Ted Knowles, Jockey:
You know, you've got an accent just like old Shawn. On you I like it.

Margaret O'Hara:

Ted Knowles, Jockey:
That's my reputation. Then you did know all along who I was.

Margaret O'Hara:
I found out.

Ted Knowles, Jockey:
Interested?

Margaret O'Hara:
I should have known you were a jockey.

Ted Knowles, Jockey:

Margaret O'Hara:

Margaret O'Hara:

Ted Knowles, Jockey:
Say, what's your name?

Margaret O'Hara:
Margaret O'Hara.

Ted Knowles, Jockey:

Margaret O'Hara:
No place at all.

Ted Knowles, Jockey:
No place at all? Am I that hard on the eyes?

Margaret O'Hara:
You're not hard on the eyes at all, Ted, but you're a jockey. Goodbye.
