The Milky Way (1936)

Dorothy Wilson: Polly Pringle

Quotes 

• Burleigh Sullivan : [Burleigh calling on the phone in Polly's apartment to get a doctor for his horse, Agnes]  This is sure nice of you.

  Polly Pringle : That's all right.

  Burleigh Sullivan : [on the phone]  Hello, hello? Is this Kinney? This is Burleigh. Something's happened to Agnes. Yeah. She's lying in the gutter.

  [Polly displays shock, as she doesn't know Agnes is a horse] 

  Burleigh Sullivan : Uh, well, she won't get up. Her tongue's hangin' out a foot!

  [Polly even more shocked] 

  Burleigh Sullivan : Thirsty? Oh, she couldn't be, she's had plenty to drink. What she's got's a bellyache. Yeah, you better get her an ambulance. Uh, this is 56, Lotus Apartments. Yes.

  [hangs up phone] 

  Polly Pringle : You better bring the lady up here until...

  Burleigh Sullivan : Oh, but she's not a lady.

  Polly Pringle : I didn't think she was... but if she's sick it doesn't make a difference what kind of woman she is.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Oh, but Agnes- she's just an old horse.

  Polly Pringle : Oh, that's all.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Well, thank you very much. Uh, goodbye.

  [opens door and walks into a closet]
