There is a p.s. [he turns the message over and pretends to read a p.s] "You better re-marry Lonny Borden. He adores you, he always has, cause he realizes that he isn't good enough for you but he'll do anything if you only take him back." It's true. Honest and a whole lot more!::Mary Evans: Then... than you didn't go to Hollywood just to take Jackie from me?::Lonny Borden: Well of course not dear. I came out to help if you needed it.::Mary Evans: Oh Lonny.::Lonny Borden: Let's have dinner together tonight, huh?

How about you forget your husband for a few minutes and we might be able to finish this scene and go home.::Lonny Borden: Oh, it too late for the theater now anyhow.::Maximillan 'Max' Carey: Or you stand the chance of seeing the last act.

Why don't you let me direct Miss Evans and you be... Mr. Evans.::Mary Evans: That'll be enough tonight Max. Come on Lonny!
