Quotes from
Hugo Barrett:
I'll tell you what I am. I'm a gentleman's gentleman, and you're no bloody GENTLEMAN!
Tony: I want an explanation!
Hugo Barrett: Might I have a word with you alone, sir?
Tony: Do you realize that what you've done is a CRIMINAL offence?
Hugo Barrett: Criminal, sir?
Tony: She's your sister, you bastard!
Hugo Barrett: She's not my sister, sir. So if I may say so, that puts us both rather in the same boat. He knows precisely what I mean. In any case, apart for the area being in your room, I'm perfectly in my rights. Vera is my fiancée.
Tony: What?
[first lines]
Hugo Barrett: Excuse me, sir. My name is Barrett, sir.
Tony: Oh God, of course. I'm so sorry. I fell asleep. We've got an appointment.
Hugo Barrett: Yes, sir.
Tony: What time?
Hugo Barrett: 3'o clock, sir.
Tony: And what time is now?
Hugo Barrett: 3'o clock, sir.
Tony: Uh, it was too many beers at lunch, that's what it is. Do you drink beer?
Hugo Barrett: No. No, I don't sir.
Tony: Well, come upstairs. We can sit down. I'm just back from Africa, I'm quite liking it. What do you think of the house?
Hugo Barrett: It's so nice, sir.
Tony: Needs a lot to be done with, of course.
