Ann Brooks : You'll stop him?

Ann Brooks : [on the phone] How dreadful. Well, please go right ahead. No. No, I don't eat lunch. Besides, I'm not dressed.

Ann Brooks : Perhaps its a good thing we're arriving in Havana tomorrow.

Mr. Neil Davis : Are you the kind of person who always leaves a little champagne at the bottom of your glass?

Ann Brooks : No. But, I don't like hangovers.

Ann Brooks : You're awfully sure of yourself, aren't you?
Mr. Neil Davis : You're not very sure of yourself, are you?
