Frank Merriwell: “You can make all the threats you want! Because I know who you really are fella! You’re the infamous Dick Tracy villain, O-Face!”
O-Face: “My my Mr. Merriwell, don’t you have the eagle eye! You have any other body parts that can be compared to an animal’s? Let’s find out! First, let’s explore your nipples…”
O-Face’s Goon in Crotchless Leather Chaps: “Boss! Boss! We got problems! The cops have the place surrounded!”
Police Negotiator over Megaphone: “O-Face! We know you’re in there! Step away from the nubile young college buck and come out with your hands and your pants up!”
O-Face: “Never!”
