    Jerry : Oh no you don't! Osgood, I'm gonna level with you. We can't get married at all.

    Osgood : Why not?

    Jerry : Well, in the first place, I'm not a natural blonde.

    Osgood : Doesn't matter.

    Jerry : I smoke! I smoke all the time!

    Osgood : I don't care.

    Jerry : Well, I have a terrible past. For three years now, I've been living with a saxophone player.

    Osgood : I forgive you.

    Jerry : [tragically]  I can never have children!

    Osgood : We can adopt some.

    Jerry : But you don't understand, Osgood! Ohh...

    [Jerry finally gives up and pulls off his wig] 

    Jerry : [normal voice]  I'm a man!

    Osgood : [shrugs]  Well, nobody's perfect!

    [Jerry looks on with disbelief as Osgood continues smiling with indifference. Fade out] 

  • Osgood : I am Osgood Fielding the third.

    Daphne : I'm Cinderella the second.

  • Osgood : You must be quite a girl.

    Daphne : Wanna bet?

  • Osgood : [referring to his mother]  Right now, she thinks I'm out there on my yacht - deep sea fishing!

    Daphne : Well, pull in your reel, Mr. Fielding, you're barking up the wrong fish!

  • Osgood : You know, I've always been *fascinated* by show business.

    Daphne : Is that so?

    Osgood : Yes. As a matter of fact it's cost my family quite a bit of money.

    Daphne : Oh, you invest in shows?

    Osgood : Showgirls. I've been married seven or eight times.

    Daphne : You're not sure?

    Osgood : Mama is keeping score.

  • Osgood : Which of these instruments do you play?

    Jerry : Bull fiddle!

    Osgood : Fascinating! Do you use a bow or do you just pluck it?

    Jerry : Most of the time, I *slap* it!

  • Osgood : [to the elevator operator]  All right, driver, once around the park, slowly, and keep your eyes on the road.

  • Osgood : Daphne.

    Jerry : Hmm?

    Osgood : You're leading again.

    Jerry : Sorry.
