Sterling Script Lines - S3: Episode 8
1) Pete, about Hildy: Why is it that a man on his own is an object of pity, when she's the one you should really feel sorry for?
2) Henry, to Betty: I think you'll find that I put my heart into things when something's important to me. Or someone. 3) Pete, in Bonwit Teller: Let me speak to the manager. Customer Service Woman: Of the entire store? Pete: Of the Republic of Dresses! Whoever can help me with this, because you're falling short. 4) Don, to Betty, in front of the Italian men: I'm only in Rome for one night. I won't have my heart broken. 5) Don, to Conrad Hilton: Connie, this is my wife, Betty. Conrad: By golly, you are an indecently lucky man. 6) Mr. Lawrence, to Pete: I've had four quiet months, Mr. Campbell. Do you realize how hard it is to find someone my wife can get along with? 7) Betty, to Sally: Have You're going to have a lot of first kisses. You're going to want it to be special, so you remember. 8) Pete, to Trudy: Kinsey invented some contraption that can shoot a water balloon across the office. We filled it with ketchup. |
