Boy Meets Girl

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
But don't you think he'd be good for Happy? He's an outdoor man.

Robert Law:
So's the guy who collects my garbage.

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
You won't drink too much in Vermont, will you Mr. Law?

Robert Law:
Only the heady wine air that has no dregs.

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
'Cause you're crazy enough without drinking.

Robert Law:
Talk about scope sweep. Boy, what a set up!

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
What a love story!

Robert Law:
A great love story.

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
A baby brings them together, splits them apart, brings them together again,

Robert Law:
Boy meets girl.

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
Boy loses girl.

Robert Law:
Boy gets girl.

C. Elliott 'C.F.' Friday:
Boy, I think you got something. Let's try it out on B.K. while it's hot.

Larry Toms:
Wait a minute. You can't act with a baby. They'll steal every scene.

Robert Law:
Are you selling motherhood short?

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
Come on!

Robert Law:
Come on!

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
Don't make fun of me.

Robert Law:
Fun? Well, I've never been so touched in all my life. Susie, I feel purified.

Robert Law:
Susie, can we be Godfathers?

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
Do you mean it?

Robert Law:
I mean it. Just you say "yes", and see how quick I'll get Hellinger to print: "Benson and Law Godfathering In June".

Rossetti:
I've got Larry Toms waiting in your office to hear your story. Come on.

Robert Law:
We haven't got any stories.

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
Tell him one anyway.

Robert Law:
Okay. Once there was a fairy princess who lived in a broken down castle, on a broken down river, with a broken down aunt. In fact, she was a broken down princess.

Robert Law:
I was a promising young novelist. Almost won the Pulitzer Prize in nineteen thirty, and now in nineteen thirty eight, I'm writing dialogue for a horse.

Rossetti:
Larry! Larry, take a breath. The boy's mean no harm. Exhale.

Robert Law:
I smell carbon exhaust.

Larry Toms:
One more crack...

C. Elliott 'C.F.' Friday:
"Tiger Tamer". There it is, right there in the corner. "Tiger Tamer" by J. Carlyle Benson and Robert Law.

Robert Law:
That's a forgery! Benson, we've been framed.

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
Why you...

C. Elliott 'C.F.' Friday:
This is the last prank you boys will ever play.

J. Carlyle 'J.C.' Benson:
I think you're very intelligent.

Mrs. Susan 'Susie' Seabrook:
Oh, I'm intelligent, but I don't know anything.

C. Elliott 'C.F.' Friday:
And Simmons, get me some trumpets that sound like trumpets.

Simmons - Friday's Film Cutter:
Um, you sure you don't mean trombones, Mr Friday?

C. Elliott 'C.F.' Friday:
I mean trumpets. I'm no musician, but I know what I mean. Trumpets... that slide!
