• Mrs. Early : Do you like hotcakes?

  Janet Blake : Yes, I love them.

  Mrs. Early : So do I. I make them with butterscotch.

  Janet Blake : Butterscotch?

  Mrs. Early : Quarter pound of butter, three jiggers of scotch. Keeps you healthy and happy.

• Preston Mitchell : [seeing that Mrs. Early has a drink]  What's that?

  Mrs. Early : This is my own invention for hot nights, I call it a Foreign Legion.

  Preston Mitchell : Why?

  Mrs. Early : Helps me forget.

  Preston Mitchell : What's in it?

  Mrs. Early : One part Dubonnet, one part sherry, three jiggers of gin, a dash of bitters, a slice of orange and a cup of sand.

  Preston Mitchell : Mm. Why the orange?

  Mrs. Early : There wasn't any lemon.

  Preston Mitchell : Oh, I see.

  Mrs. Early : If you're not going to read that play why don't you go to the dance?

  Preston Mitchell : And miss what's going to happen to you, after you kill off the Foreign Legion? I'd never forgive myself.
