General Hospital1963

Lois Cerullo-Ashton:
Yeah, I know your type, Mr. Lorenzo Alcazar. Beautiful manners, not hard to look at. There is something very fundamentally decent about you that marches hand in hand with something very fundamentally dangerous. Which is what makes gangsters bad boyfriends and even worse business partners.

Lorenzo Alcazar:
I'm not a gangster.

Lois Cerullo-Ashton:
Because even with the best of intentions, which I'm sure yours are, their lives depend on secrecy and lies. They're used to getting whatever they want at any cost. They are basically spoiled, overgrown 6-year-olds running around with guns. And what sensible woman would want any part of that?

Lorenzo Alcazar:
What if I told this sensible woman that I have a master's from oxford?

Lois Cerullo-Ashton:
Well, then I would say congratulation on your intellectual pursuits. But that a well-read gangster is still a gangster. And I have learned something in my life.

Lorenzo Alcazar:
Mm-hmm.

Lois Cerullo-Ashton:
Yeah - I don't accept money from shady characters.

Lorenzo Alcazar:
You know, I don't think I've ever been called a shady character before.

Lois Cerullo-Ashton:
Well, then, you're long overdue - no offense.
