Quotes 

• Sheriff Amos Tupper : But what am I gonna do about the fact that Irene Rutledge has no legal claim to Tommy?

  Jessica Fletcher : Amos, if I were you, I would develop amnesia.

  Sheriff Amos Tupper : Mmm, save a lot of paperwork, too.

• Sheriff Amos Tupper : Oh, I know that Simon Thane is somethin' of an institution around here. But just because there's a little snow on the roof, don't mean that there's no fire in the hearth, if you get my drift.

  Jessica Fletcher : Oh, I get your drift, Amos, I just think your, uh, anchor is slipping.
