Dialogue
edit- Mrs. Dorothy Fremont: Good day, are you Mr. Ramses? I'm Dorothy Fremont. Well, I heard about you from a friend of mine, Annette Dupree. I'm giving a dinner party in two weeks for my daughter, and Mrs. Dupree says that you cater to just about the type of thing I'm looking for. I want something unusual, something totally different.
- Fuad Ramses: Yes, Mrs. Fremont. I do cater to unusual affairs. What do you consider to be unusual?
- Mrs. Dorothy Fremont: Oh, I don't know. What do you recommend?
- Fuad Ramses: Have you ever had... an Egyptian Feast?
- Mrs. Dorothy Fremont: My, that would be fun. That would be perfect.
- Suzette Fremont: Do you think we should park here? Do you think it's safe?
- Det. Pete Thornton: On second thought, you might be safer with the killer than you are with me.
- Police Captain: Ramses was the killer we've been looking for. Mrs. Fremont, I'm afraid this feast is evidence of murder!
- Mrs. Dorothy Fremont: Oh dear! The guests will have to eat hamburgers for dinner tonight.
