- Tearoom Hostess: The students are supposed to keep their minds on their studies and you girls must remember, that we're only here to satisfy their appetite... for food.
- Ronald Brooke: Is this girl a friend of yours?
- Jenny Swanson: I wish she was.
- Ronald Brooke: Good heavens, why?
- Jenny Swanson: Maybe she could tell me how to do it.
- Ronald Brooke: Do what?
- Jenny Swanson: Go to Paris!
- Ronald Brooke: You know this instant reminds me of one of old Aesop's fables - the one about the wolf in sheep's clothing, of course. Only in this instance, the wolf turns out to be an exchange professor from England. Of course, I realize how disappointed you must be that I haven't a long white beard and that however much of an old fluff I may be, it isn't apparent to the naked eye. I hope. All you have to do is to pass a rather stiff examination at the end of the term. And before I hear too many groans, let me say that I'm going to begin the course by exploring the nightlife of Cytherea - a rather high-spirited wench of ancient times. As a matter of fact, so high spirited that students have been known to take up Greek just in order to read it in the original. Well, hip-hip, dash it all, shall we carry on?
- Ronald Brooke: What happened on that train?
- Jenny Swanson: Well, we got very friendly and I slept in his Drawing Room.
- Ronald Brooke: What?
- Jenny Swanson: Yeh, Tom had to double up to get in my berth but he said he didn't mind.
- Ronald Brooke: Jenny, have you lost your flutter?
- Jenny Swanson: Oh, no. I'm fluttering something awful right now.
- Olaf Brand: What do you think of the idea of your son marrying my granddaughter?
- Jeffers - Brand's Butler: Well, Miss Sylvia is a little wild, sir, but Dennis is the right man for her.
- Olaf Brand: That's all I wanted to know.
- Ronald Brooke: And, Jenny, keep away from young men with large cars and small characters. And don't accept things from them.
- Jenny Swanson: Nothing?
- Ronald Brooke: Well... . flowers, fruit, and candy.
- Jenny Swanson: And hospitality?
- Ronald Brooke: Only of the right sort, Jenny.
- Ronald Brooke: Jenny, why are you running?
- Jenny Swanson: [fleeing Paul Kingston] I always run before breakfast. It stimulates your heart, c'mon.
- [pulling him along]
- Ronald Brooke: Oh Jenny, don't you realize how empty a loveless marriage can be?
- Jenny Swanson: Yes, I do. That's why I told Tom I couldn't Marry him.
- Ronald Brooke: Good heavens, when I told you to steer clear of Tom, that wasn't a signal to go after every other male in sight.
- Olaf Brand: Oh, well, cheating in business, ha, ha, that's good. Where would you be in business if you didn't take advantage of the other fella?
- Ronald Brooke: Jenny, why did you have to pick on this family to blackmail?
- Jenny Swanson: Oh, but I didn't. It was an accident.
- Olaf Brand: This is insane.
- [to Jenny]
- Olaf Brand: You were out with Dennis. You're going to marry Tom. A... and Ronnie is in love with you.
- Caroline Brand: And Paul has just proposed to her.
- Olaf Brand: I've been having flutters all my life. Why else would I have three doctors?
- Jenny Swanson: You don't need a doctor for a flutter. That's just your conscience telling you what to do, and you don't pay any attention to it.
- Olaf Brand: Four men aren't enough. It had to be five. Jenny, weren't you at Briarmont with Sylvia? Were you a waitress?
- Ronald Brooke: That was a flutter, Jenny. That was your conscience talking.
- Jenny Swanson: Oh, does that mean I'll never be able to do anything wrong?
- Ronald Brooke: Not with your solar plexus. No Jenny, I'm afraid you're doomed to be a good girl.
- Ronald Brooke: Now look here, that's no answer. You started to say something.
- Jenny Swanson: Aesop says, "Wise men say nothing in dangerous times."
- Ronald Brooke: I suppose you didn't make yourself as pretty as possible last night. Why, you... you caught him like a rat in a trap.
- Jenny Swanson: Did I really look pretty?
- Ronald Brooke: You were wonderful. You looked radiant. You... you were positively starry-eyed. I tell you, I won't have it.
- Tearoom Hostess: And remember, you're waitresses, not entertainers. No unnecessary conversation with the students
- Jenny Swanson: I've got to leave town tonight. If I don't, they'll scramble eggs on the sidewalk. Mr. Dayton said so.
- Olaf Brand: What is it now?
- Tom Brand: I just had a notice from the bank. It seems I'm... overdrawn.
- Olaf Brand: How much?
- Tom Brand: Quite a bit - five thousand dollars.
- Olaf Brand: *How* in tarnation did you ever spend five thousand dollars?
- Tom Brand: Ohh, on some things.
- Olaf Brand: [yelling] Get out of my sight, you insolent young pup! Get out before I lose my temper. Five thousand dollars... when I was your age I was living on three dollars a week - used molasses instead of sugar in my coffee... get out!
- [throws book at Tom and it hits him as he makes for the door]
