  Gianni Arrosio : Ah, yeah. And you're thinking this fairy will jump on a chair and scream bloody murder if he sees a mouse, right?

  Roberto Tobias : Yes, that's what I thought.

• Gianni Arrosio : You know, this case is a real challenge. Fortunately, the odds are in our favor.

  Roberto Tobias : The odds?

  Gianni Arrosio : Exactly. You see before you a fully-fledged, highly-qualified private investigator with an extensive knowledge of modern science at his very fingertips. And, in spite of this, in three years of honest practice, I haven't solved a single case.

  Gianni Arrosio : Not even one.

  Roberto Tobias : [to the cashier]  What did he have?

  Cashier : A steak, three ham sandwiches, two hard-boiled eggs, and one bottle of beer.

  Roberto Tobias : [as he pays the cashier]  I guess he wasn't that hungry.
