• Artemus Gordon : [West has mysteriously disappeared]  I looked all over for him. He wasn't at the Three Anchors, nobody was. And the Mermaid Tavern doesn't even exist anymore.

  Lt. Keighley : We've heard such stories from your friend West.

  Artemus Gordon : Well, this one I can vouch for! I was there!

  Lt. Keighley : So now you believe in the dragon, too.

  Artemus Gordon : No! No dragon! A bomb disguised as a dragon! It swims towards its target, explosion! No more target. No more dragon.

  Lt. Keighley : It's preposterous.

  Artemus Gordon : Do you plan to just sit there and wait 'til the S.S. Virgina and Admiral Fargett wind up at the bottom of the bay?

  Lt. Keighley : I can't spare men to hunt for West.

  Artemus Gordon : I'm not asking you to spare anybody to hunt for West. Just keep Fargett off the Virginia. *I'll* find West.

  Lt. Keighley : You're giving me no better reasons than West did, Gordon. If he's that lost, what are you going to find him with? A crystal ball? Heh, you and West, two of a kind. You're both cracked.
