- Have a good time, Mrs. Matuschek. Goodnight.

- Mr. Matuschek! Don't do that, Mr. Matuschek!

- Go away! Go away!

- No, Mr. Matuschek!

- Leave me!

- Why don't you go in, Kralik? I really think you should go in and keep your date.

- Now, Pirovitch, just do me a favor and deliver my note.

- Alright.

- I don't want to know what she looks like. If she's bad looking, I've had enough bad news for today and if she's lovely, it'll just make it more difficult. So don't tell me.

- No, I won't.

- Now, what's the name of that book?

- Do you see anything?

- Not yet. Uh... Oh! There's a beautiful girl!

- Really?

- Very beautiful, but no book.

- And a carnation.

- Uh-huh.

- I can't see her face. She's sitting behind a clothes rack.

- There's a cup of coffee on the table.

- Yeah?

- She's taking a piece of cake.

- Uh-huh.

- Kralik, she is dunking.

- Well, why shouldn't she dunk?

- Alright. Alright. Alright.
