[on the phone pretending to be Rex]

Am I gonna see you tonight?

Jan

I'd love to Rex, but I already have a date.

Who with?

Jan

A client. You don't know him. Jonathan Forbes.

Of course, you're not the kind of girl who would break a date.

Jan

No I'm not.

And I ain't the kinda guy who'd ask you to.

Jan

I know you're not.

I'll pick you up at 8.

Jan

I'll be ready.

Look, I don't know what's bothering you, but don't take your bedroom problems out on me.

Jan

I have no bedroom problems. There's nothing in my bedroom that bothers me.

Oh-h-h-h. That's too bad.

Why don't you take her over for the rest of the evening?

Jonathan

Me?

Yeah! Take her dancing maybe. She's dying to learn how to dance.

Jonathan

Wait wait. She doesn't know how to dance?

Well naturally, she doesn't get out of the house very often.

Jonathan

What do you mean, "naturally"?

Jonathan, believe me, you and Moose - I mean Miss Taggett will get along...

Jonathan

"Moose"?

So what the girl picks up a nickname? You know, how cruel kids can be. Especially, when someone is a little different.

Jonathan

Different? How different?

Well... You know. [hesitatingly points to face] Just different.

Jonathan
[Pointing to a fat lady sitting at a table]

That couldn't be her, could it?

How can you tell?

[waves at the lady, who waves back]

See, she's so friendly. C'mon.

Jonathan

Oh no! Its your moose. Happy Hunting!

[Jonathan leaves]

Yes, indeed.

Jan
[about living alone]

Well, what am I missing?

If you have to ask, you're missing it!

Jan

Officer, arrest this man - he's taking me up to his apartment!

Police Officer

Well, I can't say that I blame him, miss.

Jonathan

Brad, she is the sweetest, she is the loveliest, she is the most talented woman I have ever met.

That's what you said when you married that stripper.

Jonathan

She wasn't a stripper. She was an exotic dancer... with trained doves.

Jan
[Jan and Brad are on the phone discussing a phone schedule]

We'll just have to try living with each other...

[Jan pauses, waiting for a response]

Well?

Jan

I was waiting for you to make some off-color remark.

Miss Morrow, is that all you have on your mind?

Jan

Never mind my mind! You just stick to your half-hour and I'll stick to mine!

At least my problems can be solved in one bedroom. You couldn't solve yours in a thousand!

Can you believe that? They sent a woman. That's like sending a marshmallow to put out a bonfire.

If there's anything worse than a woman living alone, it's a woman saying she likes it.

Mr. Allen, this may come as a surprise to you, but there are some men who don't end every sentence with a proposition.

Why did I spend a fortune having this apartment done over? Why did I cut myself off from every girl I know? Why does any man destroy himself? Because he thinks he's getting married!
