• Professor Jordan : [about Captain Crusoe]  Whomever teaches him a phrase, he gets the tone and inflection of that person's voice exactly. A parrot paragon.

• John Steed : Frank Elrick. He was engaged on counter-counter-counterespionage.

  Emma Peel : Well, somebody countered his counter. Where was this, eh, found?
