- Captain Dan Nichols: [Augie has been approved for R and R] Right now, your wife is lolling on the sands of Waikiki, just a-pining for her Augie.
- Captain Dan Nichols: [Augie is going on leave] Go Sergeant, Go!
- Augie Syzmanski: I'm going... I'm going!
- [Augie takes off in the jeep]
- Doc Bergman: [Doc wants to remove Mrs. Syzmanski's body] Can we take her now?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah, Doc... But as soon as you can, tell me something... Will you?
- Doc Bergman: I can tell you something right now, about the murder weapon... A bayonet.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: How do you figure?
- Doc Bergman: Four years in the Medical Corps, that's how I figure... You see quite a few of these punctures in a field hospital.
- Doc Bergman: Steve, your guy's cool under fire... Look at that
- [a towel in the bathroom has blood on it]
- Doc Bergman: He took the time to wipe the blade.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Thanks, Doc... I noticed.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Che is going over the door lock] Che, what have you got?
- Che Fong: Crude job... Tried to jimmy the lock, but didn't know how.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: What do you think?... Random kill, psycho, What?
- Che Fong: Random, maybe... But he knew enough to wear gloves.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve has just told Augie that his wife was murdered] How was the marriage going?
- Augie Syzmanski: Strong... Strong, beautiful and forever.
- Doc Bergman: [Doc his giving his autopsy report on Mrs. Syzmanski to Steve] Stabbed her once, just below the sternum, using an upward thrust, penetrating the right ventricle, right atrium and aorta... The main chambers of the heart,.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Quick and sure, huh?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve is discussing Mrs. Syzmanski's murder] It's as if she was struck by lightning... No rhyme or reason... If the guy was a psycho, where's his ego?... His mark?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Colonel Hart has arrived] Victim was Ella Syzmanski... She was waiting for her husband to arrive on rest-and-recouperation leave from Vietnam.
- Colonel Ken Hart: How long had she been waiting?
- Betty Hurlburt: Four days... Four long days.
- Leslee Nichols: [Enjoying the breathtaking view from the cliff] Lovely... Just lovely.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: Old mother nature sure knew what she was doing, didn't she?
- Leslee Nichols: She certainly did.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: [after he stabs Mrs. Nichols, and throws her over the cliff] Aloha, Mrs. Nichols.
- Colonel Ken Hart: [Looking over Mrs. NIchols' body] Why stab her.?... It would have been easier to make it look like suicide here.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: This way, he leaves us his message... Premeditated murder.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve is getting really frustrated with the case] We're getting everything but leads.
- Sgt. Filippo: [the Marine recruiter discovers Wheeler's real identity] Look Wheeler or Ralston or whatever your name is... I don't know what the Army medics found wrong with you, but the Marine Corps doesn't need used meat with a phony name.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: [Ralson is mad because the Marines won't take him] Boy, you really think you're huckleberry over persimmon... Don't you?
- Sgt. Filippo: [Opening the door] Try the Foreign Legion... They don't ask questions.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: [Showing the Marine recruiter his medal] DSC, mine!... I wasted 11 VC and a mortar team to get that!... How many did you get, latrine sergeant?
- Thomas Robert Ralston: [Ralston exits the Marine recruiting office, and as a crowd assembles, he shows off his medal] You fools know that that is?... That's a Distinguished Service Cross!... A genuine hero medal, for meritoriously wasting a bunch of Charlies... Eleven!
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Lt. Nichols] The killer knew that your name on that cable would bring Mrs. Carter here... Now, what is it that ties you and you and Lieutenant Carter together?
- Augie Syzmanski: We were in the same outfit.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: No, something more than that... and we've got two hours and 40 minutes to find out what it is.
- Colonel Ken Hart: [Colonel Hart is looking at Ralston's record] Steve, Ralston was discharged on a Section Eight.
- Colonel Ken Hart: [Reading Ralston's personnel file] Paranoid, aggressive-defensive, tendencies to violence... There's a bunch of reading here.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [to Lt. Nichols] I'd say you were more interested in keeping your sharp outfit looking sharp... The guy needed a head doctor, and you give him a transfer... And you pass that off as an error in judgement?
- Captain Dan Nichols: [Slams his fist on the table] That's what is was, McGarrett, and I've paid for it!... All right, maybe he did start flipping out; when you and Victor Charlie are out in the boonies every night trying to kill each other, we all get pretty weird!
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Mrs. Carter;s plane lands, and she finds out from McGarrett that her husband was killed in action] What can I say, Mrs. Carter?... My deepest sympathy and my apology for being so brusque, but your own life is in danger right now.
- Danny Williams: [Ralston called Mrs. Carter and hung up] Steve, why do you suppose he called, and didn't show up?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: Yeah, that's just what's on my mind, and I don't like it.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve and his men are escorting Cathy, posing as Mrs. Carter to the R and R center] Kono, when you get to De Russy, you make two rights to the R and R center.
- Kono: Right... I know the place.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: I want you at the door of that cab when Cathy gets out... And remember, Chin is going to the south door.
- Kono: I remember exactly... I've got a photogenic memory.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: That's photographic, Kono.
- Kono: That's what I said.
- [This triggers something Mrs. Carter said to Steve, and he turns his car around, and goes back to the airport]
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Steve enters the plane, and Ralston has a gun on Mrs. Carter] Is that the way you won the DSC?... By killing women?
- Thomas Robert Ralston: That sounds like the lint-free round-mouthed voice of justice... Where's that little handgun you dudes carry?
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Opening his jacket] I don't need one.
- Det. Steve McGarrett: [Ralston is holdting a gun on Mrs. Carter] Lieutenant Carter is dead.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: That's what I call an outright Sunday lie.
- Leslee Nichols: [Ralston take Mrs. Nichols to see the view from the cliff] Oh, look at that.
- Thomas Robert Ralston: If you don't have 20/20 vision, this will sure give it to you.
