Quote O' Matic
The Chief (from monitor, on phone):
"Greg, please come into my office!"
Greg:
"OK, Chief. I'll- I'll be right there. (phone starts ringing) The Chief's on the phone- I mean, I'll be right- I'll be back."
Greg (now in Chief's office, phone is still ringing):
"Yeah, Chief. Chief! Well, the Chief isn't here, but I better answer this phone. (clears throat and picks it up) ACME Crimenet!"
The Chief:
"(on phone) This is your Chief."
Greg:
"Oh, hi, Chief! Where are ya now?"
The Chief:
"I am unavailable, due to classified business. I have left these taped voice-mail instructions. Please dial 1 to continue."
Greg:
"Voice-mail! I love voice-mail. All right. (he dials 1, then looks at the Chief's papers)"
The Chief:
"Please do not touch my papers- listen up!"
Greg:
"(puts down the papers) Yeah."
The Chief:
"1st question"
Greg:
"Oh, I guess that would be 3. (he dials 3)"
The Chief:
"Well, I'm not surprised. 2nd question"
Greg:
"Hmm... ah! That's a tough choice. I'm gonna go with 3. (he dials 3 again)"
The Chief:
"Thank you. Inform the Gumshoes. 3rd question"
Greg:
"Ooh! Uh, I'm gonna go, uh, 3-a-mundo! (he dials 3 again)"
The Chief:
"I thought you'd choose that one. Greg, go away!
(disappointed, Greg hangs up)"
Greg:
"You know, I don't need her. I'll dial Information. I'll get Gladys' number myself. That's no problem. (he dials Information and picks up the receiver)"
Voice:
"(on phone, like the Chief's, only more nasally and higher) Hello, Information."
Greg:
"Uh, yeah- I'm calling for Gladys."
Voice:
"Gladys who?"
Greg:
"The Chief's gorgeous cousin."
Voice:
"Who's calling?"
Greg:
"This is Greg."
Voice:
"Greg?"
Greg:
"Yeah?"
Voice:
"Go away. (the phone clicks, and Greg hangs up)"
