[Ray and Fraser are trapped inside a meat locker. Both have meat wrapped around them and Ray is wearing Fraser's Stetson]
Ray VecchioSome people die in their sleep. Others die making love to a beautiful woman. I am going to die wrapped in meat.
Don't talk, Ray. You're expending body heat.
RayI'm going to freeze to death inside My Friend Flicka.
[Packer opens the door to the meat locker where Ray and Fraser are wrapped in meat]
Shoot 'em!
[Fraser leaps into action, warding off the thugs. A thug shoots at Fraser, but Fraser uses a solid, meat-wrapped, Ray as a shield. He and Ray quickly exit the meat locker]
Ray VecchioHe shot me!
The bullet couldn't penetrate the frozen meat.
[Fraser locks the door and adjusts the temperature]
RayYou used me as a human shield! [whispering] I can't believe you did that!
Ray VecchioFraser, there are hundreds of places that make pizza. What I'm looking for here is the perfect pizza at the perfect price.
Which is?
RayFree. And that's exactly what this'll be in 34 seconds. There's no way he can get a pizza here from Michigan Avenue in under a half-hour.
You mean you're using some promotional ploy in order to get something for nothing?
RayWelcome to the United States of America, Fraser.
[Diefenbaker is chasing a stolen car]
[about Dief] Stop him!
Ray VecchioUn-mush! Un-mush!
[Dief slips by Ray and continues chasing the car]
Where's your car?
RayLot B. You ought to get that dog a hearing aid!
[Sees 'no dogs' sign outside of restaurant] Oh, dear. [To Dief] You see that sign? That includes you.
No, no, no, you can't take that attitude! It's a health regulation, there's a very good reason for it.
VecchioYeah - you stink!
Ray, please. He's already feeling excluded.
VecchioWell, he should feel excluded. He's an animal!
Well, there you go. Now you've done it. Satisfied?
VecchioStrangely, yes!
VecchioI'm sitting in a closet with a Mountie being licked by a deaf wolf! ...That was the wolf, wasn't it?
Yes, Ray.
VecchioOh, thank God.
[to Dief] Well, are you coming?
You know, you let a wolf save your life... they make you pay, and pay, and pay.
VecchioThat's why I don't own a wolf.
You're a cop. You won't shoot me.
VecchioI'm not that good a cop.
Nice shot, by the way, knocking it out of the guy's hand.
VecchioOh, you liked that?
I was impressed.
I thought you would be.
You were aiming for...
VecchioHis chest.
Oh. I think I should adjust your sights.
VecchioI'd appreciate that.
Madame DeFarge, Detective Vecchio and I are on the trail of a particularly brutal killer, and we'd be appreciative of any assistance you could give us.
Make him say please.
Ray?
VecchioI'm not gonna say it.
Ray.
VecchioNo.
Ray.
VecchioNo.
Ray.
VecchioNo!
Ray.
Vecchio[grudgingly] Please.
Eddie was after the purse, and Christina dumped the purse out in her hotel room.
VecchioIt's not there.
Not now, but it was. If Eddie didn't take it, and Janice didn't take it, then somebody else must have taken it.
VecchioThere's nobody else! We're all out of bad guys!
Just keep your elbows out to the side - it'll slow your descent. [He jumps down the trash chute]
VecchioMy descent?! God, the most annoying man in the world... [Climbs into chute after Fraser]
VecchioYour hair is who you are, Fraser. It makes a statement.
Oh, I see. What does it say?
VecchioWhat?
Your hair. What is it saying?
VecchioAt the moment?
Yeah.
VecchioWell, let's see. [Uses napkin dispenser as a mirror] It's, uh, straight and slicked-back, so I guess it's got that mess-with-me-and-you're-dead style, good for the job. The contouring around the ears... that's unexpected, uh, that says... watch out, this guy might be dangerous. And then the feathering around the back? Well, that's a nod to the female demographic. So, what's it saying? It's saying, deadly and dangerous but not afraid to cry.
Really! [He picks up the napkin dispenser] What does my hair say?
VecchioOh, that's not hair, Fraser - that's pelt.
And make the puffin face.
VecchioI am not gonna make the puffin face!
Make the puffin face.
VecchioI don't even know what a puffin is!
VecchioOh, you look ridiculous.
They... they say that you believe in people. That you're the only one in the neighborhood without locks on his doors.
Yes... well, that's not entirely intentional.
VecchioSomeone stole 'em.
