Quotes6

  • Boy Wonder: OK, Miss Cake, let us see exactly how far down into it we can get.
  • Cathy Cake: Uh, into what?
  • Boy Wonder: Into the valley of indecency.
  • Cathy Cake: Well, that's a pretty crummy way of looking at it.
  • Boy Wonder: The trick, Miss Cake, is not to look at it at all, but simply limp to the edge of patience and let yourself fall.
  • Cathy Cake: You're scared of something, you're trembling like a leaf.
  • Boy Wonder: I'm not scared of anything, sweetheart.
  • Cathy Cake: If you're not scared of anything, how come you never go out of your house any more, huh?
  • [repeated line]
  • Cathy Cake: I want to see it all.
  • Boy Wonder: Hot, Miss Cake, hot work.
  • Cathy Cake: I can take it.
  • Boy Wonder: Ha, I'm sure you can. The day will come, Miss Cake, when you can't.
  • Cathy Cake: Not for me.
  • Boy Wonder: Perhaps not. If you're any good, it will. And then, Miss Cake, you will be faced with the, ah, penultimate decision. Do you do the, ah, intelligent thing and bow out gracefully or do you continue, against all that is holy, and make up your mind to vanish, once and for all, into the mists of self?
  • Cathy Cake: I'll go on, no matter what. I wanna be in the movies. I wanna be an artist.
  • Boy Wonder: Oh, ha, you mean you wanna do both? Well, then, you will be faced with the ultimate choice, won't you? You'll have to pick someone to abuse. The person closest to you generally fits the bill which, by then, Miss Cake, will be you.
  • Cathy Cake: You think you're treating me rough, but I don't care. I'll do anything you say, things that would've made me sick to think about just before I met you.
  • Boy Wonder: Would've made you sick to think about lying back down there, please?
  • Cathy Cake: You want me to take my skirt off?
  • Boy Wonder: Sure.
  • Cathy Cake: I hope you humiliate me. I hope you make me do dirty, disgusting, horrible things. Violent, savage things. Oh, would you hang this up for me, please?
  • Cathy Cake: What the hell was going through your head?
  • Boy Wonder: Going through my head? Well, to tell you the truth, Miss Cake, I didn't exactly have my head on my mind.
  • Cathy Cake: Well, if you mean your brain's in your ass, I couldn't agree more.
