[Felix and Oscar have just been arrested and are having to face the sheriff for a third time, who is horrified about the circumstance] Felix Ungar:
So, do you even want to talk about it? Sheriff:
No. Felix Ungar:
Ever? Sheriff:
What's the point? It seems like no matter what I say, you two still end up in here. Oscar Madison:

Would it be possible to get the results of a race at Santa Anita? I got a trifecta going. Sheriff's Deputy:
A what? Oscar Madison:
A trifecta. It is where you pick the three winning horses in order from start to finish. Felix Ungar:
You are unbelievable. We have a wedding we cannot get to, and all he's got in his mind is A trifecta. Sheriff:
I'll tell you who won. Oscar Madison:
You know? Sheriff:
Yes! I won. Don't you see? You're my trifecta. The same two men have been arrested three different times and all three times by my men. Do you know what the odds are of that happening? Oscar Madison:
I would say roughly 12 million to one. Sheriff:
And what would it be if it were to happen in a little town called Santa Menandez, California? Oscar Madison:
It would be in the trillions. No bookie could handle it
