Niki Trumbo:
We're having birthday cake. Dalton Trumbo:
When you hear me working, You don't knock. Niki Trumbo:
But it's my birthday. Dalton Trumbo:
You don't knock. Ever. Niki Trumbo:
So the house is on fire, you don't wanna know? Dalton Trumbo:
I work in a bathtub, surrounded by water. So I'm fairly certain that even if the whole goddamn country was on fire, that I can still function as this family's personal slave. And all I ask is not to be interrupted for every little slice of fucking birthday cake. What? It's ridiculous!
