Wanna play?

#1 Post by Carmen »

Wanna play???

Anybody in for a game of "quote quiz"?
It`s easy to play: One writes down a quote, whoever can guess in which episode it was, is the winner and can start the next round.
Okay, here we go

TM: "You know, Higgins, that was a bit of all right."
Higgins: "Don`t hand me that wretched understatement. I was bloody marvellous."

"Tropical Madness."

New Quote:

Higgins: "Well, how is our pugilist [Rick] doing? He obviously has what you Yanks call a glass jaw."

TC: "Glass jaw? This boy's [Rick] jaw is pure crystal. One punch and he's out like a light."

What episode are these quotes from?
The answer is obvious, old man. Logic is irrelevant. It's simply Tropical Madness. (J.Q. Higgins)

I'm gonna say this one is from "Mr. White Death" because it's early enough that Higgins is still saying overly British things like "Yanks" and this establishes that Rick isn't that good in a fight.

Hmmm, a quote.....

Much better at answering these than giving them. This one may be easy, or it may be hard....

Higgins: "This is outrageous! OUTREAGEOUS!"

Here we go, maybe a trick one, or then again maybe not with this group:

"The Hotel Dick"

which was much easier for me because I think I read this in a thread today!

Fudge.

Now I need to come up with another one and that easy one took me like 20 minutes!

TC: "Heh boy, if thats your natural scent, you have big problems!"

Nope.

Wrong Season, but there is a certain "theme" in "By Its Cover" that is repeated in the episode in question.

"Limited Engagement"

Tanaka: Magnum, you stay in the bullpen. Right now, I'm on mound.
Higgins: It's not a scratch! It's a bloody gouge!

I want to say "Foiled Again" or "Double Jeopardy", with emphasis on the latter.

I'll let James shoot me down.
