[Morey sees Eve at the hotel drugstore counter buying aspirin. He enters and starts a conversation with her, finding out that she has just lost her manicurist job]

Richard Morey:
They have nice perfumes here.

Eve Fallon:
Yeah, if you can afford 'em.

Richard Morey:
Uh, how much are these?

Off-screen Sales Clerk:
Fifty-five dollars.

Richard Morey:
Give me four of them.

Eve Fallon:
Mmmmm. You must have lots of friends.

Richard Morey:
Oh, they're all for you.

Eve Fallon:
Oh, but I couldn't.

Richard Morey:
Oh, but you could.

Eve Fallon:
Oh, but I mustn't.

Richard Morey:
Oh, but you must. And you will. How about some candy, too? Here you are. You like sweets? [piling on the candy boxes] One more.

Eve Fallon:
Please! I'll have to get a truck to carry all these things home.

Richard Morey:
No, you won't. My car's right here at the door. [to the sales clerk] Charge it, will you?

[fade to the back seat of Morey's limo]

Richard Morey:
An apartment, French maid, your own car and chauffeur. Doesn't it sound good?

Eve Fallon:
[deadpan] Mmmmm. Too good to be true.

Richard Morey:
It... could be true.

Eve Fallon:
[sardonically] And all I'd have to do is manicure your nails?

Eve Fallon:
[getting up to leave] Here's my house.

Richard Morey:
But Eve, haven't you forgotten something?

Eve Fallon:
Yeah, my key, but I'll slip through the transom.

Richard Morey:
But what about the candy and perfume?

Eve Fallon:
Ah, give the candy to your chauffeur and use the perfume yourself.

[Eve slams the car door]
