• Zeppo : Hey, do you know who's on this boat? Maurice Chevalier the movie actor. I just ran into him.

  Groucho : Did you hurt him?

  Chico : How do you know it was Chevalier?

  Zeppo : I got his passport. Right there.

  Groucho : Now, he can't get off the boat.

  Chico : [Pointing to Harpo]  Hey, he looks like Chevalier. I can look like Chevalier.

  Groucho : I certainly look like Chevalier.

  Zeppo : But, that's not enough. You gotta sing one of Chevalier's songs to get off this boat.

  [singing] 

  Zeppo : "If a nightingale, could sing like you, they'd sing much better than you do..."

  Groucho : Outstanding. You sing like that and they'll throw us all off the boat.

• Zeppo : Everybody seems to be having nearly as much fun as I am.

• Lucille : So, here you are! Loafing around with these tramps!

  Alky Briggs : I tell ya, I come down to see Joe Helton.

  Zeppo : Don't you think we better go?

  Groucho : What? And leave this woman here alone with her husband? Suppose her sweetheart came in?

• Alky Briggs : Okay, he's in there. When he comes out, plug him.

  Zeppo : What do we plug him with?

  Alky Briggs : [referring to guns]  Didn't I give you two "gats"?

  Groucho : We had to drown the "gats", but we saved you a little black "gitten".
