Shawn: It’s just like our prom night.
Gus: Shawn.
Shawn: Gus, relax. Don’t be Nick Cage’s accent from “Con Air.” We’ve bathed together before.

Shawn: Know what else? I found an abandoned boat, at sea, at night. I have keen senses, my senses are very keen. You know what, I’m gonna lay out my history for you people and by the end of it, you’re all gonna be begging for my services, okay? Four months ago, a man walks into our offices, says “Help me, I’m a Lycan.” Gus is like “You’re made out of seaweed?” I said, “No, no, Gus, he’s a werewolf.”
[Time passes]
Shawn: We dressed up like civil war people and Gus looked like Denzel Washington in “Glory” and some guy built a tunnel…
[Time passes]
Shawn: Some chick got hit in the head with a tennis trophy – you know what, screw that case…
[Time passes]
Shawn: I looked at my partner, it was like looking at a child lost in a shopping mall. Luckily, I’d solved the case. The football players were protecting their bonuses and that is why they left the disembodied foot on the path in the forest.
Gus: That’s not why they did it.
Shawn: Yeah, well that one still confuses me. The point is, that is but twenty of my many, many cases that I have solved. You can read the book when I learn how to type.
[There is one man left in the audience]
Shawn: Sir, the fact that you haven’t left tells me you’re not afraid of my gift and are ready to use it to catch this shark. Think we have ourselves a boat.

Shawn: Are we gonna get to sing sea shanties, or any other kind of shanties? Do you have Dramamine, or should I just bring my own? Oh, Gus wants to know if you have cable on your boat ’cause it’s the season finale of “Leverage” and his TiVo is on the fritz.
William Tanner: You’re job is to shut up.
Shawn: Okay, that’s good, that’s easy. I was worried I would draw swabbing the decks which is a lot more difficult than remaining quiet.
Gus: You’re failing at your job right now.
Shawn: Says you.
Gus: Says the definition of shut up.

William Tanner: Guster, get the dynamite

Lassiter: Police detectives do not surmise that banks are knocked over by groups of angry cats with laser beams

Henry: See you later, alligator
