Margo:
I distinctly remember, Addison, crossing you off of my guest list. What are you doing here? Addison DeWitt:
Dear Margo, you were an unforgettable Peter Pan. You must play it again, soon. You remember Miss Casswell. Margo:
I do not. How do you do? Miss Casswell:
We've never met. Maybe that's why? Addison DeWitt:
Miss Casswell is an actress, a graduate of the Copacabana school of the dramatic arts. [Eve enters] Addison DeWitt:
Ah, Eve. Eve:
Good evening, Mr. DeWitt. Margo:
I'd no idea you two knew each other. Addison DeWitt:
This must be at long last our formal introduction. Until now, we've only met in passing. Miss Casswell:
That's how you met me... in passing. Margo:
Eve, this is an old friend of Mr. DeWitt's mother. Miss Casswell, Miss Harrington. Eve:
Miss Casswell. Miss Casswell:
How do you do? Margo:
Addison, I've been waiting for you to meet Eve for the longest time. Addison DeWitt:
It could only have been your natural timidity that kept you from mentioning it. Margo:
You've heard of her great interest in the theater. Addison DeWitt:
We have that in common. Margo:
Then you two must have a long talk. Eve:
I'm afraid Mr. DeWitt would find me boring before too long. Miss Casswell:
You won't bore him, honey. You won't even get a chance to talk. Addison DeWitt:
Claudia, come here. [takes her aside] Addison DeWitt:
You see that man, that's Max Fabian, the producer. Now, go do yourself some good. Miss Casswell:
Why do they always look like unhappy rabbits? Addison DeWitt:
Because that's what they are. [taking her coat] Addison DeWitt:
Now, go and make him happy. [goes back to Margo and drapes the coat over her arm] Addison DeWitt:
Now, don't worry about your little charge, she'll be in safe hands. [walks off with Eve] Margo:
[watches them go, then lifts her martini]
Ah-men
