Harry O Season 1 Episode 15

Writer: Gene Thompson

Quote 1
PAULINE: You're the one that invited him here, remember? What do you treat him like that for?
BERNIE: Maybe I'm sentimental. I guess I'll stay that way as long as he keeps on earning twenty-five big ones a week.

Quote 2
[Harry Orwell and Lt. Trench meet for the first time.]
TRENCH: Harry Orwell?
ORWELL: Yeah, who are you?
TRENCH: Trench…Lt. Trench.
ORWELL: What do you want?
TRENCH: Maybe you. Just what do you think you're doing?
ORWELL: Trying to get some sleep.
TRENCH: You do a lot of that down in San Diego… is that it? The balmy weather kind of go to your head sometimes?
ORWELL: You know my name. And you know I'm a private detective…and I gotta license, you wanna see it?
TRENCH: Number M83456. San Diego P.D., good record, retired. Why don't you just keep it like that?
ORWELL: You did your homework.
TRENCH: We don't have a lot of palm trees….You know, I'm about to book you as an accessory, Orwell.
ORWELL: Accessory to what?
TRENCH: Don't play dumb.
ORWELL: I'm not playing dumb. That's the real me coming through.

Quote 3
TRENCH: I like the way you operate, Orwell like a cop.
ORWELL: Thank you.
TRENCH: Who knows…maybe we'll get along. Just don't ever keep anything from me.
ORWELL: And you?
TRENCH: Well, I'm simple. What I want you to get, you get. What I don't, you don't.
ORWELL, to Sgt. Roberts: Hey, how about you…don't you ever say anything?
ROBERTS: Well, if I do, I guess that would answer your question, wouldn't it?

Quote 4
BETSY: Why are you looking behind me?
ORWELL: I want to make sure Walter isn't behind you.
BETSY: Oh…did you meet Walter?
ORWELL: Yeah…he came by this afternoon.
BETSY: Isn't he cute?
ORWELL: You can shave a 400-pound gorilla, but that don't make him a house pet.
BETSY: …Would you like me to make dinner for us?
ORWELL: It depends on where Walter is? Where is he?
BETSY: He went to Santa Barbara.
ORWELL: Not far enough away…

Quote 5
BETSY: …Boy, has your line ever been busy…Well, first Kathy called…no, she called twice. And then Cindy from the Central Credit Bureau called, and she'll call again. Then a Pauline Fielding called…Is she a blonde, Harry?
ORWELL: How'd you know that?
BETSY: Girls can tell…Are you over stimulated or something
