Paula McFadden: Five minutes! Leave your bags. This isn't a permanent conversation. Elliot Garfield: I'm dripping on your rug. Paula McFadden: It's been dripped on before. Elliot Garfield: Look, I'm sorry about this. I didn't know there were going to be any complications. Paula McFadden: There's a lot of that going around lately. Elliot Garfield: I don't blame you for being hostile. I think I get the picture. Tony rented me the apartment and split with the money, right? Then you and your daughter got dumped on. Paula McFadden: That is your version. My version is that Tony and I amicably end our relationship. We agreed that I would keep the apartment and you and your six hundred dollars got dumped on. Get the picture? Elliot Garfield: Very sharp. That's sharp. That's very sharp. You're a sharp New York girl, right? Paula McFadden: No, a dull Cincinnati kid, but you get dumped on enough and you start to develop an edge. Elliot Garfield: Okay, so what's the deal, huh? I mean, I got a lease here in my pocket. You gonna honor it, or what? Paula McFadden: I've got a daughter in my bed that tops a lease in your pocket. Elliot Garfield: Look, I don't want to get legal. Legal happens to be on my side, you know? Now I happen to have a lawyer aquaintance downtown, all I have to do is call this lawyer aquaintance of mine and... Elliot Garfield: What? What? Paula McFadden: An actor. Another Goddamn actor. "I happen to have a lawyer aquaitance?" Right out of A Streetcar Named Desire. Stanley Kowalski in summer stock, right? Elliot Garfield: Wrong. Chicago in the dead of winter. Three and a half months at the Drury Lane Theater. Paula McFadden: Ask an actor a question and he gives you his credits. Elliot Garfield: You want to hear the reviews? Elliot Garfield brings to Kowalski dimentions that even Brando had not investigated? Paula McFadden: Terrific! You write beautifuly. Aren't you a little short to play Stanley? Elliot Garfield: Nobody knows that I stood on the poker table. What are you, a critic? Paula McFadden: No, I love actors. As long as they stay up on the stage where they belong. But you put them down in real life and the whole world gets screwed up. Well, I have had enough. I am not getting thrown out of the same lousy apartment twice. You want your money back? Go to Naples. You want this apartment? Buy me two tickets to California. Either way I will give you two minutes to think it over before I start yelling rape. Elliot Garfield: Jesus! You are really something you know that? Really. I'm surprised Tony didn't take a job in the Philippines. Paula McFadden: I hope you are thinking because I am counting. Elliot Garfield: Will you just wait just a second. Just... hold... hold it. Can we make a deal? Paula McFadden: What kind of deal? Elliot Garfield: I don't know. I just got here. Ha, ha. I can have a cup of coffee? Paula McFadden: No. Elliot Garfield: Oh, don't be bashful. Just say what's on your mind.

Paula McFadden: What happened to your eye? Elliot Garfield: I used it to stop a fist from going through my face.
Lucy McFadden: You know what Cynthia Fine said? Paula McFadden: Who is Cynthia Fine? Lucy McFadden: The girl in my class with the braces and the big chest. Anyway, Elliot picked me up from school today, and Cynthia says he's got charisma. I looked it up, and he does. Paula McFadden: All right, cut it out. Lucy McFadden: Cut what out? Paula McFadden: Stop trying to make something between us. Lucy McFadden: Me? Cynthia Fine s... Paula McFadden: Cynthia Fine, my behind. Stop pushing me. Lucy McFadden: Who's pushing? Paula McFadden: You are. Your fingerprints are all over my back. He's okay, all right? Once in a while, he even acts like a regular human being, but stop pushing me because that man is not my type. Lucy McFadden: Paula McFadden: I heard that. What did you say? Lucy McFadden: If you heard, why are you asking? Paula McFadden: What did you say? Lucy McFadden: I said, "Your type never hangs around long enough to stay your type". Paula McFadden: That is a rotten thing to say. Lucy McFadden: I know. I just felt like saying it. Paula McFadden: Jesus. Sometimes I can be so goddamn furious with you. Paula McFadden: Lucy McFadden: That was a stinking thing to do!
Paula McFadden: Are we going to sleep with each other tonight? Elliot Garfield: You know, of all the right up front girls I know, you are the right up frontest. How do you feel about it? Paula McFadden: Nervous. A pushover, but nervous.
Lucy McFadden: What's that? Paula McFadden: Sounds like God. Lucy McFadden: I smell strawberries burning. Paula McFadden: That's incense. Lucy McFadden: What's incense? Paula McFadden: It is what I'm feeling right now.
