A scene from The Philadelphia Story 1940
Kidd

Your assignment will be Spy's most sensational achievement - Tracy Lord. Big game hunting in Africa, fox hunting in Pennsylvania. Married on impulse and divorced in a rage. And always unapproachable by the press. 'The Unapproachable Miss Lord.' 'The Philadelphia Story'...(quote) 'A Wedding Day Inside Mainline Society.'

Mike

Or: 'What the Kitchen Maid Saw Through the Keyhole.' (unquote)...(quote) 'No hunter of buckshot in the rear is Cagey Crafty Connor.' (unquote) (close paragraph)

Liz

Close job, close bank account. But Mr. Kidd, how can you possibly get inside the Lord estate, let alone the house?

Mike

Now we're not gonna do it, Liz, dawgonnit, it's degrading. It's undignified.

Liz

And so is an empty stomach. How do we get in?
