- Connie: You wouldn't ruin a ladies reputation, would you?
- Babe Stewart: No! No-no-no. No neighbors, have you? Mmm! Pajamas.
- Connie: Lounging pajamas.
- Babe Stewart: Oh, I'm glad you told me.
- Connie: Well, what's been happening that's exciting? Did the Drug Store get in the banana flavored ice cream yet?
- Connie: Oh, you look grand darling. If we weren't married, I'd flirt with you.
- Babe Stewart: Why don't you try it anyway?
- Connie: Just a New York cowboy aren't you? Passing through and giving a little small town girl her big moment.
- Connie: The girl who lands him will say no and put an anchor on it... But isn't it tough when all you can think of is yes?
- Kay Everly: Try sticking around, Babe. I haven't seen you in a month.
- Babe Stewart: Listen, kid. That thing you've got on is pretty thin but I've got tough skin, see - and I don't feel it.
- Babe Stewart: You're sure Morton's check won't bounce back?
- Kay Everly: I lined up Morton, didn't I? I told you he's President of the Riverside Bank.
- Babe Stewart: There you go! It'll bounce back sure, a Bank President.
- Kay Everly: All right, let's have it! Who'd you meet on that boat?
- Babe Stewart: The steward's grandmother. And did she have "It".
- Kay Everly: Babe, I miss you so! You can't let me down this way after what we've been to each other.
- Babe Stewart: You know what gets me is why women can't laugh when it's over. It was all right, wasn't it? Whatcha bawlin' about? When you joined up with us it was a business proposition - pure and simple. Keep it simple, will ya.
- Kay Everly: Why did you make love to me? Go on, tell me! Why did you?
- Babe Stewart: You know I'm a hit and run guy. Never gonna have to comb any gal out of my hair.
- Kay Everly: Not even answering my radiograms?
- Babe Stewart: I ever tell you I loved you? You bet I didn't! I'm a square shooter.
- Charlie Vane: Babe, I sure wish you'd take me with ya. All right, all right. I won't say it again.
- Babe Stewart: I told you I want you to keep eyes on Collins and your fists on Kay.
- Charlie Vane: Do you really think she'd go to the DA?
- Babe Stewart: Well, unless she trips over a new brand of kisses in a hurry. I can't take a chance.
- Connie: No, George, I'm not sore at you. I wish I were, then there'd be some hope. Sure, I like you, George; but, where do we go from there?
- Babe Stewart: Who's the live wire?
- Clerk: That's Connie Randall, the librarian. A cute trip. But, oh boy, is she a handful.
- Connie: Well, would you like Shakespeare?
- Babe Stewart: Oh, Shakespeare's all right. But, you know how it is. Some nights you just don't feel like Shakespeare.
- Connie: No.
- Connie: You could be nice. Try it sometime.
- Babe Stewart: I might even be nice if you liked it.
- Connie: You write the words and the music, don't you?
- Babe Stewart: Clever girl.
- Connie: Yes, I thought I told you that.
- Babe Stewart: See you at nine o'clock.
- Connie: Sure of yourself, aren't you?
- Babe Stewart: I wouldn't be if I was sure of you.
- Connie: I have a date. I have a steady date, every night - with my bed.
- Connie: That's the freshest specimen that ever stepped in this library. And he asked me to go out with him! Is he looking?
- Mattie: No.
- Connie: You sure?
- Mattie: Ah-huh. You do want to go out with him, don't you Connie?
- Connie: He is nice, isn't he.
- Mattie: He's reading now.
- Connie: Make sure.
- Mattie: He's reading.
- Connie: He has lovely dimples, doesn't he? Did you notice? And when he smiles at you...
- Mattie: Oh, go ahead Connie.
- Connie: Oh! You scared me. It's time to go. We'll be closing. It's nine o'clock.
- Babe Stewart: What do you do with all the hearts you break? Hmm?
- [long kiss]
- Connie: [after a long kiss with Babe] You shouldn't have done that. I must go and you must go. See you in church.
- Mrs. Randall: I bet Mr. Stewart doesn't hear any better preaching in New York than he heard today.
