Dr. Gregory Burton
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: [as they're on the riverboat steamer] Where are you going?
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Mandalay. Or rather, 50 miles inland - the black fever country.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: [taken aback] What?
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Yes. There's an epidemic there.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Oh, how awful. Must you?
- Dr. Gregory Burton: I'm a doctor.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Does a doctor's degree carry with it compulsory suicide? It is suicide, you know.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: You wouldn't understand.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: I rather think I do.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Gregory, we arrive at Mandalay tomorrow. You're going up to the black fever country. Take me with you.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Oh, I can't do that. Don't you realize there isn't one chance in a hundred of coming out of it alive?
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Listen: we are two wrecked people. We *need* one another.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: You mean... you mean, if we come through, perhaps together we can make something of ourselves?
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Isn't that our only hope?
- Dr. Gregory Burton: It's getting hotter every minute, isn't it. How much longer have you got to stay on this stifling boat? Perhaps that's not my business.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: It's no secret. I'm going to Mandalay.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Nothing very attractive about that place.
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Nothing but the cool, green hills. It's a place to rest.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Cool, green hills. You're lucky.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Why didn't you tell the truth?
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: I couldn't bear to have all those people know about me.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: Know what?
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: I've been meaning to tell you. Have you ever heard of Spot White? Have you ever heard of Nick's Place in Rangoon? If you'd ever been there, you'd have seen me.
- Dr. Gregory Burton: You?
- Marjorie Lang [aka Tanya Borodoff]: Do you want to know the rest or is that enough?
