  • Lou Peckinpaugh: How do you stand yourself?
  • Pepe Damascus: It isn't easy. No hotel will take me for the entire night.
  • Pepe Damascus: I hope my disgustingly cheap perfume does not offend you. I purposely stink to keep my enemies from getting... too close.
  • Lou Peckinpaugh: Well, they're better off than your friends are.
  • Lou Peckinpaugh, Pepe Damascus: All right, quit stalling. You got something to say, talk fast.
  • Pepe Damascus: Very well. There is no young Lisa, Caroline, or Priscilla, or whatever Mrs. Danvers told you.
  • Lou Peckinpaugh: She also didn't tell me it was Mrs. Danvers.
  • Pepe Damascus: It was she, who hired your partner to search for a certain missing object d'art.
  • Lou Peckinpaugh: Talk faster. I can't take much more of your voice.
