- Mirabelle: There's no sense to marrying a racketeer. They don't live long.
- Mary Magiz: Well, what's wrong with that?
- Daniel J. Dingle: Mary, how about a little kiss?
- Mary Magiz: Mr. Dingle, you forget I'm in mourning!
- Daniel J. Dingle: What's that got to do with it?
- Mary Magiz: Well how would you feel if you were dead, and I kissed somebody else?
- Mary Magiz: I'm disappointed in you Mr. Shoots.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Well, baby, what's the matter?
- Mary Magiz: Just because you know the backer of the show, doesn't mean you can take liberties. Some of us happen to value our privacies.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: What's the matter with me? I'm daffy over you, honey. The only reason I bought a piece of this show was so's I could be around and get more of a flash of you.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: I can't get married. I'm in one racket already. She's got me so daffy about her, I don't know what to do.
- Mirabelle: Well, suit yourself; but, goodbye career.
- Mary Magiz: Career? I'll be lucky if this show last a week and then what? Pounding more pavements, living on hot dogs and coffee. I want to eat and I want to eat now and I want to eat when I'm 40 and I want to eat when I'm 60 and I want to eat good.
- Mary Magiz: Shoots, you can't take your shoes off in a place like this!
- Mirabelle: They do in Japan.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Now, see, Japan.
- Mary Magiz: Well, they eat raw fish in Japan too!
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Your job is to take care of Mary.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Oh, no! I get paid to take care of you and nobody else.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Don't argue with me. There's a hundred dollar bonus in it for you!
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Oh, that's different. Come on, ladies. Come with Papa.
- Mary Magiz: You, pig! Look at my stockings. My best French imported stockings! You ruined them. Just look at them!
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Sure!
- Mary Magiz: Don't stand there gapping at me!
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: I'm not gappin', I'm gawkin'.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: You're a pretty good lookin' girl, as girls go. And you're a pretty smart girl, as girls go.
- Mary Magiz: Are you trying to tell me Mr. Magiz is not a wealthy man?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Not as wealthy as you think. I take care of his accounts.
- Mary Magiz: I'm not marrying Mr. Magiz for his money. Did you ever hear of love?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Yeah. You'll find it in the dictionary under "L".
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: I'm just Office Boy, see. Everything the name implies. I'm just his body guard to keep the other mobs from shootin' him up. I haven't got any part of Shoots racket.
- Mary Magiz: What are you here for?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Five hundred bucks a month. Only I don't save all that, see. Now, last month I only saved 465. This, eh, suit sent me back 35 bucks.
- Mary Magiz: You were gipped.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Well, two pair of pants, of course.
- Mary Magiz: You were still gipped!
- Mary Magiz: [sarcastically] Go on, tell me the story of your life. I'm dying to hear it.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Yeah? Well, when I was six years old, my father bought me a lollipop, you see. One of those big, all-day, suckers. A little gal I was crazy about ran away with it. And I learned about women - from her.
- Mary Magiz: Well, your lollipops will be safe with me.
- Mary Magiz: [to Office Boy] Run along doggy. Into the kitchen with your bone. My guests are arriving.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Let me give you a little tip. When you get a flock of jewels from Shoots - blow.
- Mary Magiz: If there's any blowing around here, you're going to do it.
- Mary Magiz: [walks in on Office Boy in his underwear, pressing his pants] Well!
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Next time, knock. Sometimes I take a bath, too.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: [sarcastically] Boy, what a performance. It had everything! Heart, tears, - and bologna.
- Mary Magiz: Mirabelle, out of the chorus for good!
- Mirabelle: Personally, I'd rather marry a slaughter house.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Well, babykins, how are you doin'?
- Mary Magiz: I want to talk to you alone. Would you mind coming to the room?
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Would I mind? Early to bed, as George Washington said.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Hey, get up off that bed! Where's your manners?
- Daniel J. Dingle: Oh, Shoots, you know I always go for something soft.
