What is your nationality?
I'm a drunkard.
And that makes Rick a citizen of the world.
I was born in New York City if that'll help you any.
I understand that you came here from Paris at the time of the occupation.
Well, there seems to be no secret about that.
Are you one of those people who cannot imagine the Germans in their beloved Paris?
Not particularly my beloved Paris.
Can you imagine us in London?
When you get there, ask me.
Diplomatist.
Well, how about New York?
Well, there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn't advise you to try to invade.
Uh, huh. Who do you think will win the war?
I haven't the slightest idea.
Rick is completely neutral about everything. And that takes in the field of women, too.
You weren't always so carefully neutral. We have a complete dossier on you. [reading] "Richard Blaine, American, age 37, cannot return to his country - the reason is a little vague." We also know what you did in Paris, Mr. Blaine, and also we know why you left Paris. Don't worry, we are not going to broadcast it.
