  Angela : I said I was a singer!

• Alexander Mundy : While you're singing, that will clear the house and give me a crack at the safe.

  Angela : You mean you won't be attending my recital?

  Alexander Mundy : Sweetheart, sing in the shower and I'll drop by. But I didn't come here to get cultured, I came here to get into a safe. Understand?

• Noah Bain : Al, you have your country's thanks.
