Myrtle Bagot: [smacks her on the backside] Albert Godby, how dare you!
Albert Godby: I couldn't resist it!
Myrtle Bagot: Oh, well, trouble you for keeping your hands to yourself!
Albert Godby: Oh, you blushing - oh, you look wonderful when you're angry... just like an avenging angel.
Myrtle Bagot: I'll give you avenging angel!... Coming in here taking liberties!
Albert Godby: I thought last Monday, you said you wouldn't object to a friendly little slap.
Myrtle Bagot: Never mind about last Monday... I'm on duty now. And I should think to what would happen if Mr. Saunders should be looking through the window.

Myrtle Bagot: You ought to be ashamed of yourself!
Albert Godby: Oh, it's high spirit... don't be mad at me.

Albert Godby: Come on a quick one across the counter!
Myrtle Bagot: Albert, stop it!
Albert Godby: [takes hold of her arms] Come on!
