Fletch (1985)

Bill Henderson: Speaker

Quotes 

• [Being chased by the local cops, Fletch has barged into the middle of a club meeting in a ballroom] 

  Speaker : And now... the Father of Internal Bushings... our very own and beloved leader... A man who needs no introduction!

  Fletch : Thank you very much, Sammy! I couldn't wait. That was a very nice introduction, and I am... very thrilled and proud to be here. It's been a wonderful ceremony here on behalf of our own Fred... "The Dorf" Dorfman! Fred was darn near death recently. He wasn't ashamed to admit to me that he had syphilis. Thank God he stopped it in its tracks. It takes a lot for a man... to admit where he got it from and how he got it. Look at him today. Fred, you look just wonderful. The nose looks normal again. The face has come back into shape. It's not drooling anymore. And hats off to Marge, his wife, because that whole experience... the three weeks that she stayed at Trembling Hills has paid off. No more alcohol or sedatives in her life. There are many other things I wanna tell you about Fred... things that maybe many of you already know.

  [By this time, Fletch has made it up to the dais at the front of the room] 

  Fletch : [taking microphone]  You're not going to sing for us, are you, Sammy?

  [crowd laughs]
