• Jack Carson : [after being slapped]  What was that for?

  Joan Crawford : Oh, I do that in all my pictures.

• Jack Carson : She gave you a chance to be directed by Carson.

  Dennis Morgan : Directed! You couldn't even teach Lassie how to act like a dog!

• Jack Carson : Believe me, Dennis, I'll see to it that she is as good in this as Jane Wyman was in Johnny Belinda.

  Dennis Morgan : She didn't even *talk* in that one!

  Jack Carson : Well, you can't have *everything*.

• [phone rings] 

  Jack Carson : Hey, maybe that's her... er, or sh-she. Not that I care.

• Jack Carson : But Dennis! Dennis, you've got to help me find a leading lady. Look. We're pals! Buddies! When you first came to Hollywood, down on your luck, broke, didn't have what to eat, who gave you the first square meal?

  Dennis Morgan : Salvation Army!

  Jack Carson : Well, who phoned them?

  Dennis Morgan : Who gave you the nickel?

  Jack Carson : It was a slug!

• Jack Carson : Hey Dennis, I think you've got something there. I'll discover her. I'll put her in the picture. I'll direct her, and that beautiful little doll will be grateful to me! *Very* grateful.

  Dennis Morgan : Oh, no. *I* will discover her. I'll play the love scenes with her. We'll rehearse at my house at night. And she will be very grateful to *me*.

• Jack Carson : Oh, well, I can't worry about every girl's heart I break. I'd be staying up nights.

• Jack Carson : You're new here, aren't you?

  Judy Adams : Well, I've only been at Warner Brothers a little while, but I've been in Hollywood three months, four days and 22 hours.

  Jack Carson : Oh, a native, huh?

• Jack Carson : Well, I guess I'll go get myself a glass of orange juice.

  Dennis Morgan : I think I'll go get myself a glass of milk.

• Jack Carson : Hey, uh, you think you could spare me for a minute? I forgot about a phone call I have to make.

  Dennis Morgan : Don't be too soon.

• Dennis Morgan : If you could make her think we're really a couple a heels.

  Jack Carson : Oh, now, Dennis. How could we possibly do that?

• Jack Carson : [to Dennis Morgan]  Mind if I join you for lunch? They won't deliver it to my dressing room anymore.

• Jack Carson : Oh, hello, Dennis. I was just saying some nice things about you.

  Dennis Morgan : I know. I saw the razor.

• Jack Carson : [Sitting on the grassy knoll behind the stadium seats]  Anybody wanna use the field glasses?

  Dennis Morgan : Oh, no. I'd rather guess at the whole thing.

  Jack Carson : Well, I'm glad they were sold out. It's so much more beautiful from up here.

  Dennis Morgan : Except when the clouds get in your way.

• Jack Carson : Hey, wait a minute, you didn't finish my nails yet.

  Agnes the Manicurist : You got teeth haven't you? Hello, Mr. Morgan.

  Dennis Morgan : Hello, Agnes.

• Judy Adams : This is a delicious lunch.

  Jack Carson : I wish it weren't. I better not get used to eating.

• Dennis Morgan : What'd you promise her to get her to do this?

  Jack Carson : You know, a part in the picture - the usual malarky.

  Dennis Morgan : Did you ever stop to think that maybe she believed you?

  Jack Carson : Oh, how could she? Everybody knows I'm a liar.

  Dennis Morgan : Maybe word hasn't reached Gurky's Corners yet.
