The Age of Consent

The Age of Consent1932



Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
You're a good-lookin' girl.

Dora Swale:
Ya think so?

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
You're bright...

Dora Swale:
Oh, I get it. Bein' bright don't getcha nowhere--just lookin' dumb. When I first got this job, I usta go home nights and study grammar. I thought it might help me if I talked better. But after goin' out with a couple of these apes around here, I threw the grammar out the window and went in for self-defense.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Well, after all creation didn't stop when they made THESE gorillas. You oughta know some nice fellas that...

Dora Swale:
Sure, you mean in my own class.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Oh well, I didn't mean...

Dora Swale:
Oh, it's ok. Listen precious, it ain't much fun after workin' hard all day and goin' home nights and just goin' to bed, but it's much better than sittin' around the rest of your life listenin' to some iceman's helper yawnin' himself to sleep.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Yeah, I guess you got life pretty tough at that.

Dora Swale:
Oh, I ain't complainin'--not as long as YOU think I'm goodlookin'.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
What's that got to do with it?

Dora Swale:
Oh, it just helps me go on.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Don't look at me--I'm gonna be a missionary.

Dora Swale:
You'd make a SWELL missionary.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
[not sure if he's been insulted] What do you mean by that?

Dora Swale:
Oh, you arouse my savage instincts. [Mike grins broadly.] She hit ya pretty hard, didn't she?

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Whaddya mean?

Dora Swale:
How about the chicken patties? We're trying to get rid of them.

Michael 'Mike' Harvey:
Alright, wheel 'em in.

Dora Swale:
[shouting] Chicken patties for one!
