Memorable quotes
Ding-a-Ling: Somebody might not like having their shingles eaten off their house, Hokey. Hokey: Well we won't just eat shingles, Ding. The shutters are very tasty too and besides anyone who builds a gingerbread house is... Just asking to be eaten out of house and home. Ding-a-Ling: I guess your right, Hokey.

Ding-a-Ling: Hokey will smooth talk us out of this, watch! Hokey: What fire! What emotion! You couldn't play a scene like that unless you had training, now fess up, you're a famous actress aren't you? Tried of the tinsel and sham of Hollywood! A real person fed up with the world of make believe! Hokey: You've taken this little retreat to get away from all of it! Come on confess it, tell me that it's true, you've played so many you're all mixed up! Ima: I'm getting more mixed up by the minute!
