Tony

You can wear ’em in da bed if you want!

Amy

Oh, thank you, Tony! [She is just about to kiss him.]

Joe

Now, everything’s fine!

Amy

[Furiously]: Say what’s the idea? What have you got to do with this? You’re always buttin’ in. Say . . . [Suddenly she remembers the momentous photograph which still lies on the table.] Wait a minute. [She picks it up and hands it quite violently to Joe.] Here’s your picture.

Tony

[Watching in terror]: Santa Maria!

Amy

Here! You better take it! Take it, I tell you! I don’t want it.

[Joe looks first at the photograph, then at the lady.]

Joe

I guess you ain’t far wrong, Amy. I hope there ain’t no hard feelin’s.
