Gloria
[to Don, seeing him back in the bar]

Happy to have you back with the organization.

Gloria
[to Don]

Save your saliva. I've had enough of you...What do you think I am? I break a business date. I buy me an evening purse, a facial, and new hairdo, and maybe you can do that to your ritzy friends, but you can't to me, understand? ...I waited half the night like it was the first date I ever had. The other half I was crying. ...You do like me a little, don't ya, honey?

Shall we dance?

You're awfully pretty, Mr. Birnam.

I'll bet you tell that to all the boys.

Why natch! Only with you, it's on the level.

A fella called me up about him. Wants me to show him the town.

Like Grant's Tomb, for instance?

But death.

Ain't it amazin' how many guys come down from Albany just to see Grant's Tomb?

Gloria
[To Don]

Sometimes I wish you came from Albany.

Don

Yeah? Where would you take me?

Lots of places. The Music Hall, then The New Yorker roof, maybe.

Don

There is now being presented in the theatre on Forty-Fourth Street the uncut version of Hamlet. Now I see us as heading out for that. Do you know Hamlet?

I know Forty-Fourth Street.

Don

I'd like to get your interpretation of Hamlet's character.

Gloria

I'd like to give it to you.
