Arsenic and Old Lace Quote
Mortimer Brewster : Look, Aunt Martha, men don't just get into window seats and die!
Abby Brewster : We know, dear. He died first.
Mortimer Brewster : Wait a minute! Stop all this. Now, look, darling, how did he die?
Abby Brewster : Oh, Mortimer, don't be so inquisitive. The gentleman died because he drank some wine with poison in it.
Mortimer Brewster : How did the poison get in the wine?
Martha Brewster : Well, we put it in wine, because it's less noticeable. When it's in tea, it has a distinct odor.
Mortimer Brewster : You mean, you... You put it in the wine!
Abby Brewster : Yes. And I put Mr. Hoskins in the window seat, because Reverend Harper was coming.
Mortimer Brewster : Now, look at me, darling. You mean, you mean you knew what you'd done and you didn't want the Reverend Harper to see the body?
Abby Brewster : Well, not at tea. That wouldn't have been very nice.
Mortimer Brewster : Oh, it's first-degree.
Abby Brewster : Now, Mortimer, you know all about it and just forget about it. I do think that Aunt Martha and I have the right to our own little secrets.
