Asst. F.B.I. Agent : Why don't we let him through?
Warren Taft : What?
Asst. F.B.I. Agent : What's the harm? He sees his wife, he plays hoochie-coochie with his kid, we pick him up at home next week, nice and easy. No media, no hostile crowd, no problem.

Asst. F.B.I. Agent : Yes, I do, sir. That's why I said what I just did.
Warren Taft : Well, you got two choices. You can stand here and do as you're told, or tomorrow morning, you can be fetching coffee for Dudley Do-Right.
