Lenore Brent : They tell me you killed Ferraro. How did it feel?
Dan Milner : He didn't say.
-
Mark Cardigan : What about tomorrow morning?
Dan Milner : All right, what about it?

Lenore Brent : He shoots them as they crawl out of bed.

Lenore Brent : Put some oil on my back, will you? Go on.
[By the pool: Milner to rubs the oil on her bare back]
Lenore Brent : Mmm, that's nice. You've got good hands.
Dan Milner : You like it nice, don't you?
Lenore Brent : Mm-hmm. I've always had everything nice. My grandfather had more money than he could count, but you'd like him in spite of it.
Dan Milner : I could like him *for* it!
Lenore Brent : He finally gave me a million dollars just so he could say every guy I met was after my money.
Dan Milner : And were they?
Lenore Brent : Oh, he'd have *loved* you for that snide crack.

-
Dan Milner : Are you in the oil business, or are you just spending your alimony all at once?

Dan Milner : Well, how do you do? I'm what you'd call a spoiled child of the poor.
-
Dan Milner : Do you mind if I join you?
Lenore Brent : Seems you have.

Lenore Brent : [to a musician who has recognized her from her "previous" life] Liz Brady went to Europe with a USO troupe. She never came back.

Dan Milner : Where have you been? I looked for you all day.
Lenore Brent : I stayed in bed. "Nimrod" went hunting again.

Mark Cardigan : You know, this is the most wonderful place in the whole world. You should see the buck I killed yesterday. You'll see the pictures as soon as Morro gets them in his album. He's makin' a scrapbook of everything I kill!
Lenore Brent : Yes, he mentioned it. He also said that, given the time and ammunition, you might very well rid the world of all animal life.

Dan Milner : Whenever I have nothing to do and I can't think, I iron my money.
Lenore Brent : What do you do when you're broke?
Dan Milner : When I'm broke, I press my pants. One time a dame walked into my room, just like you did right now. She'd been out in the rain. You know, I pressed her dress dry for her.
Lenore Brent : What did she do?
Dan Milner : Went in the kitchen, poured me some coffee.
-
Lenore Brent : I think you're the strangest man I ever knew.
Dan Milner : What makes you think you know me?
-
Lenore Brent : I've never been that direction. I've been the other way, but I'd like to be going that way. Tomorrow. Now.
Dan Milner : Why? What's out there?
Lenore Brent : Islands. Samoa and Tahiti.
Dan Milner : Bikini.
Lenore Brent : You're such a wise guy.
Dan Milner : You're not gonna find a thing except yourself.
Lenore Brent : I'd even like finding that.
-
Dan Milner : Are you for real? You sing like you do it for a living.
Lenore Brent : Thanks. I'd rather sing than clip coupons; but, I have a million dollars, so no one takes me seriously.
Dan Milner : With a million dollars, honey, it doesn't matter.
Pilot : Fasten your seat belts, please.
-
Dan Milner : Hey, you sing pretty good. I thought I'd buy you a drink.
Lenore Brent : I'm drinking champagne.
Dan Milner : I'm hip. Eighteen dollars a bottle.

Lenore Brent : Mine's Brent, Lenore.

Dan Milner : Will that dance offer still be good in an hour?

Lenore Brent : On a plate with fancy sauce and white wine.
-
Helen Cardigan : I seem to have heard of you.
Lenore Brent : I met your husband in Europe.
Helen Cardigan : He meets so many people. So many women. But I suppose that's the price a moving-picture star has to pay.
Lenore Brent : Well, it's a living.
-
Myron Winton : Gin rummy - that's my game.
Dan Milner : Later.
Myron Winton : Why not now?
Lenore Brent : He needs time to limber up his fingers.
Myron Winton : [laughs] Limber up his fingers! By George, I'll have to tell that down to the fellas at the office.
-
Lenore Brent : Instead of walking out to sea, I came here. Do you still have our champagne?
Dan Milner : Is it a big occasion?
[Lenore leans in and give Milner a long kiss]
-
Lenore Brent : Why didn't you write to me? I have money. I wouldn't have blackmailed you.
-
Lenore Brent : I'm a gambler myself.
Dan Milner : How high do you like to play?
Lenore Brent : If I told you, you wouldn't believe me.
-
Lenore Brent : [singing] You'll know, When it happens, You'll know, You'll need no one to tell you, When it happens, You'll know...
-
Lenore Brent : Were you in love with me last night?
Dan Milner : Yeah.
Lenore Brent : But tonight you're not? I guess that's the way I affect people.
