Quotes 

• [Fleeing the fire, the Night Court staff enters a building filled with bodies on tables] 

  Harry Stone : This is... the morgue.

  Chief Coroner Morton : [looks over and notices them]  Sorry, no walk-ins.

• Harry Stone : Miss Sullivan, in this case I happen to think Dan is more qualified.

  Christine Sullivan : Why, because he has a pair of...

  [notices Roz staring at her] 

  Christine Sullivan : ...pants?

  Roz Russell : Chicken!

• Harry Stone : I don't even remember what we were fighting about.

  Public Defender Christine Sullivan : Yeah, me neither.

  Bull Shannon : Uh, Harry, you called her a flighty air-head, and Christine, you said he was a sexist pig flake.

  Harry Stone : Thank you so much, Bull.

• Art Fensterman : It's probably not that important, sir, but remember the fourth floor?

  Harry Stone : yeah...

  Art Fensterman : It's not there anymore

• [after the State Assembly race is announced to be a tie by a single, last-minute vote, the voter's body is brought into the morgue] 

  Harry Stone : What was it, a heart attack?

  Attendant Cal : Suicide.

  [he hands Harry a folded note and raises his eyebrows at him] 

  Harry Stone : [reading]  "I can't stand living in this crummy city another day. So as a final gesture of my contempt for New York, I'm voting to put that scummy worm Dan Fielding into office. Fielding and New York deserve each other. Goodbye, and good riddance."

  Phil Sanders : [sniffles]  What a tribute!

• Harry Stone : Well, we should be pretty safe until the fire team can rescue us. In the meantime, everybody try to stay calm.

  [Christine immediately lets out a piercing scream as a shrouded corpse rises slowly from the table - then flips down the sheet] 

  Attendant Cal : That always gets 'em.
