• Mrs. George Peters : You certainly can wear clothes. You know, I bought a dress in Paris; but, I'm afraid to wear it. My husband made me take it off. He said I looked nude. You know, like a wet seal. It's funny how men are. They like to see other women wear things like that. But, they want their own wives to wear Mother Hubbard's. Haven't you noticed?

  Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff] : Well, I've never been a wife.

  Mrs. George Peters : Well, you got somethin' comin' to you, my dear.
