Lost Horizon • 1937

Barnard: I beg your pardon, brother. What did you say you were hunting?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Fossils.
Barnard: Fossils, huh?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: I'm a paleontologist.
Barnard: A what?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: A paleontologist.
Barnard: Ohhh... I see.
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: I have here a discovery that will startle the world. It's the vertebra from the lumbar of a Megatherium, found in Asia.
Barnard: Well, what do you know about that?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Found in Asia. When I get home, I shall probably be knighted for it.
Barnard: Knighted! You don't say! Do you mind if I take a look at it?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Oh, not at all... This is the only thing I was able to save when those heathens surrounded me.
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: [takes out a large vertebra bone from a specimen box] You see, from this vertebra, I shall be able to reconstruct the entire skeleton...
Barnard: [interrupting, slightly incredulous] Wait a minute. You expect to be knighted for finding that soup bone?
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: [slightly offended] This is the vertebra of a Megatherium found in Asia.
Barnard: Yeah, I remember. You said that before.
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Sir Henry Derwent was knighted. He never got beyond the Mesozoic era.
Barnard: [sarcastic] Aww, poor fellow!
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Yes, it just shows... I don't know why I'm talking to you. I don't know you. Who are you?
Barnard: Okay, brother.
Alexander P. 'Lovey' Lovett: Don't call me "brother."
Barnard: [chuckles] Okay, sister... No offence. No offence
