The Lonely Lady

[Jerilee approaches Walter by the pool]

Jerilee:
Walter? Walter, come to bed.

Walter:
Haven't you had enough wine? Go sleep it off.

Jerilee:
If you'll come with me. [He turns away] I'm trying to say sorry.

Walter:
With a head full of drink!

Jerilee:
We don't have to make love.

Walter:
Thank you.

Jerilee:
We could talk. We need to talk.

Walter:
Why didn't you go off with Dacosta? He would've enjoyed it! [angrily picks up garden hose] Or is this more your kick?

Guy:
Bud, this is Jerilee. She's Mr. Thornton's assistant.

Bud:
Sure. I hope you can spell, darling.

Jerilee:
D - A - R - L - I - N - G

Jerilee:
[reading a review]: 'Sensitive and perceptive stories which vividly demonstrate the inadequacy of liberal values in the face of evil.' What does that mean, Walter?

Walter:
It means your stories vividly demonstrate the inadequacy of liberal values in the face of evil!

Doctor:
[Jerilee's mother comes to the hospital after Jerilee's nervous breakdown] A neighbor brought her in, Mrs. Randall. She was suffering from paranoia and hallucinations.

Veronica Randall:
There's never been anything like that on my side of the family.

Doctor:
Her condition was drug induced at the time. Tranquilizers, cocaine, amphetamines, alcohol. Would you know about her... eh... problems?

Veronica Randall:
She's always been difficult.

Jerilee:
[while accepting a major award] I don't suppose I'm the only one who's had to f*** her way to the top.
