Helen Troy: Emma Snipe

Quotes 

• Emma Snipe : How much do you want to lose?

  Peter Trot : About 70 pounds.

  Emma Snipe : 70 pounds? Frankly, you take that much off and you'll be nothing but a blood vessel to keep your clothes warm.

• Emma Snipe : Uh, what's your name now?

  Peter Trot : Same as it always was, Peter Trot.

• Peter Trot : Well, I'll still do it. How much do you charge?

  Emma Snipe : Well, we charge by the pound. 50 cents a pound. You pay that much for good rump steak.

• Emma Snipe : How do you eat?

  Peter Trot : Like a horse.

  Emma Snipe : Well, frankly, you'll have to cut that out. From now on you'll sit up at the table just like anyone else.
