- Beth Davenport: Two years ago when I first met you, I thought, 'This is the one', and I took out my little lariat and I swung it over my head and I took dead aim, and I tossed. I must have thrown it 50 times since then. But I gotta hand it to you, Jim, you're a tough catch. Sometime, I don't know, last year I guess, I sort of settled for friend and I started looking for someone with more long range possibilities. David looked like a good candidate.
- Jim Rockford: Thanks, but I'm still jealous.
- Jim Rockford: This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.
- Harry: Jim, it's Harry. We've been waiting on you two hours. The forks! Where's the forks? Lasagna ain't no finger food!
- Jim Rockford: [to Beth] Well you know honey, when you take a chance on someone, you gotta be ready to get hurt. That doesn't mean you should stop taking chances. If you stop, you're really through.
- Dave Delaroux: Say are you absolutely certain that those checks are in the ledger? I mean you're sure you didn't make a mistake or misread them, did you?
- Jim Rockford: Yeah, I'm sure. You know something Dave, you're beginning to get on my nerves.
- Dave Delaroux: Well what I meant was...
- Jim Rockford: I said they're there, they're there. Now I will give you a signed affidavit. Beth here can notarize it in the presence of one of the waiters, if we can get one to come to the table, okay?
- Dave Delaroux: [Snaps his fingers, and a waiter immediately comes to their table] Would you take this gentleman's order, please?
- Jim Rockford: Forget it, lost my appetite.
- Jim Rockford: It's just progress, Mr Hanson. Marketing and promotion, those are the watch-words of today's progressive business man, Mr Hanson.
