Beulah Bondi: Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble

Quotes 

• Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : [Tapping Ken on the shoulder with her cane]  Young man, weren't you the lifeguard here a while back?

  Ken Jorgenson : I was, Mrs. Hamble. *Quite* a while back.

  Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : Jorgenson, aren't you?

  Ken Jorgenson : Yes.

  Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : Living in the gardener's cottage in the rear?

  Ken Jorgenson : Well, not any more, ma'am. We're here as guests this time.

  Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : We? Did you marry that pretty thing you were *always* teaching to swim? You didn't fool anyone, you and she - not me, anyway.

  Ken Jorgenson : No, I didn't marry her, ma'am. I met Mrs. Jorgenson in Buffalo.

  Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : Buffalo... that's out West, isn't it?

  Ken Jorgenson : New York, ma'am.

  Mrs. Emily Hamilton Hamble : Oh, yes. Niagara Falls place. Are you a lifeguard there, now?

  Ken Jorgenson : [grinning]  No, ma'am. I'm a research chemist.
