Quotes 

• Jenny Henderson : [talking about their son]  Well, you've been away on so many assignments this year, you and Davey... never talk anymore.

  Grif Henderson : When he was a kid we used to talk a lot. Used to make model airplanes together. Now all he wants to do is *sniff* the glue.

• Jenny Henderson : [after they've finished dinner in a restaurant]  I'll buy you dinner, dear.

  [takes money out, looks at the bill] 

  Jenny Henderson : Oh. The numbers all jumble together, heh. I think I had too much wine, heh.

  Grif Henderson : Well, I tell you what, *you* just hang on to me, sweetheart.

  [puts his arm around her] 

  Jenny Henderson : Ooo, uh, I'll be better when I'm in bed.

  Grif Henderson : You always are.

• The Purser : Loook, were you assigned here to "C" deck?

  Jenny Henderson : Yes, but my husband and I specifically requested a private compartment.

  The Purser : Heh-heh, that should have caused some tiny titters at the reservation office. "C" deck is for the student tours. On this deck there is no "private." Ya have to bunch up. You're bunching with Selkirk and Ott.

  Jenny Henderson : We have a reservation. Look, my husband works for SC magazine, and Mr. Wax was supposed to get us a special compartment. We want to be together.

  The Purser : On "C" there is no "together." "C" is for cheap, crowded, cramped, crummy.

  [starts to walk away] 

  Jenny Henderson : But I was...

  The Purser : Look, I'm *very* busy. I have enough troubles trying to keep these boys and girls apart. Whaddya wanna be together for anyway? *You're married.*

• Jenny Henderson : ...And then I wear *one* very normal bikini and you... Do you know what you are? You're a narrow-minded... prude!

  [sputters] 

  Grif Henderson : You wore it with another man!

  [Jenny makes a sound of disgust] 

  Grif Henderson : Even the Marquis de Sade had his limits.
