- Marian Adams: You never brought it up before tonight.
- Harry Adams: It doesn't mean I didn't think about it.
- [pause]
- Harry Adams: Why didn't she have a name? She was a person at least for a little while.
- Marian Adams: How did you know it was going to be a girl?
- Harry Adams: I knew. And I had a name. I had a name picked out for her.
- Marian Adams: Her. You had a name picked out for her. Joe told me about the endowment policy. The life insurance you took out before she was even born. And what about me?
- Harry Adams: Marian, the policy was for her education... college. But what the hell, you were the beneficiary.
- Marian Adams: Only because she died. And don't you think I should be the beneficiary? After all, I'll be your widow.
- Harry Adams: I think you're trying to rush me a little.
- [Marian starts to walk away]
- Harry Adams: Marian?
- Marian Adams: What?
- Harry Adams: Did the doctor say you couldn't have another child or was that your idea?
- Marian Adams: We discussed this all before.
- Harry Adams: You never gave me a straight answer.
- Marian Adams: What difference does it make?
- Harry Adams: Well, a decision like that should have been made by the two of us.
- Herbie Stoltz: Harry, why don't you get a divorce?
- Harry Adams: They still own half of you, Herbie. Oh, it's not the money. But for the rest of your life you've got a partner you don't need. You should know that.
- Herbie Stoltz: Yeah. They always got their hooks in you, huh? There's gotta be a way, Harry.
- Harry Adams: There's a way, Herbie. Believe me, there's a way.
- Herbie Stoltz: You're taking this very good, Harry.
- Harry Adams: Well, I'm glad she has someone. It might as well be Joe. Poor Joe.
