Kathie O'Hara • Katherine Butt-Smith • Baroness Katherine Von Luber
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: [after seeing the Feuhrer from his hotel balcony, he goes to the bedroom door] Hey! Hitler is here!
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: [Unimpressed from behind the door] Well I can't see him now. I'm dressing.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Life is what you make it. Life can be bright and beautiful, sunshine and daffodils. I agree with Browning. Robert Browning.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Oh, thank you.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: "The lark's on the wing. The snail's on the thorn. God's in His heaven. All's right with the world."
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Well, that is a truly remarkable bit of philosophy, Baroness. Coming at a time like this when the whole world's going behind a cloud.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Ah, you're just cynical. You've probably been reading Schopenhauer. He's a very cynical man. Very sad man.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Very cynical. You know, I don't have to read Schopenhauer to know that the whole human race is messing it up. Its just like you, Baroness. You messed it up something awful.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I think not. I believe: This above all, to thine own self, be true. And it must follow, the night, the day. Thou canst not then be false to any man. Shakespeare.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Yeah, well, that's more like it. Now we're getting somewhere. Hold still a moment, listen to this: Don't wait too long building castles in the sky. Or, while you're waiting, time will fly. Love songs are best when they're sung - in the Springtime, when everything's young. So, don't wait too long - or happiness may pass you by. Irving Berlin.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: You mean it's up to Hitler who can have babies and who can't?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Yes. It used to be the will of God. Hitler doesn't like that. Too many people might be born who wouldn't agree with him.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: It would make better sense if his mother'd thought of it.
- Baron Franz Von Luber: [Referring to Katie's objections to pre-marital sex] My dear, I'm fully aware of the American mania for respectability.
- Baron Franz Von Luber: [He takes two tickets out of his inside pocket] Separate compartments.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Separate compartments?
- Baron Franz Von Luber: Mmm-hmmm.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I might insist on separate trains.
- Baron Franz Von Luber: That might be overdoing it.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: I even found myself the other night trying to write some poetry. That should give you some idea.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Did you do it?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Oh, yes. I did it. Well, it's not so good. The thoughts not bad, though.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Well, how does it go?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Here you read it. Well, it just proves one thing: the man's in love.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: [reading] 'Let's make our love song one that will live / Let's make it one to forget and forgive / As life's shadows lengthen over the years / our love will strengthen through laughter and tears / I will know your thoughts / You will know mine / Without ever a word / Without ever a sign / We will know what is deep in each other's heart / We will know, for it must be, till death do us part.'
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Liebling, promise me you won't try to save any more countries.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: I've got work to do. You know, I've been getting my war news by following your honeymoon trail. Tell me, where did the Baron plan on taking you from here?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: To Norway. Where we'd be houseguests of the Quislings. Did you ever hear of them?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: No. But, I probably will.
- Gaston Le Blanc: Now do you believe I'm on the square?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Yeah. Yeah, but, bein' on the square today, brother, ain't what it used to be. You see, you're jabber don't jive.
- Gaston Le Blanc: Jive?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Cause if you're on the square, you like the bear. And the bear's nowhere. But, it won't take long to reet pleat you with a zoot suit and stiff cuff and get you back on the beam. Why in no time at 'll, you'll be cookin' with helium.
- Gaston Le Blanc: Huh?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Well, don't that make you hep? Ain't you plugged in or am I just beatin' my gums?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I can't wait to get back and see that lady. You know, that lady that stands out there in the harbor.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: You're looking at a contented man.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Why?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Well, you have to go back a long way to explain that. Yeah, I'd have to go back to when destiny threw us together. I was attracted, but, so differently. I was attracted more or less by, eh...
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: By, eh, my measurements?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: That's the idea. That's it. Yes, yes. You were lovely of form and face. But, I had the feeling that if a gnat dove into your pool of knowledge, he'd a broken his neck. But, then I found out there was more to you.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: What's come over you?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Me? Well, I'm a changed man. I actually find myself now with a silly thing called ambition. And I could swear it was for you. I want to do things.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: And you will too.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: But I still don't see how a lovely creature with your possibilities could a...
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: You're a newspaperman?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Yeah.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Why?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: That's what I wanted to be.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: It's that simple. Goodbye.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Now, just a moment. One last look. I want to always remember you, just the way you look tonight - today. Beautiful, isn't she, Elsa?
- Elsa: Yes, she is. And you are beautiful, too.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: You know, Baroness, the more I think of it, the more ungentlemanly it was, was it?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: What?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Getting you tight!
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I'm all right. Shall we have another?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I told you that you might make yourself at home, but, I didn't say you could take a bath.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Yeah, but, that hot water was so refreshing.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: I was dreaming about you.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: You were?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: A beautiful dream. Your last name - O'Hara? Right?
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Right. O'Toole. O'Hara.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: O - O.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Uh, oh.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I certainly can't stay here. He'll have the whole Gestapo looking for me.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Oh, we'll put a stop to that. Look, Ed, why can't you put her name on a casualty list? Then he won't have any reason to look for her.
- Ed Cumberland: Yeah. Yeah, we could do that.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Good.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: You mean: the Baroness is dead?
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Yeah. Long live O'Hara.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: I heard you in that huddle with the Nazis.
- Gaston Le Blanc: Yes. They are members of the Gestapo. But, I...
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: What does that make you, brother? You were awful pally-wally with 'em, giving out with that spy stuff.
- Gaston Le Blanc: Well, I have to keep in their confidence.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Oh, you do, huh?
- Gaston Le Blanc: I'm afraid I'm losing yours.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: You're darn tootin'.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: I got you a few things too.
- Katie O'Hara Von Luber, aka Katherine Butt-Smith: Ah, you shouldn't have done that Mr. O.
- Patrick 'Pat' O'Toole: Oh, that's me, scattering sunshine as I go along.
