Quotes 

• Captain : Say, what's a doll like you doin' in a joint like this?

  Maisie the Vamp : Well, I was married to a sailor - and two years ago he left me flat.

  Captain : Too bad.

  Maisie the Vamp : Yeah, too bad if I ever catch up with him!

• Drunken sailor : [salutes drunkenly]  Hi-ya, Captain!

  Captain : [sternly]  What's going on here?

  Maisie the Vamp : [suddenly looks closely at the drunk sailor]  Ohhhh --- my HUSband!

  Drunken sailor : [affably]  Dear ol' MAISIE!

  Maisie the Vamp : Don't "Maisie" ME!

  [wallops him with her furled umbrella, then pursues him across the deck] 

  Maisie the Vamp : I've waited for YOU all right!

  [lands another whack on the sailor's head] 

  Maisie the Vamp : I'll see that you PAY for running out on me!

  [furiously chases him off the ship, thus leaving the captain with even FEWER crew-members than he'd started with at the beginning of the movie]
