Quotes 

• Inspector Thomas Brackenreid : Lads, you wouldn't believe it if you'd seen it yourselves: a great, long creature, scales, sharp teeth, huge, saucer-like eyes, red-rimmed and full of lust for blood. Crabtree, what do you know about this demon in the lake?

  Constable George Crabtree : I'm not entirely convinced, sir.

  Inspector Thomas Brackenreid : You don't believe in sea monsters?

  Constable George Crabtree : Well, obviously, there are monsters in the sea, sir; that's why they call them sea monsters. But I've never heard of any lake monsters. I just can't imagine anything so dastardly living in fresh water.

  Inspector Thomas Brackenreid : Crabtree, wait a minute. You're telling me that you believe in zombies, werewolves, vampires, Martians, Venusians, curses, voodoo, ghosts, and, apparently, sea monsters. But a creature in Lake Ontario that both I and Detective Murdoch have witnessed is beyond the scope of your otherwise vivid imagination. You're telling me that?

  Constable George Crabtree : Sir, I can't attest to what you witnessed. I'm afraid I remain a skeptic.

• Constable George Crabtree : Sir, can I ask you a personal question?

  Detective William Murdoch : Yes?

  Constable George Crabtree : Well, how is it that you don't feel the heat?

  Detective William Murdoch : I assure you, George, I am quite uncomfortable.

  Constable George Crabtree : But sir, it's just that I'm fairly soaked through with sweat here, and you've nary a hair out of place.

  Detective William Murdoch : I believe in propriety, George, no matter the temperature.
