• Bruce Pritchard : Hey, don't cry.There's nothing to cry about.

  Jill Matthews : I'm not.

  Bruce Pritchard : It's no good being in love if it makes you cry.

  Jill Matthews : I'm not crying.

  Bruce Pritchard : I only want to make you happy.

  Jill Matthews : Oh, you do.

  Bruce Pritchard : What?

  Jill Matthews : You do.

  Bruce Pritchard : That's why you're crying? Because you're happy? You're going to be crying for all your married life, then.

• Bruce Pritchard : I hate that bloody Geoffery, 'cause he kissed you before I did.

  Jill Matthews : I didn't know you then, did I?

  Bruce Pritchard : How fascinating! Some of them can move!

  Jill Matthews : Yes, and they speak, too. That one talked so clearly.

  Bruce Pritchard : Have you noticed, some of them have got five fingers. That bloke over there's got it.

  Jill Matthews : Sad, isn't it? Doctors say five fingers on the hand is almost impossible to cure.

  Bruce Pritchard : Oh, they get it from shaking, you know.

  Jill Matthews : Still, they all look terribly cheerful.

  Bruce Pritchard : Oh yes, some of them are very brave. Imagine, going through life on legs.

  Jill Matthews : Yes, and you'd be surprised how clever they are on those legs, once they get used to them. You know, some of them even dance.

  Bruce Pritchard : How fascinating! Do you think they'll dance for us?

  Jill Matthews : Oh no, they only do that on special occasions. They have to have injections first.

  Bruce Pritchard : What kind of injections?

  Jill Matthews : They inject them with gin.
