- Mike Frame: Jesse, you're my sister and I adore you; but, have you ever given five minutes thought to what's going on in the world?
- Emil Bruckner: You're all very hospitable. You see, I speak acceptable American. Although, grammar, I have not quite mastered.
- Emil Bruckner: It's a very strange thing I find here in America. You have women officials. They have no dignity.
- Emil Bruckner: You possess here a very extreme house.
- Pat Frame: [laughs] Boy, that's a hot one.
- Emil Bruckner: I have said something funny?
- Pat Frame: I'll say you have. "Very extreme house." That's not American.
- Emil Bruckner: Extreme? Large?
- Mike Frame: Wait a minute, Emil. Miss Richards is Jewish.
- Emil Bruckner: You are joking?
- Frieda - Frame's Maid: No.
- Emil Bruckner: That is - regrettable.
- Mike Frame: It's not regrettable! You better remember that.
- Pat Frame: What are you gonna do? Change your clothes.
- Emil Bruckner: Yes. So, I must ask that you leave.
- Pat Frame: Don't mind me. I'm progressive. I've seen boys change there clothes.
- Emil Bruckner: Remember, the Führer has said that it is the youth who will have responsibility for Germany's future. Today we rule all of Europe. Tomorrow, the world!
- Aunt Jessie Frame: We're at war, aren't we? He's the enemy. He's a Nazi, just as I knew he would be. If it was up to me, I'd exterminate the entire German race.
- Emil Bruckner: If it is necessary, I will die for the Führer!
- Mike Frame: Oh, I see. You want to die.
- Emil Bruckner: It is my duty. Are you - going to beat me?
- Mike Frame: Well, since you find death so pleasant, I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll kill you first and beat you afterwards.
- Leona Richards: If the Führer is so generous, why does he give you only one suit and one uniform?
- Emil Bruckner: That is common knowledge. It is the Treaty of Versailles!
- Emil Bruckner: I'm also prepared that you should torture me.
- Mike Frame: Now, listen to me. In America, we don't torture little boys, we reason with them. That's our secret weapon.
- Pat Frame: I don't get it.
- Emil Bruckner: You would not understand. You're a girl!
- Pat Frame: Of course, I'm a girl; but, I don't like the way you keep telling me I am. One more crack like that out of you, Emil brother, and I'll paste you one in the eye!
- Emil Bruckner: The position of women in this country is very strange.
- Pat Frame: We've got rights, that's all. My grandmother fought for 'em.
- Emil Bruckner: I am a German! I'm being persecuted because you're afraid of the German Reich. America is a cesspool! The only pure blooded American is the Sioux Indian!
- Mike Frame: What happened? Come on tell me.
- Leona Richards: Oh, Mike, it's too long and too ugly. The point is he made me lose my temper. That's a confession of failure.
- Mike Frame: He's just a child. You've handled problem children before.
- Leona Richards: Plenty of them and I could always get to the root of the problem: malnutrition, a drunken father, or a neurotic mother. But, Emil isn't the case of maladjustment. He's perfectly adjusted to a Nazi society. He's been taught contempt for people who don't use force and he'll go on pushing us around until we give him the one answer he understands: a licking!
- Mike Frame: Le, you're the last person in the world I ever thought...
- Leona Richards: I know, we don't beat children. It's outdated. But, I still say it's the only cure for Emil. Not in haste. Not in anger. A carefully planned licking.
- Mike Frame: So, we stop using our heads and get out the rubber hose.
- Leona Richards: I didn't say that. I said a deliberate, carefully planned licking. And if you won't do it, someone must.
- Leona Richards: Pat could be brave too. She could be a hero. She could sneak up behind you and hit you over the head. But, I don't think it would ever occur to her. Of course, she's not a member of the master race.
