Quotes
-
Gerald : D'you want the strippers on the right or the left?
'Colonel' Harrington : I hardly need them, Gerald. I can take this boy with a deck of visiting cards.
-
'Colonel' Harrington : I don't think you realize the beauty of your situation. You're holding a royal flush.
Gerald : You've got him right by the ears.
'Colonel' Harrington : You know, I had nothing to do with this arrangement. But now that you're in it, you might as well go...
-
'Colonel' Harrington : Greetings, my little minx. I hope I find you well and that your little pal hasn't fallen overboard.
Gerald : With our $600.
-
Jean : I think Charles is in love with me.
Gerald : No?
Jean : Yes.
'Colonel' Harrington : Of course he's in love with you. Who is he not to be in love with you who have beautified the North Atlantic?
-
Jean : I think he's going to ask me to marry him.
'Colonel' Harrington : No?
Gerald : No?
Jean : Yes.
Gerald : That's wonderful, Jean.
'Colonel' Harrington : No wonder you're blushing.
Jean : Heh.
'Colonel' Harrington : And that fortunate young man.
Gerald : Fortunate indeed.
'Colonel' Harrington : Can't you hear his pulse pounding? His ears must be ringing like telephone bells.
Gerald : His hands are clammy with excitement.
'Colonel' Harrington : He won't know an ace from a deuce.
Jean : You weren't thinking of taking him, Harry?
'Colonel' Harrington : Well, what were you thinking of?
-
'Colonel' Harrington : Very depressing having your own daughter married, and not be there.
Gerald : Especially under an assumed name. Is that legal?
'Colonel' Harrington : Seems to be. Women change their names so much anyway; it doesn't seem to matter.
