- Tom Ferris: But you're blonde.
- Julietta Parodi: It's not allowed?
- Tom Ferris: Oh, I'm not complaining. But, it's just that I never think of brunettes as blondes. I-I mean Italian. I-I mean it's usually more one way than the other. I mean, whatever the other way was, I like it better your way. Yes, that's what I mean.
- Tom Ferris: Well, yours ain't too bad.
