This is sarcasm. Its a direct quote from the movie Casablanca (one of the all time classics).

When ordered to shut down a bar, the police captain uses the excuse that illegal gambling is taking place in the bar. But the Captain is a frequent patron of the illicit gambling.

The exact quote is roughly

"Shocked, I say. Shocked to find that gambling has been going on in this location."

"Your winnings sir."

"Thank you."




Ow, you got me. I am ashamed to admit I missed most american classic movies. Thank you for the reference, its on my list now.


"The exact quote is roughly"

Um..?
