- Laura: Take your bloody hands off me! Don't you ever touch me again. Who do you think you're dealing with? Some little groupie that jumps when you call? Is that who you think I am? We met. I liked you. We made it. What do you think it was, true love? And you think I used you. What about you using me? Everybody uses everybody. Don't they?
- Tony Manero: Oh wow, this is a flash I can't
- [shocked, smiling]
- Tony Manero: I've never been asked to leave before.
- Laura: Oh, don't take it personally.
- Tony Manero: Well I've got to, there's nobody else here in the room!
- Laura: [To Tony, after he protested that they had a relationship] Guys like you aren't relationships, they're exercise.
- Tony Manero: [peering through her door] I just wanted to tell you, I think you're an incredible dancer.
- Laura: [smiling, then turning away] Thank you very much.
- Tony Manero: I'm a friend of Jackie Cole's, I'm Tony Manero.
- Laura: [smiling, disinterested] It's important to have friends.
- Tony Manero: [opening the door, trying to be suave] Yeah I was just saying that this morning over breakfast.
- Tony Manero: In case you don't know this, I used to be pretty incredible myself when I lived in Brooklyn.
- Laura: Really? What happened?
- Tony Manero: I moved to Manhattan.
- Tony Manero: I'd like to get together with you and maybe talk some time. Might that be possible?
- Laura: About what?
- Tony Manero: About how incredible you are.
- Laura: Thank you. But I do already know that.
- Tony Manero: If you appreciate me and I appreciate you, how about let's gettin' together and we could appreciate each other?
- Laura: Appreciate?
- Tony Manero: Yeah, like for many hours.
- Tony Manero: Well, if I don't see you anymore, nice meeting you, and nice being insulted by you.
- Laura: My pleasure.
- Tony Manero: When you dance, oh, man! I - I could watch you for hours, really! I mean, it's like watchin' smoke move or somethin'.
- Laura: I know.
- Tony Manero: Why did we even start this thing up, huh?
- Laura: Start - look, you came to me, remember?
- Tony Manero: You didn't do nothin', right? It was just me.
- Laura: Whatever.
- Laura: What did you do that for? You nearly broke my face with this door. I didn't even give you my best come-ons, and you try to mangle my face.
- Tony Manero: Well Jimmy, you see...
- Laura: Tony.
- Tony Manero: [huffy] Uh, whatever. You seem to take pleasure in treating women as if they were incredibly stupid.
- Laura: Hey look if you're mad at me, I apologize for that alright, I thought I was being sort of charming. I mean you did try to damage my head. But, look the thing is that I amazingly respect your dancing talent, alright, and I respect your womanhood. I didn't always respect womanhood, but since I moved into Manhattan I got this mature outlook on life. I don't smoke. I don't drink. I don't curse. Anyway, look if you're still interested, I would like to take you out and maybe we could go someplace, relax, have a drink, maybe have some dinner and uh...
- [he notes the change in her demeanour. He smiles trying to lighten the mood]
- Laura: We got to go someplace informal because my suits are all being pressed.
