Vernon Dent: Hassan Ben Sober

Quotes 

• Moe : [to Hassen Ben Soba and Ginna Rumma]  What'll you have?

  Hassan Ben Soba : We want...

  Moe : [cutting him off]  We don't have any more.

  Larry : All we got left are rabbit and hot dogs.

  Hassan Ben Soba : Rabbit.

  Ginna Rumma : Hot dogs.

  Larry : Hot dog, they'll take rabbit.

• Hassan Ben Soba : [to Shemp, getting up and pointing to his chair]  Sit down!

  Shemp : Oh, but I'm not tired, I'll just stand while you eat.

  Hassan Ben Soba : [pulls out his dagger]  Sit down with your hands on or off!

  Moe : Y-you talked us into it.

• Moe : Hey, spinach chin, do you mean to tell me that you're only a doorman?

  Hassan Ben Soba : [tearfully]  Yes!

  Shemp : Well, there's the door, man.

• Hassan Ben Soba : I am Hassan Ben Soba.

  Shemp : I had a few too many myself.

  [chuckles] 

  Moe : Quiet!

  [throws a handful of spaghetti in Shemp's face] 

• Shemp : [cleaning up Ginna Rumma, who has a bowl of spaghetti noodles over his face]  Hold this. Just a minute, I'll take it right off. I would leave it on; people don't know if you're coming or going with this on.

  Shemp : [trims the spaghetti away from Ginna Rumma's face]  There you are, sir. You look very pretty, and the spaghetti is as good as new.

  Ginna Rumma : Why, you...!

  [draws a dagger, preparing to attack Shemp] 

  Shemp : Whoa! Whoa, whoa...

  Hassan Ben Soba : Dog of dogs! How dare you!

  [draws out a dagger] 

  Larry : A thousand pardons! It was unavoidable!

  Moe : Wait a minute! Wait a minute! This would degrade you.

  Hassan Ben Soba : It's true; I am an aristocrat! I am Hassan ben Sobar!

  Shemp : I had a few too many myself!

  [laughs; Moe throws spaghetti at Shemp's face] 

  Moe : Quiet! We gotta clean up this mess!
