Jerry Kilbourne : Go to the garage and have the bumper fixed. And, uh, pick up father at the station. He arrives at five.
Wade Rawlins : What's your father like?
Jerry Kilbourne : Well, let's see. He's um... well, he's very bad-tempered and he hates tramps. For further information, I'd ask mother. She's known him longer.
Wade Rawlins : Yes, yes, but, uh... well, is he tall, short, wide, narrow?
Jerry Kilbourne : Well, that depends on how you look at him.
Wade Rawlins : Miss Kilbourne, how will I know him?
Jerry Kilbourne : I've already told you. He arrives at five.
Wade Rawlins : Oh... at five. Yes, of course, that's different.

Herbert Wheeler : Oh, I'm sorry, sweetheart. Listen baby...
Grosvenor - Butler : I beg your pardon, sir. But I'm neither your sweetheart nor your baby.
[Jerry takes the phone from Grosvenor]
Herbert Wheeler : Baby! You baby elephant. Will you get off the phone ya big lug?
Jerry Kilbourne : Why, Herbert, I thought you wanted to talk to me. But if that's the way you feel about it.
[She hands the phone back to Grosvenor]
Herbert Wheeler : Uh, wait a minute, Jerry.
Jerry Kilbourne : [Speaking loudly toward the phone that Grosvenor is holding] Tell Mr. Wheeler I'm not at home.

Grosvenor - Butler : Miss Kilbourne is not at home, sir.

Jerry Kilbourne : If you ask me, and I'm sure you won't, I think Rawlins has great possibilities.
Mr. Kilbourne : He's nothing but a presumptuous pup, don't you think so, Grosvenor?
Grosvenor - Butler : I would rather not discuss that person, sir, but since you asked me, I think he's suffering from dementia...
Jerry Kilbourne : He means he thinks he's nuts.
