Quote of the Day: Due South
From "Gift of the Wheelman" (1.10):
"The last half hour I've gotten calls from seven department stores, the Salvation Army, two parade officials, and the director of a children's pageant. This was further augmented by calls from four city councilmen, the Deputy Mayor, and the Police Commissioner. All curious as to why we are detaining all the Santa Clauses in the city on Christmas Eve. The Police Commissioner was especially irked since his daughter was sitting on Santa's knee in a department store when said Santa was cuffed and thrown into a paddy wagon. In our zeal to solve this case, I can't help but wonder if we haven't been, I don't know, how do you say it ... excessively stupid?"
