Quote of the Day: Due South
I know I just did a Due South quote. I don't care. I'm re-watching the RayK years (i.e. season 3 & 4) and it's stuck in my head now.
From "Eclipse" (3.02):
[To get a good spot for a stake-out, Ray bribed a cemetery caretaker with a bottle of scotch. A few minutes later, the caretaker comes back with the bottle.]
caretaker: This thing doesn't work.
Ray: What do you mean it doesn't work? It's just a bottle, it doesn't work or not work.
caretaker: If nothing comes out of it, what is it?
Ray: Empty.
caretaker: But it isn't empty, so it must be broken.
Ray: If it was broken, it'd be empty.
caretaker: Exactly. So it's not working.
Ray: [takes out a pocketknife and smashes the top of the bottle off] There. Now it's broken and it's working.
caretaker: Good man.
