Quotes[]
- Magnum: Well, you could have got us both arrested! Then who would have found your little grandson?
- Garwood: We ain't arrested! We're riding around in this fancy Italian race car of yours! Real inconspicuous! El Higgo told me you were very good, but I'm beginning to wonder, buddy.
- Magnum: He said that?!
- T.C.: You know, there's that smell again. It's smells kinda funny, like old gym shorts. You smell it Thomas?
- Magnum: (says nothing)
- T.C.: It's gettin' worse. It smells like old Brussels sprouts.
- Magnum: Ok! Ok! Ok...It's me. Some guy gave me this sample of "Patchismo" cologne.
- T.C.: "Patchismo" col...Is this the same guy that gave you the "PatWax"?
- Magnum: Yes, and I put some on and now I can't wash it off.
- T.C.: Man, you should have smelled that stuff before you put it on.
- Magnum: It doesn't smell like anything. It's supposed to take on your own natural scent.
- T.C.: Heh, boy if that's your own natural scent you've got a serious problem.
- Magnum: Look, will you stop it please and help me find William Daniels!
- T.C.: Yeah, sure. You just stay downwind.
