Quote from : High Plains Drifter Movie

Lutie Naylor: [the stranger has bought a round for the house] Let's see, one round for the house plus the smoke; that comes to about eight dollars and fifty cents.
Sheriff Dan Shaw: [chuckling] There's no charge Lutie; you were at the meeting, anything he wants.
Lutie Naylor: I didn't know that mean free whiskey!
Sheriff Dan Shaw: Everybody's got to put something in the kitty.
The Stranger: [Reaches over a takes off Shaw's badge and pins it on Mordecai] 'Bout time this town had a new sheriff.
Mordacai: I'm the new sheriff!
[looks around the saloon]
Mordacai: I'm the new sheriff!
Mayor Jason Hobart: [laughing] I'm sorry, Dan; but you should have seen the look on your face when he took off your badge and pinned it on the runt.
Mordacai: I'm not a runt anymore; I'm the new sheriff!
The Stranger: [reaches over and takes off the mayor's hat and puts it on Mordecai] And the mayor. Any objections?
Mayor Jason Hobart: Uh, no.
