Sgt. Benson Quotes in Girl Happy (1965)

Sgt. Benson: [over the sounds of construction] Are those girls giving you any trouble?

Officer Jones: Nope, they're all quiet now.

Sgt. Benson: Will you speak up? I can't hear you.

Officer Jones: [louder] Everything's fine.

Sgt. Benson: Well, what's all that racket?

Officer Jones: I dunno. I guess they're fixin' the streets out there.

Sgt. Benson: They're what?

Officer Jones: [louder] I said I guess they're fixing the streets out there!

Sgt. Benson: Fixing the streets? At night?

Officer Jones: Yeah, I guess all those college kids get in the way during the daytime.

Police Captain: [enters; angry tone] And just who's the lame-brain for making arrests on the college group plan?

Sgt. Benson: Wait til you hear this chief...

Police Captain: [cutting him off] Everyone's been calling the station! The mayor, the chamber of commerce, the newspapers... sounds like one of your bright ideas to get publicity for yourself, Benson!

Sgt. Benson: But sir, what happened was there was a disturbance and brawl at the Kit Kat Club and so...

Police Captain: [again cutting him off] Never mind! How many did you bring in from the raid?

Sgt. Benson: Forty-six arrests.

Police Captain: Forty-six? What are you doing? Competing with Sing-Sing?

Sgt. Benson: No, sir.

Police Captain: Next thing, you'll be arresting women.

Sgt. Benson: Twenty. They're all back there.

Police Captain: Oh, no! How many children?

Sgt. Benson: None.

Police Captain: [sarcastic] Oh, how did you miss out on that?
