- Tom Vale: Peggy will take Lew and the company for all she can get.
- Richard Diamond: Well, did you talk to Mr. Morse about this? Did you tell him how you feel about it?
- Joe Vale: Oh yes we did, but he doesn't believe us.
- Tom Vale: He just got sore. He said we should go hire a detective to prove it.
- Peggy Nolan: Look, Mr.?
- Richard Diamond: Diamond. Richard Diamond.
- Peggy Nolan: Mr. Diamond. Now I don't want you to think you've lost your touch...
- Richard Diamond: Well, I seem to have lost something.
- Peggy Nolan: Well, a couple of months ago this might have been the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
- Richard Diamond: But now...
- Peggy Nolan: I'm getting married.
- Richard Diamond: Well, he's a lucky man.
- Peggy Nolan: You're sweet.
