For the Boys Quote

Dixie: [Appearing on stage late] So sorry. [British accent]
Dixie: A little trouble over the channel you know, old pip.
Eddie: Really.
Dixie: Righto. We were halfway to Belgium when we ran out of... gas, I believe you call it.
Eddie: That's funny. You don't look like you'd ever run out of gas.
Dixie: Are you trying to get into my flak suit, honey?
Eddie: I'm just trying to debrief you. So a plane without any gas. What did you do?
Dixie: Do?
Eddie: Yeah. Do. You know to keep up morale and all that.
Dixie: Well... well... my co-pilot... lovely young boy but terrified, half out of his wits. You know, nervous. Terrified. I said to him, "This one's going to take a long... hard... pull." So I did! For two hours!
Eddie: Two hours alone with you? That boy deserves a purple heart.
Dixie: Well, it was purple, alright, but I don't think it was his heart!
