Mrs. Higgins
- Elizabeth: Oh, my duck does a wonderful trick. My duck can lay an egg.
- Mrs. Higgins: And just what is so wonderful about that?
- Elizabeth: Well, can *you* lay an egg? (pause)... Oh, excuse me.
- Mrs. Higgins: Under the circumstances, I have made every allowance for you, but when you bring animals into the dormitory, I must act.
- Elizabeth: That's what my daddy and mommy used to do!
- Mrs. Higgins: What?
- Elizabeth: Act!
- [both sobbing]
- Mrs. Higgins: Henrietta, what are you blubbering about?
- Mrs. Denham: I can't help it. I'm so happy.
- Mrs. Higgins: There's no need to be sentimental.
- Mrs. Denham: Well, what are *you* crying for?
- Mrs. Higgins: Why shouldn't I? Why can't I be happy, too?
