Mrs. Anne Hilton:
Now never mind what she had. I have a little imagination.

Lieutenant Tony Willett:

Mrs. Anne Hilton:

Lieutenant Tony Willett:

Lieutenant Tony Willett:
All right, but I'm going to sound awful silly someday making verbal passes at you when we're both in wheelchairs.

Mrs. Anne Hilton:
[laughing] You are looking forward to that.
