If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Monday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Monday's quote:
Ep #208 (1967) - Jason - 'Willie, if you MUST steal something, steal something that won't be missed.'
From "#0208/0209: Abbreviated Robservations 10/17/01: Collins Family Jewels"
The title of the Robservations says it all. So, what goes on in the lead-up to the quote is that as Willie is sitting at the kitchem table putting sugar in his coffee Jason enters the room. Willie says, "Well, that was quick. Where is it?" (Referring to the $500 they'd previously agreed Jason would ask Liz for him.) But Jason's response is, "I was about to ask you the same question." A confused Willie says he's talking about the money. "And I'm talking about Mrs. Stoddard's pin." Willie feigns ignorance, which angers Jason into warning, "Now, you made one beautiful blunder last night by getting into that fight -- but the one you made just now tops them all!" Willie says he doesn't know what Jason is talking about and neither does Jason. Jason orders Willie to stand up, but Willie says he doesn't feel like standing up. "I said, 'Stand up!'" "What for? It's not time to go yet. And besides, where's the five?!" Jason grabs Willie's shirt and demands to know what's in the pocket. "What for?" "Give it to me!" "It's just a set of old keys." "Oh. Well you won't object to handing it over." Willie says, "Maybe I don't feel like it," as he stands up. Jason warns, "Willie, I'll count five -- and then I'll tell Mrs. Stoddard I found that pin -- and when the police and the insurance investigators arrive, they'll know exactly where to look for it. One..." "You won't turn me in." "Two..." "Because when they get me, they get you too." "There would be no need to get either of us if you hadn't been so stupid!" And Jason pushes a chair aside as he lunges right behind Willie. "Three!" "I don't have it, I've told ya!" "Four! I'm not fooling, Willie! I mean it!" And after a few seconds Willie finally acquiesces and takes the pin from his pocket. Jason grabs it from his hand. "I only wanted it because it was so pretty. (Commercial break) Jason counters with, "You wanted it because it's worth a fortune." And Jason turns and moves away as he asks, "How do I get it through your head that there is a right way and a wrong way to get money?" Then waving the pin he adds, "The wrong way is to steal something that will be missed and reported within the next five minutes." "I expected to be gone before she missed it," is Willie excuse. "Even if you were, the insurance investigators id track you down!" And after that is when Jason delivers the quote...

He finds Willie in the kitchen adding four spoons of sugar into his coffee and demands back the pin. The scene between them grew tense and very interesting as Jason counted to five and Willie finally gave it up[/spoiler]
