Well you son-of-a-sea-snake! Have you got on my new pajamas?
[Sally hesitates guiltily] Lillian 'Lil': Yeah, well you shake right out of 'em, Hortence. Sally: [annoyed] Alright! Lillian 'Lil': I'm too important these days to sleep informally. [removes her blouse] Lillian 'Lil': What if there'd be a fire? Sally: You'd have to cover up to keep from being recognized. [camera pans down to Lil's legs as Sally hands her the silk pajama pants] Lillian 'Lil': [climbing into the pajamas] Say love, let's have a little more respect from you, now that I belong to one of the fine old families... Sally: Oh, yeah? If I were you I'd go a little bit slow. Lillian 'Lil': Whaddyou mean by that? Sally: Well, Bill Legendre and his wife might get together and decide that you were merely a strange interlude. Lillian 'Lil': Strange interlude, nothing! When I kiss 'em, they stay kissed for a long time. Sally: Well, see you don't get left holdin' the bag, sweetheart, full of nothin' but air. You better hang on to that bootlegger of yours. Lillian 'Lil': [incredulous] What? Go on with Al after Bill Legendre? Oh no, I've started on the upgrade, and whatever happens, baby, I'm in the big leagues now.
