Quotes 

• Frankie Edare : When I operate a place, everything's the best. You'll find that out.

  Dave Barrett : Not if I can help it.

• Dave Barrett : Miss Warren, what would you say the odds are of a car being stolen twice in one hour?

  Jessica Warren : I've never computed it.

• Nina Ferranti : My father's dead.

  Dave Barrett : Dead? Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

  Nina Ferranti : Sorry? An old man who loved his life? A gentle old man and you say you're sorry?

  Dave Barrett : I didn't do it. And I can prove it.

  Nina Ferranti : Oh, I'm sure you can. A big man like you with money and influence and important friends. But who is going to worry about Professor Ferranti? He had no influence, no friends, but the few students who loved him. But I... I won't forget. And you'll be punished for what you have done. I swear to it if it takes me the rest of my life!

• Jessica Warren : David?

  Dave Barrett : Yes?

  Jessica Warren : You're not going to turn me in, are you?

  Dave Barrett : No, you're going to turn yourself in.

• Dave Barrett : Jessica, you saved my life! Why?

  Jessica Warren : I must love you more than I thought.

• Jessica Warren : What are we going to do, David?

  Dave Barrett : Tell the police.

  Jessica Warren : No!

  Dave Barrett : Yes, Jessica.

  Jessica Warren : Is there no other way?

  Dave Barrett : No.

  Jessica Warren : You must hate me.

  Dave Barrett : That's not true.

  Jessica Warren : I lied to you, betrayed your confidence, and now I've fallen in love with you. It's too late.

  Dave Barrett : If only you'd told me sooner.

  Jessica Warren : I was afraid, David. Afraid you'd hate me.

  Dave Barrett : I don't hate you.

  Jessica Warren : You mean that?

  Dave Barrett : Yes.

  Jessica Warren : I know I don't deserve anything else. But to be left with nothing, to feel that even my love for you has meant something. Oh, David, I can't bare it. Can you forget the other things just for this evening and stay with me til... Oh, David, I'm so afraid...

  Dave Barrett : I'll stay, Jessica.

  Jessica Warren : Just as if we were two people in love who met in the ordinary way and had no problems at love.

  Dave Barrett : Just as if we were two people in love. Period.
