- Dan: Oh, I got another treat for ya.
- Lorry Evans: What is it?
- [Dan slowly closes the door, puts a bowl on the table, pours water in it, takes a hand towel and displays both sides like a magician before tucking it in as a bib, picks up his shaving supplies and starts lathering his face]
- Lorry Evans: Say... what is this treat?
- Dan: I'm gonna let you watch me shave.
- Lorry Evans: You're too good to me.
- Dan: Any woman who can get me to shave more than twice a week must have something.
- Alice - Dan's Shipboard Cook: Anything mo', boss?
- Dan: How 'bout some more catfish?
- Lorry Evans: No thanks. I've had so much now I'm about ready to meow.
- Dan: All right, Alice, you can take it away.
- Alice - Dan's Shipboard Cook: She ain't got half the appetite of some of yer other gals had.
- Dan: The conversation's more interesting when you keep your mouth shut.
- Lorry Evans: I'm kinda sorry I pushed you overboard this afternoon.
- Dan: Nah, it's all right. I like a woman with some spunk. Only don't make a habit of it.
- Lorry Evans: Hello. Never expected to see me again, did you?
- Dan: Well, I sort of thought I might.
- Lorry Evans: Thought my conscience would bring me back?
- Dan: I didn't count very much on your conscience.
- Lorry Evans: Well, I'm sort of a governess.
- Dan: Governess, huh? Who do you govern?
- Lorry Evans: Oh, the offspring of a old Southern family.
- Dan: What do you do? Teach them good manners?
- Lorry Evans: Not so far.
- Lorry Evans: I bet you've never even had your arms around a girl.
- Dan: Oh, yes I have. Part-way. She was a fat girl.
- Lorry Evans: Oh. Try puttin' your arms around me. See how I feel.
- Lorry Evans: Scared of me, aren't you?
- Dan: Certainly.
- Lorry Evans: Why?
- Dan: Because you're the kind of a woman that goes around pushing people off of boats.
- Lorry Evans: Scared of all women?
- Dan: Only those I've met.
- Dan: That one up there is Venus. If your in a fast plane, traveling at top speed, it'll take you 50 years to get there.
- Lorry Evans: I'd be too old to enjoy myself. What other trips have ya got?
- Dan: Well, if you just want to go on a short trip, you could run up to the moon.
- Lorry Evans: How long would that take?
- Dan: Probably make it in about 166 days.
- Lorry Evans: You. know too much for your own good.
- Dan: Oh, I ain't even started yet. You see that one over there?
- Lorry Evans: Oh, let's just look at 'em.
- Dan: [long kiss] What was that? A tidal wave?
- Lorry Evans: No, it was just me.
- Dan: Try it again.
- [long kiss]
- Dan: So, that's what it's like.
- Lorry Evans: So, you've had other girls on board?
- Dan: Sure! They were different kind of gals.
- Lorry Evans: How do you know I ain't the same as they are?
- Dan: Oh, you just put on a hard front. You know what you're doin'.
- Lorry Evans: All say I do. I'm going places!
- Dan: Do you like to dance?
- Lorry Evans: Sure.
- Dan: Are you good at it?
- Lorry Evans: Oh, I guess I can get by.
- Dan: Yeah, I guess you can get by.
- Dan: Can you imagine old man river washin' anything like you right up against my barge? Was that a lucky break.
- Lorry Evans: Was it?
- Dan: How about stayin' for dinner? We're gonna have catfish.
- Lorry Evans: I can hardly wait.
- Dan: Catfish for two.
- Alice - Dan's Shipboard Cook: Catfish for two.
