- Ray: Pretty late.
- Frenchy: Yeah, you too. What did you do?
- Ray: I, you know, I worked late... and then May and me had some Chinese food.
- Frenchy: You and May? What'd you talk about over dinner? Cartoons?
- Ray: Are you kiddin'? We went up to her apartment. We watched "White Heat" on television.
- Frenchy: Till 3 a.m.?
- Ray: No. Then we went out and we got a pizza.
- Frenchy: Chinese food and a pizza? With your stomach, I'm surprised you weren't shot breaking into the Pepto-Bismol factory.
- Ray: I get a bad vibe about this guy, David. It's my street instinct, but I just don't trust him.
- May Sloane: Yeah, I know why. Because he's younger than you are, handsomer than you are, he's much taller than you are, he's smarter than you are, he's much more exciting than you are...
- Ray: May, don't feel obligated to pull any punches with me. I can take it.
- Benny: You know what I say? She gets a share, but not a full share.
- Tommy: I'd go for that. Yeah.
- Denny: Yeah, what if we each get a fourth and she gets, like, a third?
- Benny: What are you? Nuts? Then she'd be getting more than us!
- Denny: How do you figure?
- Benny: Where are you gonna get four fourths and a third? Can't you add?
- Denny: I don't do fractions, all right?
- [Frenchy learns her accountants have looted all her assets]
- Frenchy: This is the worst news...
- Frenchy's Lawyer: Oh, no. No, Mrs. Winkler, it's not.
- Frenchy: No? Well, it is to me!
- Frenchy's Lawyer: No, the worst news is coming up.
- May Sloane: I met a wonderful man downstairs. He seemed to like me. He said I reminded him of his wife who's dead. But I assume he meant when she was alive.
- Frenchy: Well, I wanna be the real thing! And you better wise up, 'cause if I grow and you stay as stupid as you are, we're gonna have big problems, Ray!
- Frenchy: [on her company's expansion] That's right, yeah. We've been planning it for months. Yeah?
- Frenchy's Lawyer: In order to do that, you needed a bank loan. Are you aware of that? Quite a substantial loan.
- Frenchy: Get to the point. What?
- Frenchy's Lawyer: They asked you to sign a promissory note to the bank.
- Frenchy: You're speaking to the wrong person. This is exactly what I got accountants for.
- Frenchy's Lawyer: Yes, but unfortunately, your accountants are in Venezuela.
- Frenchy: This is all so confusing!
- Frenchy's Lawyer: Frances, you put up your home and savings as a note for a monster loan.
- Frenchy: [pauses, then holds out her whiskey glass] Could you put a touch of cyanide in here? It needs to be a little stronger.
- Frenchy's Lawyer: You've lost it all, Frenchy. Or should I say, you've been swindled out of it all.
- Frenchy: You mean I got...?
- Frenchy's Lawyer: Nothing, Mrs. Winkler. You have nothing. No... no house, no bank account, just a couple of large, outstanding loans which we feel you can best deal with by filing for bankruptcy.
- Frenchy: Bankruptcy? Bankruptcy? I'm not up to the B-words yet!
- Frenchy: They say I have a flair for decorating. You know this rug lights up? It's made of fiber optics. I'll turn it on later. Stevens, what's with the snails?
- May Sloane: It was a really tragic story, because my husband, Otto, was dyslexic, and the only thing he could spell correctly was his name.
- [last lines]
- Frenchy: Hey, It was you who taught me how to open a safe.
- Ray: That was one of my fondest memories of our time together... What are you saying? You boosted this from David's safe? Frenchy, that's stealing.
- Frenchy: Not exactly. Look, it's a long story, Ray. Let's sell it, and I'll fill you in on the flight to Miami.
- Ray: Sweetheart, you are the greatest.
- Frenchy: Yeah.
- David: I'm talking about Henry James, the author. Yeah? Well, this is where he lived and this is where he worked.
- Ray: Where did he eat? I'm hungry. I don't care where he lived. I want to know where he ate.
- Frenchy: I remember! "The Hair-ess", right?
- David: The "H" is silent.
- Frenchy: Oh, did he write that too?
- Ray: What is this?
- Frenchy: It's a Damon Dexter. A discovery of David's.
- Ray: Yeah? I say it's depressing.
- Frenchy: Knock it off. You wouldn't know a masterpiece if it bit you in the ass.
- Ray: I refuse to look at this, Frenchy.
- Frenchy: And what's that supposed to mean?
- Ray: It means as long as this is there on the wall, I don't look at that wall.
- May Sloane: Then the lights begin to flash. Little pinpoints of light. Then my tongue turns black and I can't swallow.
- Dr. Henske: Really?
- May Sloane: The diagnosis is Parkinson's, but they think it could be the Ebola virus, or mad cow disease.
- Ray: You know? Frenchy eats frog's legs.
- May Sloane: It's supposed to taste like chicken.
- Ray: Rabbit!
- May Sloane: Rabbit tastes like frog's legs?
- Ray: No, forget it, forget it.
- Ray: I think she's developing a crush on her teacher, David.
- May Sloane: Yeah. Well, you know, he's very good-looking, and he's really bright and very charming. And he's very elegant...
- Ray: Okay, May, I got the picture. It's all right.
- May Sloane: Well, when you're right, you're right.
- Ray: Thank you.
- Frenchy: Well I wanna be the real thing! and you better wise up coz if grow and you stay as stupid as you are we're gonna have big problems Ray!
