Dialogue[edit]

Fred Ayres: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. This is really good news. Rog has outdone himself.
Honey Hale: I'll bet he's broken both legs running after two women at the same time.
Fred Ayres: Well, I usually fly with you, don't I? Or, am I just a fly in the carburetor?

Fred Ayres: Well, I usually fly with you, don't I? Or, am I just a fly in the carburetor?
Roger Bond: Oh, well, I tell you, Freddy, old man, you see, it's this way: I met a friend, a very old friend who asked me as a very special favor, you know how it is, so, you'll have to fly down with the boys. You don't mind, do ya? See that they all have a dill pickle with their box lunch.

Yankee Clipper Banjo Player: Well, Roger's done it again.
Eddie - Yankee Clipper: Yeah and just as I was gettin' caught up in my alimony too.
Honey Hale: That Sir Galahad has gotten us kicked out of every job from Maine to Miami! I wonder where we go from here?

Belinha De Rezende: You know I'd never do anything to hurt Julio. Don't you? But, darling, may I have just a little fun, before I settle down and starting having those thousands of children?
Dona Elena De Rezende: Belinha!
