Duffy
- Steve Raleigh: Now, I'm going to do something for you Duffy. Here's the $200 you loaned me when things were tough.
- Duffy: Why Steve, I can hardly believe it.
- Steve Raleigh: You didn't believe I'd pay you back?
- Duffy: No, I can hardly believe I ever had it to lend you.
- Hamilton Brown: Where'd you find her?
- Steve Raleigh: In a boxcar.
- Duffy: I beg your pardon?
- Steve Raleigh: In a boxcar. You know the thing they carry horses in?
- Hamilton Brown: With a horse?
- Steve Raleigh: Yes!
- Duffy: Let me get this straight now, you found a girl and a horse in a boxcar?
- Steve Raleigh: Right!
- Duffy: And she's a great dancer.
- Steve Raleigh: Right!
- Duffy: You mean the girl.
- Steve Raleigh: Yes. The girl.
- Duffy: That's a relief.
- Jerry Jason: There's a strange woman outside with a child who *insists* on seeing you.
- Duffy: Have her arrested.
- Hamilton Brown: But, Steve, you can't put a show over with an unknown in the lead.
- Steve Raleigh: Why can't I? The picture people do it. They're always giving some unknown a chance and then praying for them to make good so they can cash in on a new star.
- Duffy: Yeah, but pictures are different Steve. They print them on celluloid. If the girl doesn't make good, they can just take a pair of scissors - cut her out, like that. Now, this girl gets on the stage and she has to stay there till the curtain comes down. By that time, you'll be over Newark, looking for a new backer and I'll be apologizing to the newspaper boys for having called you a smart Producer.
