They never said it - 11/02/19 11:07 PM
There are fictional characters remembered for lines they never actually spoke.
Never in any of his short stories or novels did Sir Arthur Conan Doyle have Sherlock Holmes say "Elementary, my dear Waston". Not even once. Some movie or TV script writer may have put those words in Holmes mouth but his creator never did.
Joe Friday in Dragnet never actually said "Just the facts, mam". Not on radio, not on television. (I've been reiistening to Dragnet on youtube. )
Humprhey Bogart as Rick Blaine did not say "Play it again, Sam". And it wouldn't make sense for his Rick in Casablanca to say that since he had previous instructed Sam to never under any cirmcunstances play that song, because it was their song and she went off and married another man. Only after she showed up and asked Sam to play it did he say to Sam "Play it.".
Not once in the original Star Trek did James T, Kirk ever utter "Beam me up, Scotty". "Beam me up", "Scotty, beam me up" and mostly "Energize" but never "Beam me up, Scotty".
Darth Vader did not say "I am your father, Luke" or "Luke, I am your father". What he said after Luke accused him of murdering his father, was, "No! I am you father".
"Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a [blip]" is only slightly off the actual line from Gone With The Wind was "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a [blip]".
