Quotes 

• Captain Trunk : How's the investigation going? Any leads?

  Sledge Hammer : No, but after a few more victims get killed, we'll have more to go on.

• Sledge Hammer : You know, of all my years of being a cop, I will never figure out how people time and time again can do something like this.

  Dori : It's true. Taking out a human life is just deplorable.

  Sledge Hammer : Not that. The drawings of chalk outlines of dead bodies, that's just a ridiculous way of living!

• Captain Trunk : I feel a migraine coming on here, I know it...

  Sledge Hammer : Now, Captain, I think I have found a way of getting rid of those headaches, once and for all.

  Captain Trunk : What is that?

  Sledge Hammer : [whips out GIANT needles]  Acupuncture!

  Captain Trunk : Get away from me.

  Sledge Hammer : I'm good with these.

  Captain Trunk : I said, get away from me. Get away from me with the needles, Hammer! GET AWAY FROM ME WITH THOSE NEEDLES!

• Captain Trunk : Fifteen Elvis Presley impersonators killed in the last three weeks.

  Dori : What on Earth could be the killer's motive to murder 15 Elvis impersonators?

  Sledge Hammer : Obviously to get into the Guinness Book.

• [Hammer sneaks into the student records room of the School of Elvis Impersonators and looks under the file "Grads '86" when Mr. Yamamoto opens the door and turns on the lights] 

  Yamamoto : You're not supposed to be in here! This is the student records room. Private! I'm calling police.

  Sledge Hammer : Hold on, friend. I am the police.

  [Pulls out badge] 

  Sledge Hammer : Inspector Sledge Hammer. I'm on an investigation.

  Yamamoto : Investigation?

  Sledge Hammer : So maybe you can help me. Can you think of any past students who might have... I don't know... acted, sort of... strangely?

  Yamamoto : Yes, all of them!

  Sledge Hammer : Can you think of one who might have resorted to... murder?

  Yamamoto : I'm not answering any more questions.

  [Points to the door] 

  Yamamoto : Leave! Right now! I want to get off in time to watch "Mr. Belvedere."

  Sledge Hammer : I guess somebody has to.
