  Eve Fallon : Yeah, if you can afford 'em.

  Richard Morey : Uh, how much are these?

  Off-screen Sales Clerk : Fifty-five dollars.

  Richard Morey : Give me four of them.

  Eve Fallon : Mmmmm. You must have lots of friends.

  Eve Fallon : Oh, but I couldn't.

  Richard Morey : Oh, but you could.

  Eve Fallon : Oh, but I mustn't.

  Richard Morey : Oh, but you must. And you will. How about some candy, too? Here you are. You like sweets?

  [piling on the candy boxes] 

  Richard Morey : One more.

  Eve Fallon : Please! I'll have to get a truck to carry all these things home.

  Richard Morey : No, you won't. My car's right here at the door.

  [to the sales clerk] 

  Richard Morey : Charge it, will you?

  [fade to the back seat of Morey's limo] 

  Richard Morey : An apartment, French maid, your own car and chauffeur. Doesn't it sound good?

  Eve Fallon : [deadpan]  Mmmmm. Too good to be true.

  Richard Morey : It... could be true.

  Eve Fallon : [sardonically]  And all I'd have to do is manicure your nails?

  Eve Fallon : [getting up to leave]  Here's my house.

  Richard Morey : But Eve, haven't you forgotten something?

  Eve Fallon : Yeah, my key, but I'll slip through the transom.

  Richard Morey : But what about the candy and perfume?

  Eve Fallon : Ah, give the candy to your chauffeur and use the perfume yourself.

  [Eve slams the car door]
