Joanna Wallace: [referring to a pair of newlyweds seated in the back of a Rolls Royce] They don't look very happy.
Mark Wallace: Why should they? They just got married.

Joanna Wallace: [upset] You just want me to become a beautiful memory, the sooner the better!
Mark Wallace: Who said anything about beautiful?

Ruth Manchester: [after Howard knocks the luggage off the top of the car by driving into a low beam carport] Daddy, did you do that on purpose?

Joanna Wallace: Hello.
Mark Wallace: Well?
Joanna Wallace: [softly, on the verge of tears] I'm back.
Mark Wallace: Enjoy yourself?
Joanna Wallace: [nods] Yes, thank you. But I *missed* you.
[Mark sarcastically rolls his eyes, not believing her]
Joanna Wallace: But I *did*.
Mark Wallace: Why?
Joanna Wallace: Because he's so serious.
Mark Wallace: I thought you liked people who were serious.
Joanna Wallace: But he's *so* serious.
Mark Wallace: Well, I'd better make some funny faces...
Joanna Wallace: [softly] You don't need to make funny faces.
[Mark gives no response]
Joanna Wallace: Mark, I'm back!
Mark Wallace: You humiliated me. You humiliate me... and then you come back.
Joanna Wallace: [nods tearfully] That's right.
Mark Wallace: Thank God!
[he hugs her and they tearfully kiss]

Mark Wallace: [Mark and Joanna's car is on fire] Water!

Joanna Wallace: Oh! It likes water!

Mark Wallace: Are you a virgin?
[Joanna seems shocked by the question]
Mark Wallace: I was for two years at the University of Chicago.

Joanna Wallace: 'Oui, monsieur.'

Mark Wallace: If there's one thing I really despise, it's an indispensable woman.

Mark Wallace: Just wish that you'd stop sniping.
Joanna Wallace: I haven't said a word!
Mark Wallace: Just because you use a silencer doesn't mean you're not a sniper.
