There's no place like home.
Oh, these shoes are all wrong.
Much too frivolous for the occasion.
I apologize, Mr. Hayward.
Oh, god. I drank far too much claret last night.
Gives me headaches.
Burgundy suits me so much better.
- Perhaps you should take an aspirin. - Aspirin?

You're cute.
Wait till you have three children.
So... You're an actress?
Clearly, you've never set foot in a theater,
otherwise you'd know my work.
I must admit I'm more of a cinema enthusiast.

Never cared much for the movies myself.
Although, I do have a superb script.

Ruth Ellis shot her lover, not her husband.
Well, either way, she was hanged for it.
And rightly so.
Are you saying you'd like to see Brenda Leonides hanged?
You are twisting my words.
