• Mr. Praline : It's not pinin'! It's passed on! This parrot is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet it's maker! This is a late parrot! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!

• Pet Shop Employee's Brother : What's that thing that spells the same backwards as forwards?

  Mr. Praline : A palindrome?

  Pet Shop Employee's Brother : Yeah, that's it.

  Mr. Praline : It's not a palindrome! The palindrome of "Bolton" would be "Notlob"!

• Pet Shop Employee : I've got a slug.

  Mr. Praline : Does it talk?

  Pet Shop Employee : Not really, no.

  Mr. Praline : Well, it's scarcely a replacement, then, is it?

• Mr. Praline : Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot, and I discovered that the only reason that it had been sitting on it's perch in the first place wat that it had been nailed there.

• Mr. Praline : I'm not prepared to pursue my line of enquiry any further, as I think this is getting too silly.

  The Colonel : Quite agree. Quite agree. Silly, silly, silly. Right, get on with it. Get on with it!
