00:09 I'm the first decent man she's ever met
00:08 Isn't he a marvelous dentist
00:04 There's no such thing as a friendly kiss on the neck
00:09 You'll still have your wife and me
00:19 Isn't that the woman from the other night
00:05 It's all right if you like Horowitz
00:05 That tooth jockey
00:23 Would you slip in here for a moment please
00:06 I'd rather walk on hot coals
00:05 I told everyone you had to go to your dentist
00:06 Dr Winston my husband said that you were most anxious to...
00:57 I'm sorry Toni I know this is a shock for anyone
00:19 There is something else I'm going straight to the point
00:07 I'll call the registry and have them send another nurse
00:08 You want to play rough
00:12 You mean you spent the night with that hippie
00:07 My cactus It's blooming Never mind that
00:09 I had to lie on something
00:13 You know what I've done
00:07 They've lost me You go dance with her

00:13 What have you got there
00:37 Let me try to help you
00:18 What have you got there
00:10 You completely de feminize yourself
00:09 Would you excuse me please I'll go and powder my nose

00:06 Your hand I'm only human
00:11 Well what'll you have to drink
00:08 What about Se or Sanchez
00:06 Here's a woman who gave herself to you before you were...
00:20 She mentioned those chicken and egg salad sandwiches

00:37 I thought maybe you'd like to come out and have a drink...
00:10 One of these nights
00:15 Hup out No this is different darling
00:14 No Toni Everything's going to be all right
00:06 I just wanted to make sure you weren't playing any more...
00:27 Excuse me Sergeant Miss Dickinson
00:20 I understand we've been very naughty
00:09 That's not the old Julian Winston I knew in the old...
00:06 Miss Andrews is on the phone
00:07 You know what I've done Created a monster
00:59 We met one year ago at Stereo Heaven That's the record...
00:05 At first I thought it was going to be a gay carefree fling
00:09 Is that that dirty rat
00:08 It's just not practical to keep one in the city
00:04 No one needs a reason to hate Harvey
00:05 Don't try to fool me Doc I have a very good nose for...
00:08 You look different when you're all dressed up
00:10 Everything you told me about your wife was true
00:06 What happened out there on my mink stole
00:11 If you work for the CIA
00:11 I feel insulted
00:04 You're getting as prickly as your damn cactus
00:08 Are you asking me to go out
00:05 Will you give Tarzan here his electric razor
00:05 Don't you know any girls with straight teeth
00:06 That's such a big dirty rotten filthy lie it has class
00:05 Let me put it to you this way
00:04 It's like waltzing in wet cement
00:08 You ought to know what I know I know what I know She's...
00:08 Why don't you come out and ask me if I went to bed with...
00:11 You were the one who said that I was discouraging men
00:07 Let's not get neurotic about age
00:05 Toni you're a kook But a nice kook
00:20 You are a most attractive woman
00:18 She really turns me off
00:08 I wrote Julian telling him what I was going to do
00:05 I really blew it
00:08 Why did you choose this place
00:07 Toni Julian is marrying you A lot of girls would leap at...
00:07 Why don't you go back and mind your own business
00:22 I went to the police station
00:15 I'm having a rough time
