The word ''swordfish'', as a password, refers to a password used first in the 1932 Marx Brothers movie ''Horse Feathers''. The password has since been used in films, TV series, books and videogames. ==Original apparition== ''Swordfish'' first appeared as a password in the 1932 Marx Brothers movie ''Horse Feathers''—in a scene where Groucho Marx, as Professor Wagstaff, attempts to gain access to a speakeasy guarded by Baravelli (Chico). The original dialogue was:〔(Memorable quotes from ''Horse Feathers'' )〕 :''Baravelli'': ...you can't come in unless you give the password. :''Professor Wagstaff'': Well, what is the password? :''Baravelli'': Aw, no. You gotta tell me. Hey, I tell what I do. I give you three guesses. It's the name of a fish. :''Professor Wagstaff'': Is it "Mary?" :''Baravelli'': () 'At's-a no fish! :''Professor Wagstaff'': She isn't? Well, she drinks like one! ...Let me see... Is it "Sturgeon"? :''Baravelli'': Aw, you-a craze. A "sturgeon", he's a doctor cuts you open when-a you sick. Now I give you one more chance. :''Wagstaff'': I got it! "Haddock". :''Baravelli'': 'At's a-funny, I got a "haddock" too. :''Wagstaff'': What do you take for a "haddock"? :''Baravelli'': Sometimes I take an aspirin, sometimes I take a calomel. :''Wagstaff'': Y'know, I'd walk a mile for a calomel. :''Baravelli'': You mean chocolate calomel? I like-a that too, but you no guess it. (door. Wagstaff knocks again. Baravelli opens peephole again. ) Hey, what's-a matter, you no understand English? You can't come in here unless you say, "Swordfish." Now I'll give you one more guess. :''Professor Wagstaff'': ...swordfish, swordfish... I think I got it. Is it "swordfish"? :''Baravelli'': Hah. That's-a it. You guess it. :''Professor Wagstaff'': Pretty good, eh? Harpo Marx ("Pinky"), whose characters operated only in pantomime, gets into the speakeasy by pulling a sword and a fish out of his trench coat and showing them to the doorman. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Swordfish (password)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
