Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : I ain't used to havin' women servin' me breakfast. I guess there is somethin' to this marriage business after all. How long has this been going on?
Fay Duval : Since Adam and Eve.
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : You know, I can't figure it. I like the dames, but they don't go for me. I'm strictly a cold wire in that department.
Johnny Marshall : For every guy in this world, there's a dame. You just gotta wait.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Yeah, I'm waitin'. Only I want to whisper "I love you" with my own teeth!
-
Mrs. Calkin - Saleslady : The young lady will be right out. Do you like the longer dresses they're wearing this year?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Uh, it don't bother me none. I got a good memory.
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Johnny, what are you doing for supper tonight?
Johnny Marshall : Oh, nothing exciting.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Well, come on home with me.
Johnny Marshall : Nah, it's getting to be a habit.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : What's the matter? Don't you like the food?
Johnny Marshall : Oh sure, I like it. But if I show up at your house this week for another meal, Fay'll wind up calling the cops. And after all, you're practically still on your honeymoon.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : I'm only asking you for supper.
-
Johnny Marshall : [the phone rings] I'll get it. Oh, if it's that blonde, are you in or out?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Well if it's her, I'm in and ready to go out!
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : You know, I can't figure it. I like the dames, but they don't go for me. I'm strictly a cold wire in that department.

Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Well, I'll be right back, Baby. You know, dancin' with you is like walkin' on clouds.
Polly : That's what you think. Those were my feet!
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : I still can't understand why I had to throttle that dame to make her kiss me.
Johnny Marshall : It's the way you move in. You're with a dame two minutes and she wants to bat your brains out.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Well, I wouldn't say that. I know plenty of dames who went completely daffy over me.
Johnny Marshall : Oh, who are you kidding. Every time I've seen you up at bat, you strike out. But, you mug, even if the dames don't love you, I do.
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Yeah? What's that gonna get me?
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : You guys can needle me all you want. But, that dame tonight was really stacked up. And, furthermore, as soon as we finish that line-break, I'm going right back to that little mouse.
Eddie Adams : If she's waitin' for you, she must be one of the three blind mice.
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : How come I get a different nurse in here every time I ring?
Nurse Who Lost Draw : Well, for this room we always draw lots and this time I lost. What can I do for you?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : When do I get my next bath?
Nurse Who Lost Draw : You've had three already today!
-
Johnny Marshall : When is the doc checkin' you out?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Oh, in about a week. Yeah, but this leg will never be right. I got to settle down on the ground like a squirrel with the gout.
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Say, how does this dame stack up?
Johnny Marshall : Oh, just a dame.
-
Johnny Marshall : Why do you even waste your time with a dame like that?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Oh, she seems all right, Johnny. You didn't give her a chance. I feel sorry for the filly. I wonder how she's fixed for dough?
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : I bet you ain't gettin' rich in this flea bag.
Fay Duval : You're right. I don't get anything out of this joint, but tired.
-
FloorLady : Is there anything I can do for you gentlemen?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Well, yeah, I would like to buy a birthday present for a mouse.
FloorLady : A mouse?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : I mean, a dame.
FloorLady : Have you anything specific in mind? A purse, perfume, costume jewelry?
Jumbo Wells : Hey, Hank, how 'bout some underwear? Could we see some models?

Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : What's the difference between a robe and a negligee?

Jumbo Wells : Johnny, what about the underwear?
-
Fay Duval : What's going on? What is on your mind?
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Nothing. Say, does a guy have to have somthin' on his mind when he gives a dame a present?
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Hi ya, squirrels! What's cookin'?
Eddie Adams : Ah, some dame down in Santa Monica got a washing machine on the fritz.

Johnny Marshall : Why don't you try it on yourself?
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Hey, Benny! Get me a nice bottle of Sherry and wrap it up for a present, will ya?
Benny - Counterman : Grapes of Wrath in a sport jacket!
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : What a first class dope I was!
-
Hank 'Gimpy' McHenry : Every time I get tangled with a dame, I do the wrong thing.
-
Johnny Marshall : [the phone rings] I'll get it. Oh, if it's that blonde, are you in or out?
