Bob Stuart : Well, uh, you see, she had amnesia when I met her. What's more, it recurred, you know, kept happening on and off. Why once I came home late at night. I got into bed, kissed her and she gave me a friendly smile and then said, "Who are you?" It was the friendly smile that burned me up.
-
Snodgrass : If you can bring back the dead, Stuart, you can certainly get back your job.
Bob Stuart : I'll hold you to that, Mr. Snodgrass.
-
Bob Stuart : I couldn't hate you, darling. Unless you turned out to be a... female impersonator. And I'll bet you my bottom dollar you're not.
-
Bob Stuart : You're not a basket weaver, you're a soda squirt!
Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : Don't you call me a "squirt"!
-
Claudius Swade - Owner of Motel : Are we having trouble with our car, folks?
Bob Stuart : Yes... Is there any place around here I can get this thing fixed?
Claudius Swade - Owner of Motel : Well, there's an all-night garage...
Bob Stuart : [with a hopeful expression] There is?
Claudius Swade - Owner of Motel : Yep. But it closed at 12:00.
-
Claudius Swade - Owner of Motel : Wait! Come back! You can have the room tonight.
Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : Oh, that's wonderful!
Bob Stuart : But... we haven't any money!
Claudius Swade - Owner of Motel : Aw, forget it! I'll charge a little to building maintenance. A little to overhead, the rest to Mr. Popper, in bungalow 5.

Bob Stuart : Just one more thing: you're Carole Burden, all right. You're not Peggy Evans.
Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : How do you know?
Bob Stuart : Because Peggy Evans was a whining little coward afraid to face life. She was hysterical and selfish. You are the finest, the bravest girl there ever was. You were willing to accept me - a complete stranger - as your husband. You left your home, and your father, to come with me because you thought it was right. You're the most wonderful girl I ever knew.
Bob Stuart : That's all.

Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : Oh, Johnny...
Bob Stuart : The name is "Bob," Carol.
Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : The name is "Peggy," Johnny.
Bob Stuart : Maybe we'd better just call each other Mister and Missus.
Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : Maybe talking at all is... just a waste of time.
[they commence to kiss]

Peggy Evans aka Carol Burden : But you're going to teach me, aren't you?
Bob Stuart : Everything I know is at your disposal.
