      • Capt. Parmenter: (reading note stuck to the fake tree trunk Major Royce was wearing) Old Hekawi saying: You never can fool Indian with sap in tree.

      • Wild Eagle: Our tribe very brave warriors. Except for one thing. O'Rourke: What's that? Wild Eagle: We faint a lot.

      • Major Royce: I was once trapped in the Khyber Pass with a squadron of the 10th Ghurka Rifles. We managed to live for a whole week on nothing but curried cartridge belts. Madras style, of course. O'Rourke: I must say, sir, that our cartridge belts are not that tasty.

      • O'Rourke: With the captain's permission, I'd like to take out a search party. Something may have happened to him. Agarn: It'd be a shame if the Indians got him before he showed us how to get the Indians.

      • The visiting British major's name is Bently Royce, a mixture of Bentley Motors and Rolls-Royce, two of the most prestigous British manufacturers of motor cars. Bentley was Rolls-Royce's most serious competitor in the UK luxury car market, so Rolls bought out Bentley in 1931 -- when Bentley had financial problems -- in order to control its competition.
