Mike ConnorMr Kittredge, it may interest you to know that our so-called affair consisted of exactly two kisses and one rather late swim both of which I thoroughly enjoyed and the memory of which I wouldn't part with for anything. After which I returned here, carried her to her room, deposited her on her bed and promptly returned here which you will no doubt remember.
Tracy Lord[opens the door to address the guests]Good morning.
[to the organist]
Tracy LordWill you stop that racket? Good morning. I'm afraid there's been a slight hitch. My fiancé that was... that is... he's decided we should call it a day and I quite agree with him and... oh Dexter, help me please?

Tracy LordTwo years ago I did you out of a wedding in this house by eloping to Maryland.
C. K. Dexter-Haven"But I hope to make it up to you now by going through with it as originally planned."
Tracy LordBut I hope to make it up to you now by...
[looks at Dexter, he nods and smiles]
Tracy Lordby going through with it as originally and most beautifully planned.
Tracy LordWith your background and taste and intelligence you could have become a serious composer, or a diplomat or anything you wanted to be. And what have you become? A jukebox hero?
Mike Connor[singing]I don't care if you are called, "The Fair Miss Frigidaire", 'Cause you're sensational, Making love is quite an art, What you require, Is the proper squire, To fire your heart, And if you say, That one fine day, You'll let me come to call, We'll have a ball...
Liz ImbrieYou know, that's the second time in the last 24 hours that a man has said that to me. I guess I must be getting either booky, hippy, or toothy.

C. K. Dexter-Haven[singing]You take some skins, Jazz begins, Then you take a bass, Man, now we're, Getting someplace, Take a box, One that rocks, Take a blue horn, New Orleans born, You take a stick, With a lick, Take a bone, Ho ho, hold the phone, Take a spot, Cool and hot, Now you has jazz, jazz, Jazz, jazz, jazz...
Louis Armstrong[singing]Just dig that scenery floating by, We're now approaching Newport, Rhode I, We've been, for years, in Variety, But Cholly Knickerbocker, now we're going to be, In high, high so, High soci, High society...

Seth LordYou have a good mind, Tracy. You have a pretty face, a fine, disciplined body that does what you tell it. You have everything it takes to make a lovely woman, except the one essential: an understanding heart. Without it, you might just as well be made of bronze.

C. K. Dexter-HavenTracy, you'd be a wonderful woman if you'd just let your tiara slip a little. But you'll never be a wonderful woman, or even a wonderful human being until you - learn to have some regard for human frailty.
