John Geste : Well, isn't anybody going to say a word?
Michael 'Beau' Geste : You young pup, we're both so disgusted with you we're speechless.
John Geste : I'm no worse than either of you.
Digby Geste : There's something in what he says.
Michael 'Beau' Geste : I insist I'm worse than he is. He didn't steal the Blue Water.
John Geste : Neither did you.
Digby Geste : No. As a matter of fact, I've got it.
Michael 'Beau' Geste : I'll be frank with you, gentlemen. I've got it. I intend to sell it for 30,000 pounds sometime in the future, and live a life of ease in Paris surrounded by whiskey, ladies, and laughter.
Digby Geste : Well that's funny. I'm going to sell it and go to Paris, too. Only I don't' want any laughter.
Michael 'Beau' Geste : One thing I counted on was my younger brother leading an upright life while I spent my ill-gotten gains.
Digby Geste : Yes, I was counting on him, too.
John Geste : If you don't mind my saying so, the great sapphire is in my possession. And as soon as I can arrange to sell it, I'm going to the South Seas, buy a plantation, and start trading in copra.
Digby Geste : He puts us both to shame, doesn't he, Beau?
Michael 'Beau' Geste : Let's put him to death and keep his share.
