Quotes 

• Ruth Ballinger : Time's up. My, doesn't it fly when you're having fun? Well, who's it to be? Ferguson? Oh... almost forgot... she's on the special list, isn't she? Well?

  [Myra turns to face her] 

  Ruth Ballinger : Let me refresh your memory...

  [she walks to the other side of the room to be among the other women] 

  Ruth Ballinger : Graham? Willie? That'd give her plenty to weep about now, wouldn't it?

  Ram : Come on Ballinger!

  Ruth Ballinger : [ignoring him]  Lurch...

  [turning to Jenny] 

  Ruth Ballinger : Or what about our little socialite? Who else have we got?

  Nora Flynn : Why don't you just cut it out, you sadistic bitch!

  Ruth Ballinger : [tutting]  Temper, temper.

  Myra Desmond : Cut it Nora.

  Nora Flynn : No way. I was the first choice, so let's just get it over and done with.

  May Collins : [rushing to her]  Nora, no! The baby...

  Nora Flynn : The baby? I'd be doing it a favour. I really thought that I could get out of here and make some sort of life for my kid. What a joke!

  [her voice a quiver] 

  Nora Flynn : It isn't even funny. It's pathetic.

  [to Ruth] 

  Nora Flynn : Go ahead and do it.

  Ruth Ballinger : [applauding using her gun against her other hand]  Good stuff, Flynn. Real martyr material, but you're right... you're not funny. I think we'd get a lot more laughs if Desmond chose all our little martyrs from now on. Eh, Desmond?
