- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: You know, I could tell you things about Daddy that would make your hair stand on end.
- Lucy Hinder: Tell me.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: No, kid. You're so far out that it might make you like him.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: Well, sorry you can't stay longer.
- Lucy Hinder: Can't a girl just drop in and say goodbye?
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: Bye.
- Lucy Hinder: Or auf Wiedersehen
- [kisses him]
- Lucy Hinder: or au revoir
- [kisses him again]
- Lucy Hinder: or arrivederci
- [kisses him again]
- Lucy Hinder: .
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: How many languages do you know?
- Sam Hinder: [Walking in on his daughter with Ballinger] You're as low as they come.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: Hmm hmm.
- Sam Hinder: Trying to get at me through this child.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: [unintelligible]
- Sam Hinder: You're an animal. A gutter rat.
- Lucy Hinder: Gutter rat? Poor Lieutenant Ballinger is more the frightened mouse.
- [Sam slaps her]
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: Heredity's a wonderful thing, huh, Sam? Now look, you and I aren't going to tangle over this child. We got bigger things to fight over.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: [Awakened by ringing phone] Hello. Oh, will you please go away?
- Lucy Hinder: Don't hang up. I'm at Daddy's apartment at the hotel, and you'd be very foolish not to come over here right away.
- Detective Lt. Frank Ballinger: O.K., I'll be foolish. Bye.
