Capt. Lockert:
You're taking a wickedly unfair advantage of me. I only thought I was doing what was expected of me.

Fran:
What I expected of you?

Capt. Lockert:
Not you alone, Fran. There's a tradition about this sort of thing. I thought civilized people knew where an innocent flirtation stops. For a civilized woman who's been married as long as you have, you're making a great deal of a small matter.

Fran:
It's not a small matter to me. I offer you my most abject apology.

Capt. Lockert:
If I might offer you one small word of advice, give up starting things you're not prepared to finish. It's quite evident they only lead you out of your depth.

Fran:
You think I'm not equal to your impudence? Look at the exhibition you're making of yourself.

Capt. Lockert:
I? Any modern schoolgirl could compete with this situation. You've got the most childish misconception of yourself. You think you're a woman of the world, and you're nothing of the sort.
