Katherine : Sis, aren't you going to work? Sis!
Anne Murdock : No.
Katherine : Fired? I thought you would be. You know, you can't, with people the way you do. Who made a play for you?
Anne Murdock : Nobody.
Katherine : No, don't tell me that, Anne. Honest, you ought to get wise to yourself. Take me, for instance. I gained six pounds, maybe more, but still I'm the pet model of the elite dress shop. And you know why? Because, I let that frog of a manager kiss me on the ear, every now and then.
Anne Murdock : I got my raise on brains, not good looks. Mr. McGowan said so.
Katherine : Yeah, and how much is your raise? A dollar a week?
Anne Murdock : If you come home nights, before I'm asleep, you might learn something. I'm the President's private secretary and I've got a weeks vacation. And, I'm to handle the office until he gets back from Europe. My salary's 45 a week and how do you like that?

Katherine : Expect to console yourself with that washout?
Anne Murdock : If I'd stuck to my own kind, in the first place, I wouldn't have gotten hurt.
Katherine : Ted wants a parking space for a couple of babies and a free laundry. If you want to learn what the word lonesome is, take him on.
