Sterling Script Lines - S2: Episode 12
1) Sally: You're mean!
Betty: You bet. 2) Bert: Dammit, Alice, I don't ask much of you. Alice: My stockings cost more than your carpeting. 3) Anna: Stop lying. You've been caught. 4) Pete: Hell's bells, Trudy! That is final! 5) Roger: We can still come to work in our offices, only there will be diamonds on the doorknobs. 6) Tom, to Pete: If his wife's unhappy, his work suffers. Pete: Yes, well they seem very directly related in this case, don't they, Tom? 7) Betty: I didn't make you do anything. Sarah Beth: You're an awful woman, you know that? 8) Roger, to Alice: I'm sorry, I don't know whose eyes to look at. 9) Anna, to Don: It means the only thing keeping you from being happy is the belief that you are alone. 10) Pete (about Peggy's new office): How the hell did you swing this? Peggy: I'm sleeping with Don. It's really working out. |

- Mary Anne McGarry plays Alice Cooper, and she's recognizable from American Crime Story and The Young and the Restless. There is some discussion in the fandom about whether she is gay, since Bert asks after her companion - a paid travel partner would probably not have the luxury of acting moody with Alice.
