Quotes 

  • [Mayor Hanniger and Chief Newby are driving back to City Hall in Newby's police Suburban. The Chief gestures to the heart-shaped candy box that arrived at the police building earlier, addressed to the Mayor] 

    Chief Jake Newby : Aren't you going to open that?

    Mayor Hanniger : Yeah.

    Chief Jake Newby : Better read the card first.

    [Mayor Hanniger opens the card on the front of the box] 

    Mayor Hanniger : [reading from the card]  From the heart comes a warning, filled with bloody good cheer, remember what happened as the 14th draws near!

    [Hanniger opens the box to find a blood-soaked heart inside. The chief looks over and is horrified by what he sees] 

    Mayor Hanniger : It can't be happening again! It can't be happening again!

  • Chief Jake Newby : [reading a note he found in a body]  "It happened once, it happened twice. Cancel the dance, or it'll happen thrice."

  • Chief Jake Newby : Mabel! Mabel, it's me! I gotta talk to you, we've got a problem concerning the dance! Mabel! Mabel, you back in here?

    [Newby inhales and frowns, smelling something rancid in the air] 

  • Chief Jake Newby : [reading a note found outside the police station]  "You didn't stop the party." Stop the party? What party?

  • Mrs. Raleigh : Well, I'm afraid I have no records of a Harry Warden, past or present.

    Chief Jake Newby : How can that be? He was committed there, under court order!

    Mrs. Raleigh : I'm sorry. I have no records on him. In 20 years, any number of things could have happened. Now, if this Harry Warden was committed as you say, then he's simply no longer here. And if I have no records on him, I have to assume that he's transferred, he's released, or he's on the slab. One of three, take your pick.

    Chief Jake Newby : One out of three? Now, look, Mrs. Raleigh, you're gonna have to do better than that. Now, I have to know what happened to this man, and I have to know what happened to him now! Now, have you checked everything?

    Mrs. Raleigh : Everything except the microfilms over in central file, and it will take several days to check that.

    Chief Jake Newby : I need answers fast. I'll be waiting on your call.

  • Jessie 'T.J.' Hanniger : It isn't Harry Warden.

    Chief Jake Newby : Yeah T.J., I know. We got a call from Eastfield late this evening. They said that Harry Warden died five years ago.

    Mayor Hanniger : But then who is it?

    Jessie 'T.J.' Hanniger : [voice choking up]  It's Axel.

    Chief Jake Newby : Alright.

    Mayor Hanniger : My god. It was on Valentine's Day that Harry Warden killed Axel's father!

    Chief Jake Newby : Come on, let's get in there, eh?

    Mayor Hanniger : Ho, yeah!

  • Chief Jake Newby : Anything happen?

    Ben : No. It's been quiet all evening.

    Chief Jake Newby : Good.

    Ben : [indicating the heart-shaped box on Newby's desk]  That came for you, though.

    Chief Jake Newby : [looking at the heart-shaped box]  Oh my God. Get me a coffee, will you, Ben?

    Ben : Yeah, sure, Chief.

    [walks away] 

    Chief Jake Newby : My God.

    [Chief Newby nervously lifts the lid of the box, then sighs in relief when he sees that it just contains some chocolates. He opens the card, only to find a handwritten message that says, "Jake, be my valentine! Love Mabel!"] 

    Chief Jake Newby : [with tears in his eyes]  Oh, Mabel.

  • Gretchen : [Newby is hanging a notice up on the door to the union hall]  Eh, what's going on?

    Chief Jake Newby : The mayor's cancelled the dance, and that's all there is to it. Well, in the light of Mabel's death, we had no choice. There'll be no parties either. We owe her that much respect.

    Sylvia : Mabel would've wanted us to have the dance. I mean, she worked so hard on it!

    Tommy Whitcomb : Yeah, you can't cancel it now!

    Dave : He's just looking for an excuse to cancel the dance.

    Chief Jake Newby : That's the way it is! There'll be no dance tomorrow night, and no parties either. Do you understand me?

  • Chief Jake Newby : [the Chief is getting into his car when Tommy's car comes up behind him, swerving wildly. It stops and Tommy gets out] 

    [yelling] 

    Chief Jake Newby : Goddammit, Tommy Whitcomb what the hell's the matter with you? Where's your brains? I...

    Tommy Whitcomb : Chief, listen to me. You have to go to the mine! We were having a party and Harry Warden started killing everybody!

  • [Newby walks over to where Dave and Tommy are both jokingly dancing with a paper cut-out of a cupid] 

    Chief Jake Newby : You'd better put that thing back where you found it or I'll turn you both upside-down, especially you.

    Dave : This is my date, Chief!
