Susan Darell : Earlier I used to dress frivolously, now I dress to attract only one man.
Richard Aiken : Oh Yeah?
Susan Darell : That was truthful, but not honest.
Roger Berton : Double talk
Susan Darell : Not double talk. When a woman dresses to attract all men, it isn't honest but truthful. When she dresses to appeal to only one man, that's not truthful, but it's honest.
Roger Berton : Who is the man?
Susan Darell : What man?
Roger Berton : The man you are dressing honestly for, so that you would not be truthful.
