Hildy Johnson:
Well, you wouldn't take me if I hadn't been doll-faced.
Walter Burns:
Well, why should I? I thought it would be a novelty to have a face around here a man could look at without shuddering.

00:00:01.496 --> 00:00:04.556
Work for somebody else!
That's the gratitude I get.
00:00:04.766 --> 00:00:05.079
Stop hamming.
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:10.096
Five years ago, you were a college girl.
I took a doll-faced hick!
00:00:10.304 --> 00:00:11.862
You wouldn't have
if I wasn't doll-faced.
00:00:12.073 --> 00:00:15.474
It was a novelty to have a face
to look at without shuddering.
00:00:15.676 --> 00:00:19.237
I made you a great reporter.
You won't be as good on any other paper.
00:00:19.447 --> 00:00:22.028
We're a team.
The paper needs both of us!
00:00:22.483 --> 00:00:23.095
Sold American!
00:00:24.152 --> 00:00:26.814
- All right, go ahead.
- Listen, Walter, please.
00:00:27.001 --> 00:00:30.457
The paper's going to have to get along
without me. So will you.
00:00:30.658 --> 00:00:31.818
It didn't work out.
00:00:32.003 --> 00:00:35.985
It would have worked if you'd been
satisfied as editor and reporter.
00:00:36.197 --> 00:00:38.256
You had to marry me
and spoil everything.
00:00:38.466 --> 00:00:41.629
I wasn't satisfied?
I suppose I proposed to you!
00:00:41.869 --> 00:00:44.599
Practically!
Making eyes at me until I broke down.
00:00:44.806 --> 00:00:48.242
"Oh, Walter!"
I was tight when I proposed to you.
00:00:48.442 --> 00:00:51.206
If you'd been a gentleman,
you'd have forgotten about it.
00:00:51.412 --> 00:00:53.812
You used to pitch better than that.
00:00:54.001 --> 00:00:55.983
Hello. What?
00:00:56.184 --> 00:00:58.175
Sweeney? What can I do for you?
00:00:58.386 --> 00:01:01.015
What? Wait a minute.
I'm not Sweeney. I'm Duffy.
00:01:01.389 --> 00:01:04.324
Sweeney, you can't do that to me.
Not today, of all days!
