The Big Ripoff - S1-E8

Marilyn Polonski: Is there anything you won't do for money?
Jim Rockford: Well, there's two things. I won't kill for it and I won't marry for it. Other than that I'm open about anything. (00:34:30)

Tall Woman in Red Wagon - S1-E6

Jim Rockford: I hope you'll accept my sincerest apologies, agent Stoner. Don't you worry, my insurance company is gonna cover all this. Here, let me see that. Oh, just a scratch! You're gonna be fine!
Harry Stoner: You are right on the tender age of getting thrown on Leavenworth. You should do yourself a big favor and think about what you say to me before you say it. Cos I am a man with absolutely no sense of humor. Smart mouths turn me off, and I am beginning to suspect YOU have a smart mouth.
Jim Rockford: You're right, you're right, I do. But I am working on changing that.
Harry Stoner: Good. Now where's my gun?
Jim Rockford: Right over there. Here, let me get it for you. I know right where I threw it. (00:24:30)

Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1

Nick Butler: You're a cop, huh?
Jim Rockford: No, what I am, sonny, is about 50 pounds heavier and one hell of a lot meaner, so you better straighten up your act. I don't think I like you. (00:16:15)

The Countess - S1-E4

Snobbish woman: You know, Arnold thinks that we should spend the whole season in Europe, and I am beginning to think he's right. We did get to know quite a few titled people. LA is getting quite tacky...Did you met the Countess in Europe?
Jim Rockford: I met her at Marine Land.
Snobbish woman: Oh. Strange.
Jim Rockford: I run the hot dog concession next to the killer whale exhibit. The Countess loves my footlongs. I make 'em great. Lots of chili and hot mustard. Course I have a secret ya know: I pre-cook the hot dogs and wrap them in cellophane. That's the secret. Cellophane. Keeps 'em from getting tough.
Snobbish woman: Would you excuse me...[leaves disgusted] (00:09:00)

This Case Is Closed - S1-E7

Jim Rockford: Oh, I don't know what's goin' on, but believe me I don't want any trouble.

The Countess - S1-E4

Jim Rockford: We're all scared to death. I guess that's a penalty we pay for living in a world where all the price tags end in 99 cents and they sell mortuary plots on billboards next to the freeway. What you do is, just keep laughing. (00:48:30)

Continuity mistake: Jim at the end of the episode follows Rocky to his pick-up truck. While they are going there, he's checking out some girl in jeans shorts.

The Big Ripoff - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Rockfords drops the hitchhiker at her place, and they chat about going to dinner. In close-ups, Marilyn Polonski's left hand is next to her left shoulder on the car roof; every time it cuts to the slightly wider angle the left arm is placed across, so her left hand is in front of her right shoulder. (00:22:15)

The Big Ripoff - S1-E8

The Big Ripoff - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Rockford sits down teasing Moss about the beneficiary having to sue to collect. He holds a single sheet with both hands over the desk, but when he answers he has both hands on the opposite sides of the whole folder, flat on the desk. Similarly, later in the convo Rockford says he has a lead, Moss has his left hand on the chair, but is instantly flipping a page with that same hand in the reverse shot. (00:15:45)
