Quotes 

• Arlene Iverson : Caught me in my bath.

  Harry Moseby : I'm sorry.

  Arlene Iverson : [seductively]  Oh, that's all right. You could've joined me. It's a big bath.

  Harry Moseby : [with a wry grin]  Maybe some other time, when I'm feeling really dirty.

• Arlene Iverson : Are you the kind of detective who, once you get on a case nothing can get you off it? Bribes, beatings, the allure of a woman...

  Harry Moseby : That was true in the old days. Before we had a union.

• Arlene Iverson : [shows Harry a picture]  This is my second husband, Tom lverson, the bum. The only thing I got out of him was a new name. That's *ahfter* I quit acting. Did you ever see me in anything?

  Harry Moseby : [Harry draws a blank face, chuckles and shakes his head] 

  Arlene Iverson : I was never "big," not really big. There were a lot like me. You know, studio premieres, studio romances, not much talent. But I got lucky and grabbed off one of the big guns, Irving Grastner.

  Arlene Iverson : Oh, I had lovely tits... even if I do say so myself.

  Arlene Iverson : [sighs]  Ahh, they're sitting on a little bit of silicone now... but when they were up for grabs, they were really something special.

• Harry Moseby : [speculating that the missing daughter, Delly, may be in Florida with her stepfather]  My guess is that I should go down there.

  Arlene Iverson : [melodramatically]  You're gonna' go *all the way to Florida* on a guess?

  Harry Moseby : No. I'm gonna' *fly* all the way to Florida on *your* money, Mrs. Iverson. It's up to you.

  Arlene Iverson : [indifferently]  Go ahead.

• Arlene Iverson : [as Harry confronts her at her poolside, after Delly's death]  So I'm not grief-stricken. What does that make me?

  Arlene Iverson : [drunkenly]  You know, Delly isn't the only kid who ever had it rough.

  Arlene Iverson : [sighs]  When I was her age... I was down on my knees to half the men in this town.

  Arlene Iverson : [continues, as Harry looks at her contemptuously]  I'm sorry the poor little bitch is dead. And when the time comes, I'll cry for her... but you won't be around to see it, Mr. Smart-Ass-Moseby. So... Out... OUT!

  [drunkenly waves him away]
