Quotes of Movie: "Fawlty Towers" [1975]
|
[Sybil suggests a way to get rid of Manuel's rat] Perhaps it would be simplest to have him put to S-L-E-E-P. Basil Fawlty: Who? Him or the rat? I could get a discount if we get them both done. Manuel: [suspiciously] Spleep? [two guests are speaking to Basil in German] Oh, German. I'm sorry, I thought there was something wrong with you. Polly, what's that smell? Polly: Flowers, I just got them from the garden. Basil Fawlty: Well, what are you stinking the place up with those for? What's happened to the plastic ones? Polly: Being ironed. You'll have to forgive him. He's from Barcelona. | |

Right, well I'll go and have a lie down then. No I won't; I'll go and hit some guests. The problem with you, Mr. Fawlty, is that you worry too much. You keep it up like this, you'll have a stroke before fifty. Stone dead you'll be. [to garden gnome] No Room 16 for you! Where are the pens? Sybil Fawlty: They're in that box. It says "pens" quite clearly. Basil Fawlty: Looks more like "Ben's." Sybil Fawlty: Well, then when Ben comes, you can give it to him. I'll ruin you. You'll never waitress in Torquay again. [indicating Sybil] This, Basil's wife. [indicating himself] Basil Fawlty: This, Basil. This, smack on head. [smacks Manuel on the head] Manuel will show you to your rooms - if you're lucky. It's alright, he's only choking. Basil Fawlty: I knew it. I knew this would happen if we hired a Frenchman. Polly: He's Greek, Mr. Fawlty. Basil Fawlty: Greek? Polly: Of course. Basil Fawlty: Well that's worse, I mean they invented it. [on the phone] I know... I know... I know... Oh, I know! Basil Fawlty: Then why is she telling you? Good night! [Mr. Leeman doesn't answer] Basil Fawlty: I said, "Good night!" Mr. Leeman: Oh, good night! Basil Fawlty: That didn't hurt, did it? [Referring to a dead body] He's dead! Basil Fawlty: Yes it's her husband. She hasn't got over it. Died thirty years ago. Come on out! Rause! Rause! Rause! Are you still here Basil? Basil Fawlty: No, I went a few minutes ago dear, but I expect I'll be back shortly. This is typical. Absolutely typical... of the kind of... [shouting] Basil Fawlty: ARSE I have to put up with from you people. You ponce in here expecting to be waited on hand and foot, while I'm trying to run a hotel here. Have you any idea of how much there is to do? Do you ever think of that? Of course not, you're all too busy sticking your noses into every corner, poking around for things to complain about, aren't you? Well let me tell you something - this is exactly how Nazi Germany started. A lot of layabouts with nothing better to do than to cause trouble. Well I've had fifteen years of pandering to the likes of you, and I've had enough. I've had it. Come on, pack your bags and get out. [to telephone operator] I've been trying to get through to the speaking clock... Well, it's engaged... Well, it's been engaged for ten minutes. How is this possible? My wife isn't talking to it. Well, of course it's a rat. You have rats in Spain, don't you - or did Franco have them all shot? I'll put an ad in the papers: "Wanted, kind home for enormous savage rodent. Answers to the name of Sybil." You're looking very happy Basil. Basil Fawlty: Happy? Ah yes, I remember that. You know what I'll do if I find out that money is yours? Basil Fawlty: [calling after her] You'd have to sew 'em back on first. Ah, Manuel? There is too much butter on those trays. Manuel: Que? Basil Fawlty: [speaking slowly] There is too much butter on those trays. Manuel: Ah, no senor. No "on those trays"... [counting the trays] Manuel: "uno, dos, tres". | |
