Trappers in from the wilds would take a hand and some of those cavalry boys in blue were pretty sharp card players. You know the kind: when payday came around they'd wind up with most of the money in the barracks. So, whenever I was in the neighborhood, I'd drop in and try to even things up a little.
O'Dell: My old pappy always used to say, "Once you get the call, don't backslide."
Bart: The what?
O'Dell: My pappy.
Bart: That's what I thought you said.
Bart: The poor are always tryin' to get the rich and they usually do.
Captain Berger: Captain Berger, Officer of the Day.
Bart: Nice to meet you, Captain. Pull up a chair. There's still room for one more.
Bart: This is an enlistment paper!
Col. Percy: Well, read the small print, Bart, it's a short term - only 180 days.
Bart: Me, in the Army!?! In the cavalry? Why you must be outta your mind, Sam. Why I don't know the first thing about bein' a soldier and I sure don't wanna learn.
Col. Percy: There's always the stockade.
Benedict: You like money, don't you?
Bart: Well, who doesn't?
O'Dell: You got a true gambler's heart, Maverick.
Bart: Well, I have to in order to play against you, O'Dell.
O'Dell: That's not what I mean. Berger might come in, slap another six months on your hitch.
Bart: The way I been performin', it'll be just a matter a days before they offer me money to leave.
Benedict: Maverick, it's been said you love money more than anything else.
Bart: It's been said right.
Bart: Lotta things about me you don't know, Rogers.
Benedict: (about Heaven) Favor, what favor?
Bart: He doesn't know it yet but I'm gonna pay him to do my extra detail.
Jed: You have anymore questions?
Bart: No, just as long as I get paid.
Bart: Well, good evening.
Captain Berger: 'Ten-tion!
Bart: Don't be ridiculous.
Acando: What has happened to Maverick?
Catherine: Why do you ask?
Acando: He was the only one of the three that had wisdom.
Catherine: And I thought you were a good judge of people. He was working for my husband.
Acando: Then he was working for peace.
Catherine: The court martial board has convicted him of treason. He hangs tomorrow morning.
Acando: You could save him, with a word!
Catherine: I will not save him.
Acando: I wonder which one of us is the savage?
