Eunice

Howard! Howard Bannister! Howard, when I ask for you to wait for me somewhere I expect you to stay there until I come back.

Yes, Eunice.

Eunice

Now, it is difficult enough for me to have to see to all these arrangements myself...

Yes, Eunice.

Eunice

It is exactly 6:15. If we reach the hotel in half an hour, we'll have just enough time to get ready for the banquet.

Yes, Eunice.

Eunice
[to the airport attendant]

Put these things in a taxi.
Airport Attendant Yes, Eunice.

Eunice

Where have you been?

I had a little trouble in the drug store.

Steve, you didn't tell me you were married.

We're not married.

Congratulations.

Eunice

But we will be soon.

Condolences.

Eunice
[to Howard]

Who is this person?

I haven't the vaguest idea. She was behind a rock in the drug store.

Oh come on Steve, you can tell her about us.

Eunice

Why is she calling you that name?

Don't pay any attention to her, Eunice. [turning to Judy] Look, Miss Maxwell--

Eunice

You know her name.

Eunice, I swear this is a bizarre joke.

Sure, it's easy for you, everywhere you go, another heart broken--women, women, women. You call it joking. Eunice and I, we call it lust.

Eunice

Don't you know the meaning of propriety?

Propriety? Noun. Conformity to established standards of behavior or manners, suitability, rightness, or justice. See "etiquette."

Mr. Larrabee

They broke into my home.

Judge Maxwell

That's breaking and entering.

Mr. Larrabee

And they brought her with them forcibly.

Judge Maxwell

That's kidnapping.

Eunice

They tried to molest me.

Judge Maxwell

That's... unbelievable.
