Basil Fawlty : [overseeing dinner service, he approaches a table where the Heaths are eating] Good evening. Everything to your satisfaction?
Mr. Heath : Oh...
Mrs. Hall : Well, uh...
Master Heath : [cutting in] I don't like the chips.
Basil Fawlty : Sorry.
Master Heath : The chips are awful.
Basil Fawlty : Oh, dear. What's, uh, what's wrong with them, then?
Master Heath : They're the wrong shape and they're just awful.
Mrs. Hall : I'm afraid he gets everything cooked the way he likes it at home.
Basil Fawlty : Ah, he does, does he?
Master Heath : Yes, I do, and it's better than this pig's garbage.
Mrs. Hall : Now, Ronald!
Master Heath : [to Basil] These eggs look like YOU laid them.
Mrs. Hall : Ronald!
Mr. Heath : [to Ronald] Now look-look-look here, old chap...
Mrs. Hall : [severely to Mr. Heath] Shut up! Leave him alone!
Mrs. Hall : [sweetly to Basil] He's very clever... rather highly strung.
Basil Fawlty : [forcing himself to smile] Yes... Yes, he should be.

Mrs. Hall : [screams of disgust] Aaargh! Oooh!
Colonel Hall : What is it, Pebbles? What's the matter?
Basil Fawlty : Is everything alright?
Mrs. Hall : Oh, I think I am going to be sick!
Basil Fawlty : It is an unusual taste, isn't it?
Mrs. Hall : It is not cooked, you ignoramus!
Colonel Hall : What are you trying to do to us, Fawlty? Do you mean that's raw?
Basil Fawlty : Oh, would you prefer a cooked one?
Colonel Hall : Of course she would prefer a cooked one!

Basil Fawlty : So, uh, this is your new menu.
Colonel Hall : [reading] Duck with orange; duck with cherries; duck surprise.
Mrs. Hall : What's duck surprise?
Basil Fawlty : Er... that's duck without orange or cherries.
Colonel Hall : I mean, is this all there is - duck?
Basil Fawlty : Umm... yes... done, of course, in three extremely different ways.
Colonel Hall : And what do you do if you don't like duck?
Basil Fawlty : Ah, well, if you don't like duck, uhhh, you're rather stuck.
