Desmond: "It looks like the killer used a forty-five. You got a forty-five, Joe?"

Joe: "Every joe has a forty-five."

Desmond: "I'm only interested in the joe who's dodging the question."

Joe: "You know I have a service piece from the war."

Desmond: "I'd like to see it."

Joe: "Sure, Mike. Here it is."
