The Age of Consent1932
Dora Swale:
[As Mike enters the restaurant where she is a waitress] Hello, polliwog.
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Hello, Dora. [While looking for an empty booth to sit in, he overhears a couple talking loudly.]
Unseen Female I:
Whaddyou care if they're sharp or not? You can rub your beard off with a towel.
Unseen Male I:
Wait'll you start to shave. Alright, alright, what about free love?
Unseen Female I:
There's nothing free about MY love, Romeo. Just remember that.
Unseen Male I:
You for sale?
Unseen Female I:
Let's broaden the conversation.
Unseen Male I:
When I get on a subject I like to stay with it. Hey, how about that butter? [Disgusted with what he's hearing Mike gets up and moves to a different booth.]
Unseen Female II:
Stop it!
Unseen Male II:
[Brays stupidly] I'm gonna find out things for myself. How do I know? Ya may be knock-kneed. [Brays again]
Unseen Female II:
I thoughtcha came to college to develop your brain.
Unseen Male II:
Aw, who cares about brains? I come from a long line of people who work with their hands. [Brays yet again, and we hear a slap.] Alright, alright, whaddya wanna talk about? [Girl giggles incessantly.] That's not so funny. [Mike rolls his eyes and moves a second time.]
Dora Swale:
Are you working out for the track team or is this a new game?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
I don't like free love with my meals.
Boy in next booth:
Trouble is with you, you're old fashioned.
Girl in next booth:
Maybe so, but what was good enough for my grandmother is good enough for me. [She picks up her purse and starts to leave.]
Boy in next booth:
Well I don't want to be honorable with you unless it's absolutely necessary.
Girl in next booth:
I'll call ya up sometime when I break training. [laughs and walks out]
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Don't they ever talk about anything else?
Dora Swale:
What else is there to talk about? How about somethin' to eat?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Oh, I don't know what I want.
Dora Swale:
Gimme three guesses?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
People ever talk about marriage any more? [Dora replies: "Some of the older people."]
Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Why don't you get married? What do you hang around a dump like this for?
Dora Swale:
Scrambled eggs are nice.
