Miss Beryl

Mr. Sullivan, you're wearing a necktie. Are you in trouble with the law again?

Miss Beryl

Do you still bet on that horse race of yours?

Sully

What, the trifecta?

Miss Beryl

Yes. Has it ever come in?

Sully

Not yet.

Miss Beryl

But you still bet on it.

Sully

Well, sure. I mean, the odds have gotta kick in sooner or later.

Miss Beryl

Fine. That's exactly the way I feel about you.

Miss Beryl

Doesn't it bother you that you haven't done more with the life God gave you?

Sully

Not often. Now and then.

Miss Beryl
[running joke]

Can I interest you in a cup of tea?

Sully

No. Not now. Not ever.

Sully
[about Miss Beryl's paying Sully's back taxes on his family house]

There's a rumor going around that you did a good deed. You stuck your nose where it didn't belong.

Miss Beryl

I know it. I'm an old woman, though. I'm entitled.

Sully

Well, you're forgiven.
