Quote context

[...]

- You came. I'm so glad.

- Rachmaninoff!

- The second piano concerto. It isn't fair.

- Not fair? Why?

- Because every time I hear it, I go to pieces. Oh?

- May I sit next to you?

- Please do.

- It shakes me. It quakes me. It makes me feel goose-pimply all over! I don't know where I am or who I am. Or what I'm doing!

- Don't stop. Don't stop! Don't ever stop! Why did you stop?

- You know why I stopped.

- Why?

- Because now I am going to take you in my arms and kiss you very quickly and very hard.

- One moment, my dear.

- You came.

- Yeah. I came for the rugs.

- The rugs? What rugs? What is it you want?

- The bedroom rugs. I promised Mrs. Sherman to take up the bedroom rugs. For the summer, on account of the moths.

- Forget the rugs.

- Forget them? Your wife is gonna come home from the country and find the rugs full of holes - big, gaping holes. And who's gonna get blamed? The janitor. Always the janitor.

- If you're so worried, why don't you pick 'em up tomorrow morning while I'm at the office?
