- [Clarice's friend honks his car horn]
- Clarice's Date: We'll be right out! Hurry, Clarice, the horses are frothing!
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Snap it up, Paula!
- Paula Kendall: Hold still, baby.
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Well, we're going to be late.
- [to her date, referring to Paula]
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: She never goes to Mardi Gras.
- Paula Kendall: [to Clarice's date] She squirts seltzer bottles. Watch it.
- Paula Kendall: Now behave yourself or I'll come and chaperone.
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Oh, why don't you, Paula?
- Burton Williams: Go ahead, Paula. If you swung from a chandelier once in your life, maybe you'd forget this trip to the islands.
- Paula Kendall: Crazy youngsters.
- Burton Williams: As one old graybeard to another, what do you do for rheumatism?
- [Clarice and her escort kiss passionately]
- Paula Kendall: Stop it! Stop it! It's time you two were in bed.
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: [coyly] Why, Paula...
- Paula Kendall: Oh, ah, I-I didn't mean...
- Paula Kendall: [to Clarice's date] Now you'll just have to go. That's all there is to the matter.
- [Paula shoves the man out the door]
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Wh-where'd the nice man go? Nice man...
- [drunkenly whistles as if calling a dog]
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Where's the nice man?
- Paula Kendall: Clarice...
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: C'mon, nice man...
- Paula Kendall: Now, baby, are you sure you didn't get into any trouble?
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: Aw, no no no, no trouble. First we went to Oglethorpe's - we all went to Oglethorpe's for supper...
- Paula Kendall: Yes.
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: And then we went dancing at Bell Tavern, then we got married and then we all went for breakfast.
- Paula Kendall: What did you say?
- Clarice Kendall Andrews Cormack: I said we all went for breakfast.
- Stephen Cormack: I ought to divorce you!
- Paula Kendall: No, Mr. Cormack, you can't divorce me and you can't bawl me out because I'm not your wife. Just let me be a lesson for you. I'm the sort of thing that happens when you start proposing between drinks.
- Paula Kendall: You married my sister and you can't blame her because, well, you're nice enough to make any woman forget she has a husband and you can't blame me because I was trying to save my sister from jail. Why, you can't even blame Andrews because she was his wife! So you see, Mr. Cormack, it was all your fault.
- [Clarice snaps her fingers and Andrews follows her out the door]
- Patricia Cormack: Just like a poodle!
