Sheriff Morey Johnson : [sees light flashing on police radio] Red light's flashing, Harry. You got any time for the machine?
Harry : Machine? Right.
[into radio]
Harry : Roger, Highway Patrol. CS-1 out.
Sheriff Morey Johnson : What was that signal, Harry?
Harry : Signal? Oh, just the State Highway Patrol. Just a routine check.
Sheriff Morey Johnson : Locate McNeil wherever he is and send him out for chewing gum.
Harry : McNeil? Right!
Sheriff Morey Johnson : When I tell you to watch that machine of yours, you say, "Machine? Right." When I give you a message for McNeil, you say, "McNeil? Right." There's something about the way you make a question of it and then say "right" that gets on my nerves.
Harry : Nerves?
Sheriff Morey Johnson : [sighs] Right.

Sheriff Morey Johnson : You'd think we're chasing a ghost... an invisible horse and an invisible cowboy. Harry, throw me that canteen. I haven't got enough spit left to wet a stick of gum.
