- Lucretia 'Lu' Rogers: I've been on the train four days, and it was a little dusty coming in from town. Could I have a bath?
- Aggie Gates: On Thursday?
- Aggie Gates: Well, I don't reckon you'll be getting' drunk Saturday nights, 'n settin' fire to the barn. I'll try ya for a month.
- Lucretia 'Lu' Rogers: You're so good to me.
- Aggie Gates: That ain't it. I just don't want a fallen woman on my hands.
- Mrs. Vera Collins: I know you, Aggie. You come here to get my Pat riled up over that gal. You've been wantin' to throw her at him ever since she got here.
- Aggie Gates: I'm surprised at you, Vera. Pat has his poor ailing ma to take care of. Besides, he's too young to get married. I'll bet that boy ain't a day over 35.
- Pat Collins: You know somethin,' Aggie. I got a feelin' it ain't gonna be safe to spit on the sidewalk.
- Aggie Gates: You're right.
- Aggie Gates: Um, did you ever think of looking for a husband?
- Lucretia 'Lu' Rogers: A husband?
- Aggie Gates: You know, one of them tall critters, supposed to take care of us women.
- Pat Collins: Well Aggie, all I can say is, you sure do have fine taste in ranch hands.
- Aggie Gates: Thank you, Pat.
- Pat Collins: Who's that?
- Aggie Gates: My new ranch hand.
- Pat Collins: Uh, no offense, Aggie, but, the... there's somethin' about that shape that just don't seem right... Huh, wears his hair mighty long, what is he, a Mormon or somethin'?
- Aggie Gates: Ain't a Mormon and ain't a he. I got me a lady ranch hand.
- Pat Collins: Oh, well, that clears that up.
