Patricia Merrill : 650.
Joan McCarty : Mmm, I'm a lady too. I'll come down to 850.
Patricia Merrill : I want him. But he's going to cost me too much. Not a penny more than 750.
Joan McCarty : I don't want to make him swell-headed; but, he's worth that to me just to keep him around the house. Besides, he's got a swell smile. Now, that alone ought to be worth another hundred. Ritzy, smile for the lady.
Patricia Merrill : But, I don't want him to smile.
Joan McCarty : Oh. Oh, that's different. Without the smile, he's 750. Sold! To the lady in the gray dress with the lace cuffs for 750, without the smile.

Ritzy McCarty : No.
Joan McCarty : Not even while you were dancing?
Ritzy McCarty : Well, sure. But, I couldn't help it.
Joan McCarty : You didn't hold her close though?
Ritzy McCarty : No. Not too close.
Joan McCarty : Well how close?
Ritzy McCarty : Well, somethin' like that.
Joan McCarty : [moves closer] I bet it was more like that.
Ritzy McCarty : Well, yeah, somethin'.
