RENAULT: You may find the climate of Casablanca a trifle warm, Major.
STRASSER: Oh, we Germans must get used to all climates, from Russia to the Sahara. But perhaps you were not referring to the weather.
RENAULT: What else, my dear Major?
STRASSER: By the way, the murder of the couriers, what has been done?
RENAULT: Realizing the importance of the case, my men are rounding up twice the usual number of suspects.
HEINZE: We already know who the murderer is.
STRASSER: Good. Is he in custody?
RENAULT: Oh, there is no hurry. Tonight he’ll be at Rick’s. Everybody comes to Rick’s.
STRASSER: I have already heard about this cafe, and also about Mr. Rick himself.

RICK: What, again?
RENAULT: This is no ordinary arrest. A murderer, no less. If you are thinking of warning him, don’t put yourself out. He cannot possibly escape.
RICK: I stick my neck out for nobody.

RICK: Louis, you’ve got something on your mind. Why don’t you spill it?
RENAULT: How observant you are. As a matter of fact, I wanted to give you a word of advice.
RICK: Yeah? Have a brandy?
RENAULT: Thank you. Rick, there are many exit visas sold in this cafe, but we know that you have never sold one. That is the reason we permit you to remain open.
RICK: I thought it was because we let you win at roulette.
RENAULT: That is another reason. There is a man who’s arrived in Casablanca on his way to America. He will offer a fortune to anyone who will furnish him with an exit visa.
RICK: Yeah? What’s his name?
RENAULT: Victor Laszlo.
RICK: Victor Laszlo?
RENAULT: Rick, that is the first time I have ever seen you so impressed.
