Loretta : [playing checkers] You're really fun! You certainly aren't dull like all those princes.
The Soldier : Maybe that's because I'm not a prince.
Loretta : Do you think I'm pretty?
The Soldier : Do I think you're pretty? I think you're very pretty.
Loretta : Would you pick me to marry?
The Soldier : I might. Except I'm a little bit older than you and I think that maybe you should be with some young, handsome man, someone who can keep up with you.
Loretta : I should?
The Soldier : Definitely.
[places checker piece down]
The Soldier : King me.

The Soldier : You know, most women your age are already married.
Jeanetta : I take that as a compliment, soldier. My father has been trying to marry me off for years, but I am not marrying kind.
The Soldier : Oh really? I would have thought otherwise.
Jeanetta : No. I have no patience for hearts and flowers and young men who brag about this victory and that. There's more to life than romance.

The Soldier : Eh, this cloak is a dud... God king Wenceslas, where's my arm? My arm is gone!

The Soldier : Oh, hello.
Jeanetta : Hello.
The Soldier : And to what do I owe the honour of this visit, hmmm?
Jeanetta : Well my sisters and I thought you might like some cookies and milk before retiring.
The Soldier : Cookies and Milk? Oh, my favorite. Is that your father over there?
