• Alf Laurel : Well, what do you think we better do?

  Bert Hardy : That's entirely up to you. You thought of a way to get us into this mess. Now, think of a way to get us out of it.

• Bert Hardy : [Stranded in a hotel with no clothes, Laurel suggests they dress up like the "fellas that look like Eskimos" in "Singapore" - using bed quilts and towels as their set of clothes]  That sounds screwy to me. But, any old port in a storm.

  Alf Laurel : It might be a good idea.

  Bert Hardy : You've gotta be right once in your life!

• Alf Laurel : What'd he say?

  Bert Hardy : I don't know?

  Man wearing a Turban : Don't you speak Arabic?

  Bert Hardy : Oh, no sir. We're a couple of Singapore Eskimos.

• Alf Laurel : Funny looking dames, aren't they?

  Bert Hardy : I don't know. I kinda like that big, fat blonde.

  Alf Laurel : The little one wasn't so bad.

  Bert Hardy : They're cute.

• Bert Hardy : What's the matter? We can explain everything?

  Alice : You can't explain those two old cronies!

  Alf Laurel : They're not old cronies. They're a couple of old welfare workers.

• Alice : Well, sit down and have a drink.

  Bert Hardy : We will as soon as we get rid of these two old battle-axes.

  Alf Laurel : Yeah, we'll soon get rid of them.

  [the two old battle-axes walk up behind them] 

  Alice : Is that so!

  Bert Hardy : Oh, we want you to meet the two girls we met this afternoon.

  Alf Laurel : Yeah, Lily and Alice.

  Mrs. Daphne Hardy : I know all about them - you ungrateful hound!

• Finn : Before, it was two to one. Now, it's three to two. That makes it even.

  Alf Laurel : You must be balmy. We haven't seen you since...

  Finn : Balmy, am I! At 'em boys!

• Alf Laurel : You're sure lookin' good, Stanley. But, how you have altered.

  Stan : You've altered too, but, you haven't changed a bit.
