- Hugo Matuschek: [after Miss Novak sells one of the musical cigarette boxes] Well, what do you say now?
- Alfred Kralik: I think people who like to smoke candy and listen to cigarettes will love it.
- [Alfred Kralik has just been called into his supervisor's office]
- Alfred Kralik: Yes, Mr. Matuschek
- Hugo Matuschek: Eh, close the door. Kralik, why did you put me in that situation, in front of the whole shop?
- Alfred Kralik: Well, I'm very sorry, sir... but it was not my fault.
- Hugo Matuschek: Well whose fault was it? Mine?
- Alfred Kralik: Well... yes.
- Hugo Matuschek: I don't know what the difficulty is, but I can assure you, madam, that the word "impossible" is not in the vocabulary of Matuschek and Company.
- Klara Novak (Miss Novak): I'm so happy to hear you say that.
- Hugo Matuschek: Yes, and I mean it.
- Klara Novak (Miss Novak): Mr. Matuschek?
- Hugo Matuschek: Yes, madam?
- Klara Novak (Miss Novak): I was at Blasek and Company...
- Hugo Matuschek: Oh, madam, I'm sure you'll find much nicer things in my shop.
- Klara Novak (Miss Novak): Oh no, I mean I worked there. I'm looking for a job.
- Hugo Matuschek: Oh no, no, that's impossible! It's out of the question!
- Hugo Matuschek: Mr. Kralik, l've been thinking all day about what you said this morning.
- Alfred Kralik: I'm very sorry, Mr. Matuschek. I'm afraid I lost my temper.
- Hugo Matuschek: Oh no no no, I think you were right. I... I really believe that you'd be happier somewhere else.
- Alfred Kralik: [pausing, dumbfounded] Do you think so, sir?
- Hugo Matuschek: Yes, I'm sure of it.
- Alfred Kralik: Well, I... guess there's nothing more to be said.
- Hugo Matuschek: No.
