Dora Swale: [as Mike enters the restaurant where she is a waitress] Hello, pollywog.
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: Hello, Dora.
[while looking for an empty booth to sit in, he overhears a couple talking loudly]
Unseen Female I: Whaddyou care if they're sharp or not? You can rub your beard off with a towel.
Unseen Male I: Wait'll you start to shave. Alright, alright, what about free love?
Unseen Female I: There's nothing free about MY love, Romeo. Just remember that.
Unseen Male I: You for sale?
Unseen Female I: Let's broaden the conversation.
Unseen Male I: When I get on a subject I like to stay with it. Hey, how about that butter?
[Disgusted with what he's hearing Mike gets up and moves to a different booth]
Unseen Female II: Stop it!
Unseen Male II: [Brays stupidly] I'm gonna find out things for myself. How do I know? Ya may be knock-kneed.
[Brays again]
Unseen Female II: I thoughtcha came to college to develop your brain.
Unseen Male II: Aw, who cares about brains? I come from a long line of people who work with their hands.
[Brays yet again, and we hear a slap]
Unseen Male II: Alright, alright, whaddya wanna talk about?
[Girl giggles incessantly]
Unseen Male II: That's not so funny.
[Mike rolls his eyes and moves a second time]
Dora Swale: Are you working out for the track team or is this a new game?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: I don't like free love with my meals.
Boy in next booth: Trouble is with you, you're old fashioned.
Girl in next booth: Maybe so, but what was good enough for my grandmother is good enough for me.
[She picks up her purse and starts to leave]
Boy in next booth: Well I don't want to be honorable with you unless it's absolutely necessary.
Girl in next booth: I'll call ya up sometime when I break training.
[laughs and walks out]
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: Don't they ever talk about anything else?
Dora Swale: What else is there to talk about? How about somethin' to eat?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: Oh, I don't know what I want.
Dora Swale: Gimme three guesses?
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: People ever talk about marriage any more?
Dora Swale: Some of the older people.
Michael 'Mike' Harvey: Why don't you get married? What do you hang around a dump like this for?
Dora Swale: Scrambled eggs are nice.
