- Maggie Ryan: [enters the cockpit] Can we roll out, gentlemen? I'm getting tired of waiting.
- Dean Lowrey: Maggie!
- Maggie Ryan: [in amazement] Dean? You're a captain now?
- Ted Vanderway: Did you just fly in on a helicopter?
- Maggie Ryan: Oh, well, I like to make an entrance.
- Dean Lowrey: Uh, where's - where's Bridget?
- Maggie Ryan: I don't know. They just called me to fill in.
- Ted Vanderway: Yeah? Who's filling in the rest of her?
- [laughs]
- Maggie Ryan: [gestures at Ted] He won't be doing any actual flying, will he?
- Dean Lowrey: Well, welcome aboard, Maggie.
- Maggie Ryan: Thanks.
- [leaves the cockpit and closes the door behind her]
- Maggie Ryan: So - who else do we have?
- Colette Valois: [shows the flight crew manifest to Maggie, who takes it] A new hire - she's in the back.
- Maggie Ryan: [reading from the manifest] Laura... Cameron?
- Kate Cameron: My sister. I can't seem to escape her.
- Maggie Ryan: They put you two on the same flight?
- Kate Cameron: [holds up a copy of Life Magazine with Laura's photo on the cover] Hmmmmm.
- Maggie Ryan: Wasn't that something?
- Maggie Ryan: [reacting to the news that Bridget has resigned from Pan Am] Bridget loves Pan Am. She wouldn't quit.
- Ted Vanderway: Never trust a radio. They once lost track of me for three weeks in Brazil.
- [pauses]
- Ted Vanderway: Unless...
- Maggie Ryan: What?
- Ted Vanderway: She'd have to quit if she got married!
- Dean Lowrey: Uh, who? What, Bridget?
- Ted Vanderway: Oh Dean, the whole company knows about you two.
- Sanjeev: I didn't know.
- Ted Vanderway: Everybody but Sanjeev knows about you two. Did you get engaged?
- [Dean smiles and raises his eyebrows. Ted punches him playfully on the shoulder]
- Ted Vanderway: Aw, you son of a bitch!
- Maggie Ryan: Congratulations.
- [leaves the cockpit]
- Sanjeev: If you're engaged, why is she in London?
- Ted Vanderway: Oh, who knows where that woman ever is? She barely made it on the plane in Cuba.
- Sanjeev: She was in Cuba?
- Ted Vanderway: We all were. Flew out the last DC-6 full of released Bay of Pigs prisoners for Uncle Sam.
- Sanjeev: Plane with a mutiny?
- Ted Vanderway: Heh-heh-heh.
- Dean Lowrey: [dreamily] That wasn't a mutiny.
- Colette Valois: Tomorrow another plane takes off to someplace new. Vanished, today's mistakes. Their only trace: a touch more wisdom.
- Maggie Ryan: I think I understand you better in French.
- [peals of laughter]
- Maggie Ryan: [watches Colette take a swig from a champagne bottle in the galley] Thirsty?
- Colette Valois: An American man would say something, no?
- Maggie Ryan: Depends on the subject.
- Colette Valois: Family in Row 5 and 6... he's married.
- Maggie Ryan: Oh. Well, did you ask?
- Colette Valois: No, I don't care. I was only surprised.
- Maggie Ryan: Oh. Well, good. OK. That's very French of you.
- [they laugh]
- Maggie Ryan: Should we spike his food or his drink?
- Colette Valois: Both.
- Cabbie: [Maggie is changing into her uniform in the cab to the Pan Am building] You okay, miss?
- Maggie Ryan: [Firmly] Eyes forward!
