- If this a sample of your work, you’re not very good at pick-ups. - I know. I haven’t had very much experience at it. This is the first time I ever tried to pick up a girl. - Gee, that’s too bad. - I should be better. - How’s that? - Well I’m of those terrible fellows that frightens the farmer’s daughter, you know? I’m a traveling salesman, only a kind of backwards one. - Yeah, you could use a few tips like “I’m sad and lonely, just want someone to talk to. Don’t you know any nice girl in this great big town, how about a few laughs?”. - You know, I wanted to say all those things to you just now, only on the level. Thanks, coach.
The Bigamist, Ida Lupino (1953)