Mark: You're unhappy Elliot? Elliot Garfield: Unhappy? No. I am freaking petrified. The critics are going to crucify me, Mark. And Gay Liberation is going to hang me from Shakespear's statue. By my genitalia. You gotta help me, Mark. Mark: What do you want, Elliot? Elliot Garfield: I want my hump back! I want my club foot. I want a little paralysis in my right hand! I don't mean a lot, just a little, two stiff fingers, I need a little motivation. Mark: I see. You want to play it safe, eh? You want to give us your standard, conventinal Richard. Well, I can't argue with that Elliot they've been doing it that way for 400 years. Elliot Garfield: Listen, what do I know? I'm lucky to get the part I know that. I come from Chicago. We do things a little bit differently out there. We do the play as written. That doesn't go over in New York? Terrific. I respect you, Mark, I do. You've done off Broadway I haven't. I'm not a quitter. You want me to do Richard the Third like Tatum O'Neal I'll do it but just don't make me look foolish out there. Mark: And you feel foolish. Elliot Garfield: I feel like an asshole! I passed foolish on Tuesday. Mark: Hey, I was never going to let you do it like that. Elliot Garfield: Oh, thank God! Mark: But do you see where I'm heading. Elliot Garfield: I, I'm trying, Mark. Mark: Richard was gay there's no doubt about it. But let's use that as subtext. We'll keep it but now we can put back the hump and the club foot... Elliot Garfield: And the twisted fingers. Mark: If you like them. Elliot Garfield: Like 'em? I love 'em! I'm crazy about 'em! Mark: Then use them, baby, and you will see what I am after. Just try it my way, bubala. I will never let you go wrong.
Elliot Garfield: Enter, sweet Anne. Rhonda Fontana: Do you live alone? Elliot Garfield: Yeah! Unfortunately the other people that live here also live alone.
Elliot Garfield: Alright, here is the situation. Paula McFadden: I know the situation. Elliot Garfield: Just let me say this out loud alright? I mean, I don't really believe this myself. Number one, I'm starting work in the morning and I have no place to sleep tonight. Number two, you don't have any money and you've got my apartment. Also you have your daughter to think about. Paula McFadden: I am thinking of her right now! Elliot Garfield: Do me the courtesy of hearing me out. Please? You are not the only one who can scream rape, you know? Paula McFadden: Ha. Elliot Garfield: We are both in a bind. The two of us. And I think the only practical solution is that we share the apartment. Paula McFadden: I accept. Elliot Garfield: What? Paula McFadden: I accept. I may be stubborn but I am not stupid. Elliot Garfield: You mean it? Paula McFadden: I have a daughter who goes to school and I have to start looking for work in the morning. You have a key. I would have to stand guard all day long to keep you out. I accept, you win, get your bags. You get the small bedroom. Elliot Garfield: What the hell am I getting myself into, huh?
Lucy McFadden: Congratulations. Elliot Garfield: For what? Lucy McFadden: I didn't know what else to say.
Paula McFadden: I thought you didn't put un-natural things in your body? Elliot Garfield: I didn't... I put it into Richard's... I'm trying to kill the son of a bitch!
Paula McFadden: You have homework to do. Lucy McFadden: We're moving in four days. Do I have to do homework? Paula McFadden: Suppose between now and Friday they teach brain surgery. I wouldn't want you to miss it. Lucy McFadden: Mother! We had it last week. Science. Paula McFadden: Are you serious? Lucy McFadden: Dumb! You know, you're dumb. Paula McFadden: Well, I thought maybe in frog dissection. What do I know?

Here, uh... Yeah, come on in. Hi! Gretchen: Pleased to meet you. Oliver Fry: Well... Elliot Garfield: Hi, it's very nice to... Oliver Fry: We won't keep you. There was just one question that I wanted to ask. Would you be interested in a movie? Elliot Garfield: You mean making one? Oliver Fry: Or we could go to one, but I think working is much more fun.
Elliot Garfield: Jesus, I am so scared. I've spent twenty years building up my ego, and when I really need it, it locks itself in the john. Paula McFadden: It'll come back to you, trust me.
Lucy McFadden: How's the play going? Elliot Garfield: Shh. One sick person at a time.
Ronnie Burns: I thought you gave all of this up. Paula McFadden: I did. I just picked the wrong one to give it up for.
Elliot Garfield: How's it feelin', Luce? Lucy McFadden: Did you see The Exorcist? Elliot Garfield: Yeah. Lucy McFadden: Then you better get out of the room.
Lucy McFadden: Does this mean we're not going to California? Paula McFadden: Yeah! Lucy McFadden: That means I have to do my homework, right?
Lucy McFadden: "I told you when we first moved in here that it was never going to be permanent. Christ, I'm not even divorced from Patty yet." Who's Patty? Paula McFadden: Um, I told you about her. Lucy McFadden: No, you didn't. Paula McFadden: Well, I though you'd be upset if you knew you were living with a married man. Lucy McFadden: I wasn't living with him. You were. I was in the next room.
Lucy McFadden: "It's six months' shooting in Spain and Italy. It's a hell of a part, Paula, and I want it. I broke my ass"... Paula McFadden: Ah! Give me that! Lucy McFadden: Ass. I've heard the word before.
