Block-Heads
1938
Stan: You remember how dumb I used to be? Oliver: Yeah? Stan: Well, I'm better now.
Stan: If you want me to go, I'll stay as long as you like.
Oliver: But, Dear, I haven't seen Stan in 20 years. Mrs Hardy: I couldn't see him in a hundred years.
Stan: How long did you say it would take us to get up there? Oliver: Oh, just a jiffy. Stan: How far is a jiffy? Oliver: About three shakes of a dead lamb's tail. Stan: I didn't think it was so far.
Oliver: (Ollie's house key, attached to his pants, is stuck in the lock, so to free Ollie, he had to remove his pants; Stan easily removes the key from the lock) Why didn't you tell me you had the key out of the lock? Stan: Well, you didn't ask me. Oliver: "You didn't ask me". Stan: Gee, that's pretty underwear. Oliver: Don't get personal.
Stan: Do you think your wife would mind if I smoked my pipe? Oliver: Of course not. What's all right with me is okay with her. Stan: I know, but a lot of dames are particular. Oliver: Well yes, but... What do you mean calling my wife a dame?
Stan: What's a knick-knack? Oliver: Oh a knick-knack is a thing that sits on top of a whatnot.
(repeated line) Stan: There's going to be a fight.
Mrs Hardy: (adorably) And make that hour short.
Mrs Hardy: (coming back from store) So you were only going to be gone an hour!
Stan: (to 901 guy) There's going to be a fight. Stan: (to bypassers) There's going to be a fight. Stan: (to guy going into apartment) Hey, there's going to be a fight. Stan: (to desk guy) You better call an ambulance. It's going to be terrible. There's going to be a fight.
Oliver: Ha ha ha! Come see my grandfather. My grandfather left. He said, "Hello, sugar!"
