- Higgins: Magnum. There's nothing quite like the whine of a high-performance engine to disrupt an absolutely delightful afternoon tea. How thoughtful of you.
- Magnum: Gee, Higgins, I'm sorry. I just didn't realize...

- Higgins: Didn't think, as usual. I suppose I should be grateful you didn't bring that... that whatever-she-does back here.
- Magnum: She is a cocktail waitress, and she's at her motel freshening up.
- Higgins: [patronizing tone] Of course.
- Magnum: Oh, how is the tea going? Are you dipping scones and baking hot cross buns?
- [snickers]
- Higgins: The tea, save for your interruption, is *smashing*, absolutely smashing.
