J.D. Hanley : [on why Schatze stopped their wedding] There was a last minute decision in your favor.
Tom Brookman : Did you tell her about me?
J.D. Hanley : No. So far as she knows you're still hustling a gas pump.
Tom Brookman : Are you kidding?
J.D. Hanley : Well let's go ask her.
Tom Brookman : Wait a minute JD! Do you think I ought to tell her?
J.D. Hanley : Are you nuts? She clearly prefers gas pump jockeys to millionaires. What do you want to do? Disillusion the poor girl?

Schatze Page : Wait a minute I want to hear from Mr Filler-up. Just what would you estimate your fortune at?

Schatze Page : Might that all be in cash?
Tom Brookman : I suppose I could dig up a couple of million in cash if I had to.
Schatze Page : And what might the rest be in?
Tom Brookman : Some oil, some airline stock, a little steel, some cattle down in Texas, a couple of coal mines in Alabama, a bit of real estate here and there, some automobile stock, the Brookman building and of course Brookman Pennsylvania.
