- Scanlon: Well, I think you might as well write that off. Pyle was a lush and an opportunist. Britt: You don't write off the chance that Glen Connors may still be alive. He was one of the men who framed my father. Edit
- (Talking to Mike) Britt: I could never forget about the Green Hornet. You won't let me. Come on Elaine, it's a perfect day for sailing. Elaine: You know, if I were a man, I would devote myself to catching that dreadful Green Hornet. Mike: (Scoffs) Ha!...Ha! Casey: Don't put her down, Mike. She just might do it. Mike: (Scoffs) Ha!

- The famously wealthy and reclusive Charles Delaclaire was inspired by Howard Hughes. This is an early example of what a decade later would be a cliche.
