Peter Weston : This chap you're engaged to, does he live in London?
Moira O'Shannon : No, he's in South America with the headhunters. But, he's coming back to take me out there with him.
Peter Weston : You mean you're going to live with the headhunters?
Moira O'Shannon : Well, what's wrong with that?
Peter Weston : Oh, just about everything. You might lose your head - and it's a very pretty head. And I'm beginning to wonder if there's anything in it.
Moira O'Shannon : Well, thank you.
-
Peter Weston : I like to observe certain normal conventions and taking alligators for walks doesn't happen to be one.
-
Peter Weston : I can give Daisy to you!
Moira O'Shannon : No thank you. I have plenty of pets. I've got four guinea pigs, two toucans and a dog. Daisy would eat the lot.
-
Moira O'Shannon : [after their first kiss] Oh, you shouldn't have done that.
Peter Weston : Why not?
Moira O'Shannon : Well, because I've just had a letter from Albert. And whenever I get a letter from Albert I always feel nun-like for at least three days.
-
Peter Weston : Hey, what's up?
Moira O'Shannon : Daisy needs a swim.
Peter Weston : I dare say she does. I want a large whiskey and soda, but, I'm not going to get one.
-
Moira O'Shannon : So, you've done it. You've really done it.
Peter Weston : Yes, I've given Daisy her freedom.
Moira O'Shannon : You mean you've left her to starve or to be run over or to be carved up into hand bags!
Peter Weston : Steady on.
-
Vanessa Colebrook : Who is that girl?
Peter Weston : Well, she's a friend of a friend of mine. I've only met her a couple of times. Mad about jazz and all that.
-
Peter Weston : Come on, Daisy. We'll get cracking.
-
Peter Weston : Oh, Daisy. This is very, very naughty!
-
Peter Weston : What are you thinking about?
Vanessa Colebrook : The one thing a woman hates to think about: another woman.
-
Albert O'Shannon : Tricky thing with alligators. You've got to - more or less - charm them.
Peter Weston : Don't do anything out of character on my account.
