Monte Blanca
- Boris: I won't haggle with you, Monte. You'll either get five percent of the young lady's losses or a hundred percent of what I planned for you before you came in.
- Monte Blanca: Uh, huh, huh. Well, five percent is perfectly satisfactory. Heh, heh, heh, I was just trying to get the best deal.
- Boris: You have.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, I would have come up yesterday only I had not, uh, yet made my arrangements.
- Boris: Funeral?
- Monte Blanca: No, financial.
- Nan Spencer: [Rummaging through the wastebasket for the cashier's check Terry McCracken had given her] There's a thousand dollars in here.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, senorita, you are clever. What a place to hide money.
- Jay Williams: Look, Blanca, I'll make up the losses, but not all at once. Payments of $500 at a time.
- Monte Blanca: Senor, naturally, I am more than grateful, but, uh, I still do not understand why.
- Jay Williams: Well, not because of your character.
- Monte Blanca: Where would you find another manager like me huh?
- [They kiss]
- Rosita Rivas: Mmmm, that's right. No one can manage me like you do. But you are a thief and a no-good good-for-nothing.
- [They kiss]
- Rosita Rivas: Oh, but I like you.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, Rosita mia, never have you looked more lovely.
- Rosita Rivas: And never have you looked more guilty.
- Jay Williams: After Miss Spencer went out with you last night, I looked you up. As characters go, yours is not very good.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, there are a lot of rumors. They are not true.
- Nan Spencer: Oh, Monte, you were right about this table being lucky. Look, I won it all on 14. Fourteen again.
- Monte Blanca: No, no, no, you must not bet on that again. It could never repeat.
- Nan Spencer: Oh, that's what everybody's been telling me.
- Monte Blanca: No, a good roulette player is one who knows how to change. Now this time you should bet heavily on eight.
- Nan Spencer: Eight - why?
- Monte Blanca: Well, uh, eight and six make 14. Then ya bet on six. It's an infallible system.
- Monte Blanca: You, uh, are sure she is wealthy?
- Rafael: It's the surest thing in the whole world. She has the most expensive suite in the hotel. Her clothes - they are the most luxurious and the thinnest I have ever seen. And if this is not proof enough, she tipped me only 10 cents.
- Monte Blanca: She must be VERY wealthy.
- Monte Blanca: I, uh, suppose you have some way in mind I can repay you.
- Boris: That too has been arranged.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, fine, fine. But killing is out. I will not kill.
- Monte Blanca, Jay Williams: I will do my best to make Senorita Spencer ecstatic.
- Jay Williams: That ought a be good enough. You Cubans are supposed to be experts at romance.
- Monte Blanca: Ohhh, I am not a Cuban, sir. I was born in Brooklyn as a child. But I have a feel for romance.
- Rosita Rivas: And what did you think of your blonde?
- Monte Blanca: Uh, the blonde?
- Rosita Rivas: Yeah, yeah. I am told you are upstairs with a blonde.
- Monte Blanca: But there are many blondes upstairs. If you stand next to a women, it is 35 to one she is a blonde.
- Rosita Rivas: If was not 35 blondes, it was one blonde.
- Nan Spencer: I am with a man, but I'm going home alone.
- Monte Blanca: Oh, well, one of two things happened, senorita. You were insulted, or you were not insulted. And beyond that, you are not going home alone.
- Boris: So she was a wealthy girl?
- Monte Blanca: No, listen, Boris.
- Boris: She owns half of America?
- Monte Blanca: I can explain.
- Boris: She looses thousands every night.
- Monte Blanca: Boris, please. My information - there was a slip.
- Boris: Yessss! But luckily this time, Monte, you've landed on your feet instead of where you usually land.
- Rosita Rivas: Aha, so you are going upstairs
- [to the gambling room]
- Monte Blanca: Only to test myself.
- Rosita Rivas: You are through testing yourself. It is too expensive.
- Monte Blanca: Senor, $500 will save my life.
- Jay Williams: It isn't worth it.
- Monte Blanca: No? Well make me an offer.
- Monte Blanca: How can I gamble when I have no money?
- Rosita Rivas: When I have proved that with my own eyes, I still not believe it.
- Nan Spencer: I'm never gonna see Senor Williams again. Never.
- Monte Blanca: [Slaps his forehead] Then I die. When you leave, my body will be floating in the harbor.
- Monte Blanca: No no! Please, Rosita, listen to me. I have spent your money. I have lost at gambling. I have lied to you. But never have I been untrue to you.
