Quotes 

• Samantha Crawford : You, sir, are no gentleman.

  Bart Maverick : Why, you're finding out about me already.

• [Bart has caught Samantha in his hotel room searching the pockets of his jacket] 

  Bart Maverick : I'll just lock the evidence in, bring the Sheriff up and, uh, your husband, he can bail you out. How's that?

  Samantha Crawford : Oh, uh, um, um. I-I did tell just one tiny fib.

  Bart Maverick : Noooo.

  Samantha Crawford : I'm-I'm not married.

  Bart Maverick : Oh?

  Samantha Crawford : Does that make a difference.

  Bart Maverick : Yes. That means your husband can't bail you out.

• Bart Maverick : Leave it, Samantha. If they catch us robbing their death lodge, it won't be any picnic.

  Samantha Crawford : What would they do?

  Bart Maverick : Oh, stake us out in the sun, where the ants could eat us.

  Samantha Crawford : Sounds a little bit like a picnic at that.

• [Samantha has been speaking in a very pronounced - and fake - southern accent] 

  Bart Maverick : By the way, that's a two-story drop out the window. You could crush quite a few magnolia petals if you try it.

• Bart Maverick : There it is.

  Samantha Crawford : Well, it isn't Delmonico's. What is it?

  Bart Maverick : It's a Sioux death lodge, a new one. That red blanket covers a dead warrior.

  Samantha Crawford : Please, do you mind if we skip the picturesque customs of the natives? Subject under discussion was food.

• Samantha Crawford : What about you? How did you learn about Indians?

  Bart Maverick : Oh, I had to. My brother and I were galvanized Yankees. We volunteered to be Indian fighters to get out of the Yankee prison. In two years, if you didn't learn about Indians, you were dead.

• Samantha Crawford : Lately, I find myself wanting things I never really wanted before.

  Bart Maverick : Like a rose-covered cottage, patter of tiny feet?

  Samantha Crawford : Seems pretty foolish, doesn't it?

  Bart Maverick : I don't know. It might be cheaper for the Mavericks if they had you in the family.

• [during the night, Samantha has stolen the counterfeit plates from Bart and fled] 

  Bart Maverick : Brother Bret... shake hands with Brother Bart.

• Gunnerson : You think she's still got the plates?

  Bart Maverick : I don't know. But if I was a gambling man, and I am, I'd call her bluff.

• Samantha Crawford : I'm so tired of getting wet.

  Bart Maverick : I'm so tired of chasing after those plates, Sam.

• Bart Maverick : Oh, uh... I understand you're moving up to 306, Mr Gunnerson. Something wrong with this one?

  Gunnerson : Hot night. There's more air on the third floor.
