- Jerry Dexter: I thought a ride in the park would
- [hiccups]
- Jerry Dexter: calm your nerves.
- Cassie Barnes: Well there's nothing wrong with my nerves.
- Jerry Dexter: No?
- Cassie Barnes: No.
- Jerry Dexter: Well maybe you'd come with me. I need the air.
- Cassie Barnes: Yeah? Well I'm giving you the air.
- Jerry Dexter: Oh, go away, I hate blondes.
- Cassie Barnes: Well, I hate drunks; so, that makes us even.
- Cassie Barnes: What have you got against the world? It seems to be treating you all right.
- Jerry Dexter: I'm fed up. That's all. Fed up with - formal dinners, pompous butlers, and - and...
- Cassie Barnes: And blondes.
- Cassie Barnes: Say, was it a blonde that drove you to drink?
- Jerry Dexter: Oh, no. I don't need anybody to drive me to drink. I can do that myself.
- Cassie Barnes: It certainly must have been a wild party last night.
- Jerry Dexter: Oh, I don't know. I didn't stay there long. I ducked and spent the night in a speakeasy. I had to get away from those cackling women.
- [Falls on Cassie's lap]
- Jerry Dexter: Oh, excuse me. I beg your pardon.
- Cassie Barnes: Well, don't tell me they were all blondes?
- Jerry Dexter: Did I say I hated blondes? Well, I was wrong! 'Cause I hate brunettes too! Yes, and redheads.
- Cassie Barnes: What have the poor things done to you?
- Jerry Dexter: Do you know what I'm going to do, the rest of my life?
- Cassie Barnes: No.
- Jerry Dexter: I'm going to spend the time looking for an honest woman. You think I'll ever find one?
- Cassie Barnes: No, never.
- Jerry Dexter: You're right! There ain't no such animal.
- Jerry Dexter: You know, you're quite a novelty. Most of the girls around here seem to spend their time competing to see who can get blotto first.
- Jerry Dexter: Well, you know, I like to get tight once in awhile.
- Cassie Barnes: Why?
- Jerry Dexter: Oh, it takes me to strange places, where I meet strange people. Like you - for instance.
- Cassie Barnes: Is that supposed to be a compliment?
- Jerry Dexter: Do you want to go out somewhere or prefer to sit around here and talk.
- Cassie Barnes: Sit around here and - talk? Can that be done?