- Mary Magiz: Office Boy, I don't think we'll need you any more.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Okay. Well, so long. Be careful while you're over there, now, Shoots.
- Mary Magiz: Don't worry. I'm taking him.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Yes. Yes, I know.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: Isn't that nice. Lambikins is takin' me.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: She's class! I want you to beat it up there and kinda stick around, keep her company for awhile.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Say, what am I? A lady's maid?
- Car Salesman: Your car just arrived. Don't you love it?
- Mary Magiz: Oh! It's beautiful!
- Car Salesman: Isn't it! And how do you like it Mr. Magiz?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Well, if the wife likes it, it's okay with me.
- Mary Magiz: He is *not* Mr. Magiz.
- Car Salesman: Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: I'm not.
- Mary Magiz: Look here, you stick to your job. If you want to be a spy, I'll buy you a Confederate uniform.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: I wonder how I'd look in a Confederate uniform?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Let's sit down here and talk this over. I want a drink to wet my whistle. Oh, waiter.
- Waiter: Yes sir.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: What'll you have?
- Mary Magiz: I'm not drinking. I'm just talking it over.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: A pitcher of beer please and nothing for the lady.
- Waiter: Yes sir.
- Mary Magiz: A champagne cocktail, please!
- Waiter: Yes, ma'am.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: You're for you, 100%. And I don't blame you, duchess. I'll tell you a little secret, I'm for me.
- Mary Magiz: We've got a lot in common.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Well, I don't know about me; but, you sure are common.
- William T. 'Shoots' Magiz: What about Mary?
- Daniel J. Dingle: I'm not saying I didn't go for her before you copped her off. Now, she's your wife! And that's just the same as though she was dynamite. You never caught me fooling around with dynamite, did ya?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Try to remember that Shoots is in a better world.
- Mary Magiz: Oh, he was such a lovely man. So gentle. He was like a big dog around the house.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Yes. Yes. I know just how you feel. I had a Pekingese once that was run over.
- Mirabelle: Does he really know anything about horses?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Oh, he sure does! He's lost a fortune on 'em.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: You know, I am crazy for you the first time I see you.
- Mary Magiz: Why, Mr. Mikapopoulis.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: Why don't you give me tumbles?
- Mary Magiz: I'm sorry, I'll always be just a sister to you.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: I got a sister. She's no good.
- Daniel J. Dingle: That's enough.
- 2nd Bootblack: That shore is a short shine for you, Mr. Dingle.
- Daniel J. Dingle: Beat it!
- Mary Magiz: You think I'm just a digger.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Yeah, just a digger out of luck and there's nothing sadder.
- Mary Magiz: Office Boy, will you kiss a pal goodbye, just for luck?
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Sure. How can I lose.
- [kiss]
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Well, now what?
- Mary Magiz: Now what, yourself.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Gee, I must be even dumber than you.
- [kiss]
- Mary Magiz: I don't see any reason why we shouldn't part friends.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: Yeah, but, we ain't parting. You and me is going to Greece together. You know, I don't see my mother for long time. My mother drink nothing but sour milk. She's strong like the ox.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: I got big ideas about my country, Greece. You know those fellas, those tourists guides that show the people around the ruins? Well, no guide works the district unless he pays me! Luscious, I'm going to make Greece - the United Steps.
- Mickey 'The Greek' Mikapopoulis: [on the phone] I want to make reservations dis Friday on Ilse de France. Don't tell me to hold the wire, I want the Bridal Sweeps! For Mr. and Mrs Mikapopoulis.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Didn't you get enough out of Mickey?
- Mary Magiz: Well, that was my money! Smiley got it from Shoots and Dingle got it from Smiley and Mickey took it from Dingle and I took it from Mickey.
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: Oh, I see, a chain letter.
- Mary Magiz: If you'll call the minister, this is still your room...
- Jimmie 'Office Boy' Burnham: I wouldn't waste a nickel on a phone call!
- Mirabelle: [Avoiding a smooch from a drunken wedding guest] I'd rather kiss Mickey Mouse than a rat like you!
