Three Secrets1950

Phyllis Horn:
I'd like to speak my peace before I go.

Bob Duffy:
Just so you keep it under a thousand words.

Phyllis Horn:
Only two words. I'm scared. I mean it, Duffy. Ever since I sold my first script for five dollars I've been fighting to get to the top. Stepped all over people. Been ruthless, conniving. Fought like a man in a man's world and I made it. But I don't want to lose you, Duffy. 'Cause this is home plate. If I lose you I'll roam around like a homeless alley cat with no place to come back to. Don't throw me out.

Bob Duffy:
Why is it the only time you sound like a woman is in this crummy room?

Phyllis Horn:
'Cause it's ours, Duffy.

Bob Duffy:
I shouldn't let you in.

Phyllis Horn:
You couldn't keep me out. It's always been that way, Duffy. [They kiss]
