6 quotesInspector Gadget Faces Dismissal from Chief Quimby
Inspector Gadget
Fired? You can't fire me. I quit! (Quimby scoffs) Wait a second, I don't want to quit. Besides, Chief, it's not my fault. (Gadget pulls out a chip that Claw's men left on his back to prove to Chief Quimby that he has actually found evidence) Look what Baxter found on me: a circuit override chip.
Chief Quimby
(Furious as he refuses to listen and doesn't care, since Gadget is fired) I don't care! Claw stole the laser, and you tarred and feathered the mayor in toothpaste, and caused $100,000 in damages! (sternly) Turn in your badge, Gadget.
Inspector Gadget
(shocked) Oh, but Chief, all I ever wanted to be my entire life, was a crime fighter.
Chief Quimby
(still stern) Your badge. (Gadget pulls out his badge from his coat pocket, and slides it in front of Chief Quimby) Well, that would be all... Mr. Gadget.

Misunderstandings in a Stakeout Situation
Chief Quimby
(Furious) GADGET! I told you specifically not to go to the stakeout!
Inspector Gadget
That's not entirely accurate, chief. You told me not to get within 100 yards of the stakeout and I posted myself exactly 101 yards away.
G2
Then how did you manage to get tangle up with me inside the warehouse?
Inspector Gadget
Well, you gave me backup at the bar, I thought I'd give you backup at the warehouse.
G2
I never need backup.
Inspector Gadget
Chief, you have to put me back on the case. The Department needs me!

I'm all messed up!

I'm sorry, Gadget, but I don't see what the problem is.

Watch. Go Go Gadget Toothbrush. (Gadget Bubble gum shoots Baxter) See? Bubble gum.
Baxter
I see what the problem is.
Inspector Gadget
Isn't there something you can do for me, Baxter?
Baxter
You're the prototype Gadget, Gadget, misbound to have a few glitches but I'm happy to know we've been working. I'll let in a little secret. Soon, we'll be unveiling something... (top secret door closes) Soon, that'll solve all this glitches for good. Soon.
Inspector Gadget
Wowsers. Thanks, Baxter. Well, better go check in with the chief.
Baxter
I wouldn't bother the chief right now. I heard some idiot arrested his mother this afternoon.
Chief Quimby
Where is he?! Gadget!
Baxter
Ooh. Oh.

You put my mother in jail for drag racing?

Chief Quimby
This is what you also said last week when you arrested that troop of girl rangers for selling cookies! (mugshot of ranger girls in jail, taking pictures)
Inspector Gadget
Those "cookies" were three days past expiration date!
Chief Quimby
You are this close to being put on probation, Gadget. Now, let's get my mother out. Heaven knows what's happening to her down there with all those lowlifes.

You'll never get away with this, Claw!
Dr. Claw
We'll see.
Chief Quimby
G2, see!
[still laughing]
G2
Very funny, Claw, but you forget. I am unaffected by laughing gas. Now...(prepares her net guns) stop this felonious and unlawful act, or I shall have to use force.
Dr. Claw
Ah, the lady gadget. I've so looked forward to meeting you. I hope you don't fall victim to my... magnetic charm.
