Marty: I'm telling you, Jeff, I was terrified.

Jeff: Look, Marty, ghosts are nothing to be scared of.
Marty: How do you know?
Jeff: Because I live with one!
Marty: That is different!
Jeff: Oh yeah? Do I go running around screaming every time you jump out of the woodwork? No. I talk to you like a normal, rational individual. So all you have to do is to go down there and have a nice quiet chat with whoever is doing the haunting!
Marty: Supposing it isn't a nice quiet ghost? For all I know, it can be some silly fool waving a sword about, straight out of Macbeth. And my head is not ending up on a plate for anybody.

Jeff: What do you think I put you on the case for? I asked you to take one look. One lousy, rotten look.
Marty: Right. You're forgetting one thing. If I can see him, he can see me. And whatever it was he was dragging around, it wasn't a good conduct medal.
