- Fagin: Now now, Mr Bucket. You can't just go pointing the finger. Last time you accused me of filching a diamond ring I'd come by through entirely honest means.
- Inspector Bucket: My wallet, if you please, and now! Else we can let the the Old Bailey decide the matter.
- Fagin: Dodger! Might you know anything of this gentleman's wallet, my dear?
- Dodger: What a coincidence! I come by it in the gutter not half hour ago.
- [Dodger hands the wallet back to Inspector Bucket]
- Fagin: Perhaps the boy deserves a finder's fee, do you not, Mr Bucket?
- Inspector Bucket: I'm quite sure he's had one.
- Ebeneezer Scrooge: Arrested any more innocents lately, Mr Bucket?
- [Scrooge passes him by without waiting for an answer]
- Inspector Bucket: I shall see justice done, Mr Scrooge, if I have to arrest every last man in London.
- Ebeneezer Scrooge: Humbug!
- Ebeneezer Scrooge: Look, you chose to clutter the world with your female issue. Your reckless fecundity is hardly my concern.
