Quotes
-
Mrs. Schuyler : [to a sleeping Rome on the sofa] Mr Rome. Are we alone?
Tony : [Rome awakes and looks around] Yeah. Why, what did you have in mind?
Mrs. Schuyler : I'm Mrs. Schuyler. I want to hire you.
Tony : Well, I'm afraid not. You see I'm tied up on a case this week. Maybe next week.
Mrs. Schuyler : Well that will be too late. My pussycat will be dead by then.
Tony : [with a bewildered look] Your pussycat?
Mrs. Schuyler : Someone's trying to poison her.
Tony : Oh. Well, how do you know?
Mrs. Schuyler : From her attitude. She's nervous, she's terrified.
Tony : Well, you can't bank too much on the attitude of a pussycat.
Mrs. Schuyler : Well my pussy used to be so sunny and full of fun, with the sweetest smile.
Tony : You got a pussy that smiles?
Mrs. Schuyler : No, that's just the point. She's frowning now. She knows. I tell you she knows.
Tony : Well, I'm afraid I can't help you, Mrs. Schuyler.
Mrs. Schuyler : But, you could at least meet my pussy.
Tony : No, no, no. It's not possible. I can't meet your pussy. Why don't you try the Brines Agency - they specialize in pussy that won't smile.
Mrs. Schuyler : Oh. Oh, well, thank you, Mr Rome. Thank you.
