The Necklace (1981)

Pamela Bellwood: Claudia Blaisdel

Quotes 

• Larry Armstrong : You have excellent taste. He's a creep. A certifiable, bona fide, double-digit IQ, creep.

  Claudia Blaisdel : Yeah.

  Larry Armstrong : As a matter of fact, that guy is the sovereign state of Michigan's gift to creepdom. Now, on the other hand, eh, I'm generably regarded as fairly likeable, reasonably good looking, I'm a whiz at my job.

  Claudia Blaisdel : And very modest.

• Krystle Carrington : [Krystle meets Claudia while visiting an art gallery]  I'm beginning to appreciate new things. How wonderful to have that gift, that talent.

  Claudia Blaisdel : There are all kinds of talents, Mrs. Carrington. There's the talent of being beautiful, getting any man that you want to fall in love with you. There's a talent of getting what you want out of life. Now that's a true talent, isn't it? Sorry. I hope that doesn't sound like a strange question coming from someone with my background.

  Krystle Carrington : Your past is past, Claudia. It could happen to any of us.

  Claudia Blaisdel : Don't you be nice to me, because I'm not here to be nice to you. I'm not here by accident, either. I called your house to see where you were. You see, I think you and my husband slept together when I was in the hospital.

  Krystle Carrington : Have you asked Matthew about this?

  Claudia Blaisdel : I'm asking you.

  Krystle Carrington : That's very unfair, Claudia. Matthew's your husband. I'm nothing to you.

  Claudia Blaisdel : And Blake Carrington is your husband. What is it that you want? I mean, don't you already have enough?

• Claudia Blaisdel : I just don't want to feel hurt anymore. Am I wrong?

  Steven Carrington : No, you're not wrong. Wrong is when you hurt somebody. That's the only wrong I know.

• Dr. Jordan : [Discussing Matthew]  Have you talked about it with him? Given him a chance to at least defend himself?

  Claudia Blaisdel : No, I haven't. I don't have to, because in my heart, I know he loves her. Not me.

• [last lines] 

  Steven Carrington : Do you know how important this night is to me, Claudia? You see, I, uh, I've never really been with a woman before. And that's why I wonder...

  Claudia Blaisdel : You don't have to wonder, Steven. There's a beautiful gentleness about you, a tenderness that transcends gender. That's something you're never going to lose, no matter what happens after tonight.
