ENSEMBLE:
Is de one dey call 'SAMMY'!
From: Charles Ulrich <culrich@istar.ca>
  Perhaps this is a reference to Sammy Davis, Jr. (1925-1990), African-American entertainer.
From: "Dennis Guertin" <dguertin@guertin.com>
  I think I remember a cologne or eau de toilette named "Same" (acute accent on the e) pronounced the same way as "Sammy"

One-Adam-Twelve... see de mammy...
  I believe Adam-12 is a popular TV cops serial. And One-Adam-Twelve itself is a radio call "One-Adam-Twelve, One-Adam-Twelve, a four-fifteen fight, with chains and knives.... One-Adam-Twelve, handle code three."

Take good care o' dat "ASH"!
From: Patrick Neve <splat@darkwing.uoregon.edu>
  See N&C on "Nivea Lotion" and "Royal Crown" from the song and album "YOU ARE WHAT YOU IS".
From: fhbanta@mindspring.com (Fred H. Banta)
  Black folks in the USA are particularily fond of lotion. The reason is that when their skin becomes dry and exfoliates, it gives an ashen appearance. So in order to avoid this "syndrome" they use lotion and lots of it. Ask any African-American.

BOOG-BOOGMMM, Dano... "MAMMY ONE"!
From: Charles Ulrich <culrich@istar.ca>
  "Book 'em, Danno" is a catch-phrase from Hawaii Five-O (CBS, 1968-1980), not The Untouchables. And both Hawaii Five-O and The Untouchables were primarily TV shows, not movies. (It's true that The Untouchables was made into a feature film in 1987. But note that FZ cited several of the actors in the original TV series in the liner notes of Freak Out!)
From: "Dennis Guertin" <dguertin@guertin.com>
  Would be "Book 'em, Dano...Murder One!" (first degree murder charges)
