Joyce
- Melinda Greyton: Joyce, look. I've never seen anyone like him. Never.
- Joyce: Do you think he's attractive?
- Melinda Greyton: Ferociously!
- Lord Pennistone: I thought young what'cha-call-him, young Curragh, was going to take you out?
- Melinda Greyton: Well, I...
- Lord Pennistone: He's a nice fella. Bit conservative, I suppose, but I can't help liking him. Why isn't he here?
- Melinda Greyton: [pause] I don't know.
- Lord Pennistone: Well, don't you worry. He'll be along. Reliable sort of chap. I hope nothing's happened to him.
- Joyce: Father!
- Lord Pennistone: Well, accidents will happen. Dark night. Step in front of a car. Might not find the fella for an hour or so.
- Joyce: I don't see why you want to look like your own mother. It would be different if Major Curragh had a mother complex but I don't think he has at all. Or why would he like you?
- Melinda Greyton: If you'd read as much as I have, you'd know that practically every man in the world has a mother complex.
- Joyce: A shame we couldn't provide something gayer for your first party in London.
- Melinda Greyton: Oh, I don't mind. You're with me. Really, it's fun to watch in a--horrible sort of way.
- Capt. Hugh Ladholme: Do you like him, Joyce?
- Joyce: I think it might be difficult to like him. But it would be very easy to fall in love with him.
