      • (Enters the Black Beauty and inspects his equipment.)
        Green Hornet: Hornet gun... check. Hornet sting... check. Let's roll, Kato.

      • Claudia: You know, I have a feeling the Green Hornet isn't as bad as people say he is. He was so polite...
        Britt: And tall, and handsome...
        Claudia: Much taller than you. There I was, tied up, helpless, about to become another victim of Colony and his gang. When out of the darkness came the Green Hornet. I hope he never gets caught. But if he does, I shall defend him for nothing.
        Britt: I'm sure he'll be delighted.
