- Christine Webber: [after he lits her cigarette] Thank you.
- [exhales smoke, regards his disdain]
- Christine Webber: Why do you stay with us, Ben?
- [no answer]
- Christine Webber: Ever the silent Doberman.
- [smiles]
- Christine Webber: You don't like me, do you?
- Benjamin: My likes and dislikes are of no consequence. I'm employed by Mr. Webber. I answer to him and to him alone.
- Christine Webber: [as he walks off contemptuously] Such loyalty.
- Christine Webber: [the dogs want to go to the park, and the one begs plaintively] Oh, okay, you win.
- [the dog licks her face, and she scratches under its ears]
- Christine Webber: Okay, you talked me into it.
- Greg Standford: [at cricket match] This has gotta be the most boring game I have ever seen in my entire life.
- Christine Webber: Wouldn't talk so loud if I were you. Get lynched. Or worse.
- Christine Webber: What kind of animal are you?
- Greg Standford: For God's sakes, I didn't plan to kill him.
- [she glares at him]
- Greg Standford: Tell me, how many times did you want him dead?
- Christine Webber: If he hadn't walked downstairs, you would have made away with a fortune in jewels, wouldn't you? That is, after having a farewell fuck!
- Greg Standford: Now just what...?
- Christine Webber: [yelling] That's how you planned it! Wasn't it? Right from the beginning. First you were just a lousy thief, but now you're a murderer. How does it feel? Do you like the way it sounds? Murderer!
- [as she slaps him:]
- Christine Webber: You used me!
- Greg Standford: [grabs her by the shoulders] Listen to me! I didn't plan to go upstairs! That was my mistake! But I had to see you one more time. When I saw you asleep, I wanted you.
- Christine Webber: [snarls] You! You're clever! The park and the dog... but the dog wasn't even yours.
- Greg Standford: No, it wasn't. I did use you. That's how it started.
- Christine Webber: They have seen prints all over the house. And they found a car.
- Greg Standford: I stole it.
- Christine Webber: They're going to get you! And then they're gonna get me.
- Greg Standford: They're not gonna get anybody.
- Christine Webber: Don't you think they're gonna connect us? That man is no fool. And he already knows.
- Greg Standford: He doesn't know anything! Now, he may suspect, but he can't prove a damn thing. No one has seen us together.
- Christine Webber: Do you know how much I inherit on Clyde's death? Three million dollars! That's three million reasons for wanting him dead. They know that.
- Greg Standford: As long as you stick to your story, they have nothing on you. You were asleep.
- Christine Webber: What are you going to do?
- Greg Standford: Get out as soon as possible.
- Christine Webber: [softly] What about me?
- Greg Standford: You have nothing to worry about.
- Christine Webber: That's not what I meant.
- Greg Standford: Christine... you don't need me.
- Christine Webber: [very softly:] Don't I?
- [shaking her head]
- Christine Webber: What do you know about need?
- Christine Webber: What are you doing here?
- Greg Standford: Happy to see me?
- Christine Webber: No...
- Greg Standford: I just thought I'd drop by and meet your husband. You're right, he really is a...
- [Clyde notices the furtive couple]
- Christine Webber: Please leave...
- Greg Standford: Oh, I couldn't do that. They wanna sell me some yearlings... It's the game, you know. They get you high on champagne, and you end up with a four-legged friend.
- [to Clyde, who sauntered over:]
- Greg Standford: Hi.
- Christine Webber: Oh, Clyde, this is, uh, sorry, what was your name?
- Greg Standford: Hastings.
- Christine Webber: Yeah. Mr. Hastings was just explaining what a good investment thoroughbreds are.
- Clive Webber: With all respect, I find horses like women, so unpredictable. Not a safe investment.
- Greg Standford: Then I bow to your financial genius... sir.
- Christine Webber: How long have you been a criminal?
- Greg Standford: How long have you been a bored, rich wife?
- Christine Webber: Such a waste. You're obviously capable of doing a hundred other things.
- Greg Standford: Probably. See those trees?
- Christine Webber: Yes...?
- Greg Standford: I want you to go up there.
- Christine Webber: No! It's thronging with people.
- Christine Webber: Greg, you've got to get out of here. I'm terrified.
- [panting for breath]
- Christine Webber: For Christ's sake, please leave.
- Greg Standford: If that's what you want.
