- Jack McGurn: [after eyeing Lily] Hey, who was that?
- Charlie Kawamura: No one worth knowing.
- Jack McGurn: What, are you kidding?
- Charlie Kawamura: She's not your type.
- Jack McGurn: Oh, is she your girlfriend or something?
- Charlie Kawamura: No, no, no. Just a girl.
- Jack McGurn: Just a girl? She's beautiful.
- Charlie Kawamura: She's my sister.
- Jack McGurn: You told me your sister had a face like a plate of steamed dumplings.
- Charlie Kawamura: You should see her without makeup.
- Jack McGurn: You told me she was 4 feet tall and squat.
- Charlie Kawamura: Hey, I've got lots of sisters.
- Jack McGurn: Um, hi. I'm Jack. I work with your brother Charlie. Are you Dulcie?
- Charlie Kawamura: Lily. Dulcie's my other sister.
- Jack McGurn: Hi, Lily.
- [shakes her hand]
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: [smiles] Hello.
- Jack McGurn: We were just wondering if you would like to join us for lunch.
- Charlie Kawamura: HE was wondering.
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: [speaking to Charlie in Japanese] What?
- Charlie Kawamura: [in Japanese] Don't come with us.
- [to Jack, in English]
- Charlie Kawamura: Look, I'm in a hurry. She's busy. Let's go.
- [leaves the store]
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: I can have lunch.
- [asks her employers in Japanese, and they reply]
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: I can.
- Jack McGurn: Great.
- Fumiko: [eyeing Lily suspiciously] Don't do anything I wouldn't do...
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: [in Japanese] You have a big mouth, Fumiko.
- [smiles]
- Jack McGurn: [after entering a local restaurant] So what are we going to order?
- [grabs menu]
- Jack McGurn: Can you read that?
- Jack McGurn: Yeah. My Japanese is getting better every day.
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: Actually, it's in Chinese. It might help you if you turn your menu up the other way.
- Jack McGurn: [smiles] Maybe YOU oughta order, I guess.
- Jack McGurn: I agree to hand out a bundle of leaflets, and you act as if I'm going out to kill someone.
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: Because you know one thing will lead to another, and it'll make you crazy. You can't spit against Heaven, Jack!
- Jack McGurn: Oh, don't give me that Japanese SHIT!
- Lily Yuriko Kawamura: [stares at Jack briefly, then silently walks away]
- Eddie: Do you have a history of labor union business, M-McGann, is it?
- Jack McGurn: Yeah. McGann. No, no I don't. I work at the cannery. I'm a fish masher.
- Eddie: You people caused quite a stir.
- Jack McGurn: It was a legal demonstration, sir. Perfectly within the Constitution.
- Eddie: Well, all that striking stuff is over now, mister. When Japs step on the beach, you think they'll take any notice of your banners? They'll stick a bayonet in your belly, grievance or no grievance. This is America, pal, so remember you're an American. We're at war now.
- Jack McGurn: What are you talking about?
- Eddie: Ain't you heard? The Japs just bombed Pearl Harbor.
