- Kay Kyser: [Looking about the room cluttered with many exotic bric-a-brac] Who decorated this room - Robert Ripley?
- Prince Saliano: Presently I shall assume a state of trance, in which the outer mind merges with the astral portion of the human ego... the Spirit of Evil is trying to enter this room, but have no fear, the fires of death will guard us.
- Kay Kyser: [to a contestant] Now, wh-what;s the difference between a weasel, an easel, and a measle? What's a measle? Go ahead and break out with it.
- Chuck Deems: Oh!
- Kay Kyser: What's the matter?
