Kenneth Nolan
- Kenneth Nolan: My father, God bless him, is a bit of a screwball.
- Virginia Travis: What? Is he really screwy?
- Kenneth Nolan: I didn't say "screwy". I said "screwball".
- Kenneth Nolan: Do you look at everybody like that or just me?
- Virginia Travis: What?
- Kenneth Nolan: You know you ought to do something about your eyes.
- Virginia Travis: My eyes?
- Kenneth Nolan: Yes. You shouldn't look at young men like that.
- Kenneth Nolan: And I like to listen to the wild geese flying. And I like to look at the moon and watch it gliding past the tree the way it's doing now. I like - If you don't mind my saying so - I - I like you.
- Virginia Travis: Do you like to walk up an escalator that's going down?
- Kenneth Nolan: Why yes, I do! Do you like to hold your breath in the bathtub?
- Virginia Travis: This is uncanny. Do you like to read backwards to yourself?
- Kenneth Nolan: Why yes! I recite the alphabet backwards. Z-Y-X-W-V-U-T-S-R-Q.
- Virginia Travis: Oh, don't you feel in a mood?
- Kenneth Nolan: Yes. I - I feel in a mood; but, I don't know exactly what it is.
- Virginia Travis: Yoo Hoo.
- Kenneth Nolan: Yoo Hoo.
- Virginia Travis: Yoo Hoo!
- Kenneth Nolan: Yoo Hoo.
- Virginia Travis: Yoo Hoo.
- Kenneth Nolan: Yoo Hoo. Yoo Hoo. Yoo Hoo. Yoo Hoo.
- [opens the door, surprised to see Nina]
- Kenneth Nolan: Oh, you.
- Kenneth Nolan: Is she all right?
- Judy: I've put her to bed. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
- Kenneth Nolan: Well, I didn't do anything.
- Judy: That's the trouble.
- Kenneth Nolan: I was just going to beddy-bye. Bye.
- Nina Tennyson: That's right, darling. I'll tuck you in!
- Kenneth Nolan: Oh, there's an awful lot of tucking in going on around here tonight.
- Kenneth Nolan: Virginia, are you all right?
- Virginia Travis: Boy, oh boy, oh boy.
- Kenneth Nolan: Well, now, you just get a good night's sleep and you'll feel fine in the morning.
- Virginia Travis: Tuck me in.
- [Kenneth tucks and turns out the light]
- Kenneth Nolan: People don't know what they're missing, staying out of trees.
- Virginia Travis: Monkeys know.
- Virginia Travis: Is somebody else coming?
- Kenneth Nolan: I didn't invite anybody else. Did you?
- Virginia Travis: Only you.
- Kenneth Nolan: Only us. And a tree. All night. Ah, we'll build a new world of our own. And the sun of a new day will rise on that new earth. We'll be Adam and Eve in a tree!
- Virginia Travis: Adam and Eve.
- [smiles, closes her eyes, snuggles up to Kenneth]
- Virginia Travis: It looks pretty hanging there.
- Kenneth Nolan: Mighty pretty, mighty pretty. Yeah. Very pretty, very pretty. Mighty pretty, mighty pretty. It certainly does.
- Kenneth Nolan: You know, you're the first night tree climber I ever saw.
- Virginia Travis: Oh, anybody can climb a tree in the daytime.
