  • The whole fight scene in the bar near the begining of the film. From the cuckoo-clock smacking one man on his head, to Billy being rolled out on a beer barrel.
  • Lars and Lena Nordquist, during the picnic.
    Sam: This is my old friend Lena Nordquist.
    Angel: (speaks quitly, and very nervous) How do you do, Mrs Nordquist?
    Sam: Well, come on, come on! There's nothing to fear. She's half-human. (Lena gives Sam a dirty look)
    • The best part's near the end of the day, after everybody had filled themselves with a rather vast amount of beer.
      Announcer: Now, we make another toast to the finest boss, the loggers ever had! He's always treatin' the loggers like gentelmen! Lars Nordquist!
      Lars Nordquist: (everyone looks over to Lars, only to see that he's already passed out)
      Lena Nordquist: To the finest boss, uh... the loggers, uh... He will have to pass.
    • It gets better with Angel, when it's Sam's turn for congrats, and he falls unconscious.
      Angel: I'm afraid the Paul Bunyan of the pole climbers will have to pass.
  • When Sam goes to rescue George and another group of gold miners from some claim jumpers, he starts looking around for a way to outmaneuver the claim jumpers, then accidentaly falls into a cart and starts to roll down the hill, right at them.
    Sam McCord: OH, NO!
  • When George is carrying three fresh bottles of champagne to Jenny's cabin singing and acting goofy.
    Billy: Now see what you did?
    Sam: (sarcastically) Well what did I did?!
    Billy: You have poor Michelle so confused that she don't know what she's doing, and now George is over there with my girl!
    Sam: (disgusted) Ohhhhhh!!!
  • Also...
    Billy: Sam?
    Sam: Yes, Billy?
    Billy: How do you feel when you're jealous?
    Sam: Well, how should I know?!
    Billy: Well, I'm jealous!
    Sam: Oh, where's that whiskey?
  • George and Angel's scheme to get Sam jealous. Especially near the end when he finally starts to crack.
    Angel: George, I'm so nervous!
    George: It wont be long now. He's in his silent period. I saw him once like this before when somebody had stolen his favorite horse.
  • George gets Angel to laugh tickling her, and making Sam angry enough to come to the cabin. ...Which he does, and just as he charges at the door...it opens for him.
    George: I was only saving the door, Sam.
  • The whole fight scene at the end of the movie. After the brawl in the town's muddy streets is over and Frankie's lies are uncovered, he's handed over to the authorities, while covered in mud. When speaking to the judge, he asks for a match to light his (now ruined) cigar. The judge almost gives him one, until he realizes Frankie is trying to mess with him.
    • During the brawl, George nearly gets hit by a pair of head-butting goats. Fortunately, he manages to duck in time thanks to a warning from Sam.
