The Amazing Mr. Williams (1939)

Don Beddoe: Police Detective Deever

Quotes 

• Police Captain McGovern : Wait a minute. You wouldn't happen to have any ideas on how to catch the Phantom Slugger would you?

  Lieutenant Kenny Williams : Why sure. Dress this monkey up in women's clothes and send him out in the street as a decoy.

  Detective Deever : What?

  Lieutenant Kenny Williams : Well, you can do it, Deever, you're the prettiest cop in the force. Look at that waistline Chief. Nice and slender. And those beautiful big, brown eyes. Just pour a pint of perfume over him and you'd be prefect.

  Detective Deever : Cut out those rattle-brain ideas of yours, this is the Police Department not the Follies.
