Lucille
The eternal wife.
Everybody makes money but you.
Paul
Yes, they do! There’s plenty fellas around the club that’s just as flat as I am.
Lucille
Ever so brightly.
That makes everything all right.
Paul
I’ll tell you who’s got money, if you want to know, and that’s Stevens.
Lucille
Who?
Paul
This lyric-writer, Stevens. He’s got money.
Lucille
A lot of good that’ll do me.
Paul
He’s a nice kid, too. If Eileen’s got a date with Hart, why don’t she keep it? It’s half past eight.
His eye falls on his watch.