- Babe Stewart: I'm afraid you're right, Mrs. Randall.
- Willie Randall: What time you going up to the lake, Connie?
- Babe Stewart: Going on a trip somewhere?
- Willie Randall: Yeah, she's going up to Lake Inspiration with Charlie.
- Babe Stewart: Oh, I see.
- Mrs. Randall: The Get-Together Club goes up there every year. It's just a little crowd, dancing, running, games, you know.
- Mrs. Randall: Connie, if you must go to the lake, for heaven's sake don't ask Mr. Stewart. Those hoodlums, drinking and card playing, he'll get the wrong impression of you!
- Connie: Well, I didn't ask him, mother.
- Mrs. Randall: Oh, no. You didn't ask: Quiet lake. Pale moon. Pine trees. Soft breezes.
- Babe Stewart: I suppose half of Glendale goes up to Lake Inspiration, hmm?
- Clerk: No wonder. But, if you ask me, there's no sense in trekking way up there. The floors no good to dance on. I could never dance on it. Well, you can pass away the holiday right here in Glendale.
- Babe Stewart: Yeah. You can pass away any day in Glendale.
- Connie: What on earth are you doing way up here?
- Babe Stewart: Well, you invited me up, didn't you?
- Connie: Yes. But, I didn't think you'd accept.
- Babe Stewart: I never disappoint a lady.
- Connie: Oh, how thoughtful of you.
- Babe Stewart: Well, here I am.
- Babe Stewart: Now, let's talk this whole thing over.
- Connie: Well, why don't you say something?
- Babe Stewart: You're awfully sweet.
- Connie: You think so?
- Babe Stewart: Mm-hum. And that isn't all.
- Connie: What else?
- Babe Stewart: Oh, a lot of things.
- Babe Stewart: It's very proper. We're dancing. Come on, you like this.
- Connie: Well, I hadn't thought about it. Will you give me till tomorrow to answer?
- [Babe squeezes Connie closer]
- Connie: Please, you don't interest me that way, really. Doesn't that hurt your pride?
- Babe Stewart: No. You're much too pretty.
- Connie: Of course, I forgot. I promised Charlie I'd meet him at the dance.
- Babe Stewart: Certainly. Why don't you go?
- Connie: Because you fascinate me.
- Connie: [Babe kisses Connie] You still refuse to be nice, don't you?
- Babe Stewart: All right. What does a nice guy do? Sit around and talk?
- Connie: Yes. I know some nice people who talk.
- Babe Stewart: Lovely evening, isn't it.
- Connie: Charming.
- Babe Stewart: You think it will rain tomorrow?
- Connie: Oh, it probably will. It's a holiday.
- Babe Stewart: Well, that takes care of the weather.
- Babe Stewart: Why keep kidding around like this?
- Connie: I'm not kidding. Only, well, you just walk in and pick up a girl and walk out. Is that fair?
- Babe Stewart: No. No, you're right.
- Connie: Why don't you be a sport? Why don't you give a girl a break? Why don't you take a chance?
- Babe Stewart: I don't get you?
- Connie: Have you ever gambled?
- Babe Stewart: Yeah, I'll gamble on anything.
- Connie: Why don't you gamble with me.
- Babe Stewart: Well, here we go.
- [Babe takes Connie's coat, takes off her hat, takes her purse out of her hands]
- Babe Stewart: You know its all right.
- [Connie embraces Babe. Next scene shows Connie smiling in bed, in her negligee, with the night train they are riding on coming out of a tunnel]
- Connie: Darling, don't keep me waiting too long. I'm liable to get lonesome.
- Babe Stewart: All right, honey.
- Charlie Vane: You're not really gonna bring along that kid from the sticks?
- Babe Stewart: You wait till you see her all dolled up. You know, I have a hunch she'll make Kay and all the others look like a pair of deuces.
- Babe Stewart: Honey, you knocked 'em dead tonight.
- Connie: What a break for little Connie. The only girl with four men. You can't deny I was the most popular woman there.
- Connie: Are you a millionaire or something? Losing three thousand dollars, that way, in one evening. I never knew there was that much money in the world.
