  Walker McCormick : Did it ever occur to you that this monkey might be throwing himself in front of your car?

  Curly Sue : Jig up, Bill.

  Walker McCormick : You are an educated woman in a position of responsibility in major law firm, making a tremendous living. What happened to you? What caused you to invite vagabonds into your home?

  Grey Ellison : I'm not stupid, I had my bedroom locked!

  Walker McCormick : Oh gee, then you were perfectly safe.

  Grey Ellison : Then, sleep on the couch, the guest rooms are taken.

  [Sue and Bill go back to bed Grey goes back to bed too, she is angry and annoyed she closes the door shut] 

• Curly Sue : How many people live here?

  Grey Ellison : Just me?

  Curly Sue : Whose clothes are all these?

  Grey Ellison : They're mine.

  Curly Sue : Then why is your bed so big?

  Grey Ellison : I like a big bed.

  Curly Sue : Got an awful lot of pillows for just one person.

  Grey Ellison : Well...

  Curly Sue : How come you've got so many televisions? I must have seen 3 already.

  Grey Ellison : [as she pulls out a black night shirt for Sue]  Hoe's this? It wont be the most beautiful outfit in the world, but I think it will do.

  Curly Sue : [as she smells the night shirt]  How come it smells so good?

  Grey Ellison : It's clean. Why don't you take the room next to mine? That will be your room for tonight. You try that on, and I'll come and say good night.

  Curly Sue : You are so nice, ma'am.

  Grey Ellison : My name is Grey.

  Curly Sue : Mrs. Grey?

  Grey Ellison : No, just Grey, and what's your name?

  Curly Sue : Curly Sue.

  Grey Ellison : I bet I know why they call you curly Sue, because you have all that curly hair.

  Curly Sue : No, that guy we were wintering with Tampa Joe Reilly, thought I look like that big oaf from the 3 stooges, he said it so much that it stuck. See you.

  [Sue goes in to the room on the right side of Greys and tries on the night shirt] 

• Curly Sue : How come you have no children? You have plenty of dough for lots of them.

  Grey Ellison : It would be hard for me to have children, because i'm not married.

  Curly Sue : Children don't come from weddings, you know, they come from right down...

  [points at her crotch] 

  Grey Ellison : Uh, no, I know, but the proper way to have a family is to get married, right?

  Curly Sue : Not unless, you have a baby first, I will have 7 babies, I'll name them Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Bill, after Bill.

  Grey Ellison : Give me one good reason why you call your father Bill?

  Curly Sue : If I'm in a crowed place, and yell "dad!" 50 guys turn around, but when I yell Bill maybe 2 turn around. It's a timesaver, really.

  Grey Ellison : Well, you better get some sleep. Good night.

  Curly Sue : Excuse me, where is the guy you were with yesterday?

  Grey Ellison : He had to work late.

  Curly Sue : Is he a cop?

  Grey Ellison : No. Good night.

  Curly Sue : Ma'am?

  Grey Ellison : Yes?

  Curly Sue : I bet he loves you a lot.

  Grey Ellison : I hope so. Good night.

  Curly Sue : Well, I know how you can tell.

  Grey Ellison : How?

  Curly Sue : He lets you eat first.

  Grey Ellison : Sweet dreams.
