Episode Quotes

Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Mama's right. I best stick to my writing. I can't do Al Smith any good making a nominating speech from a wheelchair.
Phineas Bogg: [gets some crutches] How about these?
Franklin Delano Roosevelt: I have never used them.
Phineas Bogg: Well you're gonna learn. So the delegates and the whole world can see you nominate Al Smith on your feet.

Mistakes/Goofs

Goof (crew or equipment visible): As the two cars pass each other in between the buildings on the studio lot, a crew member is clearly seen in the rear passenger window of the car.
Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): As the Voyagers drop into the court room, the extra playing a spectator flinches, but pretends not to see them.
