Quotes 

• [Detective and Coroner goes to Porgy's door, knocks on door] 

  Detective : All right. Come on out both of you, beggars. Step lively.

  [Porgy opens the door] 

  Detective : What's your name?

  Porgy : Porgy. You know me, sir. You seeing me on Meeting Street?

  Coroner : Oh, of course, you're the goat man. I didn't recognize you without your wagon. I'm the coronor, not the policeman. Now, this dead one Crown. You knew him by sight, didn't you. You'd know him if you saw him again?

  Porgy : It... seems like I remember him, when he uses to come around.

  Detective : Well, you're gonna look on him again right now. Come on.

  Coroner : There's nothing to be afraid of. All you got to do is view the body as a witness and tell us who it is.

  Porgy : You want me to look on Crown's face?

  Coroner : That's all.
