Episode Quotes

Bennett: Damn your eyes, Dichter! Your wits slog along like a crippled mule, don't they?

Dicher (to Bristol): I'll make the assumption you don't know who you're talking to.
Bristol: That's a dead wrong assumption. I thought we made it clear to you, we know who you are. You're Sam Dichter, who fancies himself "Lord of the Gun"...
Bennett: As we all did, once.
Bristol: The problem with you is you have no memory for things. Fast hands, slow brain! Now dig into that muddy swamp you call a brain and try to conjure up a few recollections!

Dichter (to Bristol): I gotta be dead drunk, or crazy! I saw you gunned down in Monterey, I SAW IT!
Bristol: Maybe you were dead drunk then.
Dichter: The hell I was! That kid, Auburn, Max Auburn was his name. He called you into the street, and he took you by a second and a half. You were a corpse before you hit the ground!
