Helen Melohn : [to Emily] A friend of yours?
Emily Sears : No!
Helen Melohn : Why don't I fit in here?
Harry Patterson : In this graveyard? Why, you're a lark. There's a song in your eyes and they're lit with livin'.
Helen Melohn : Mister!
Harry Patterson : Everybody dyin' on the vine and - wham-bo - in comes the grapes!

Harry Patterson : Did you girls ever take a bath?
Helen Melohn : Huh?
Harry Patterson : I mean, did you ever notice how the water runs out of the bathtub? How the water goes down the drain?
Helen Melohn : No, I never did. I get right out of the bathtub. I don't like feeling wet.
Harry Patterson : I thought maybe you might have sat there thinkin' once!
Helen Melohn : Oh, no. I can't dry myself fast enough. But, Emily sits there. Till the water's all gone.
Harry Patterson : Oh!
[gives Emily the once over]
Harry Patterson : Is that so?

Helen Melohn : Oh! Who's gonna take a bath?

Harry Patterson : Let me have a look at the back of your neck.
Helen Melohn : Is this a booby trap or something?

Helen Melohn : Oh, Harry!
[kiss]
Helen Melohn : Oh, I love you for her loving ya. I'm in love with both of you. I'm in love with both of you! I don't know if I've ever loved anybody as much as I love the two of you.

Helen Melohn : It's none of my business, but, you know, sailors are kinda crazy and I'd nip that bird right in the bud and tell him what's what! All that talk I gave him about the prize he won, he knows it, does he. Yes, he does. Him, if he was mine I'd stick an anchor on him before 10 o'clock this morning!

Helen Melohn : Em, are you packin' to go away with him these last few days?
Emily Sears : Nope! We parted. Gay as two larks! Now, if you're sorry for me, you'll be sorry.
