- Rosemary Boxer: I think Kate might kill, but she would never steal.
- Laura Thyme: Now, that makes no sense. Killing is a hundred times worse than stealing.
- Rosemary Boxer: It isn't a question of worse or better; it's a question of character.
- Frances Caldecott: [to Jeff] I never interfere with your decisions except when they involve my money.
- Gary Pritchard: [Concerning Frances' murder] Police seem to think she was in the middle of changing her will when she was strangled. Pretty interesting, n'est-ce pas?
- Kate Pritchard: [Seeing Gary counting money] Another satisfied client, darling?
- Gary Pritchard: Well, everyone's wife isn't as tight-assed as you are, sweetheart.
- Gary Pritchard: [Referring to Laura's thermos] Is that gin you got in there?
- Laura Thyme: Beg your pardon!
- Gary Pritchard: Well, you look as if you need revving up a bit.
- Laura Thyme: Mr. Pritchard, you would be the last person I would choose to press my accelerator.
