Marie Allen : One to fifteen years. But I come up for parole in ten months.
Smoochie : Just a hot minute. What's your rap?
Marie Allen : Robbery.
Smoochie : Hmph. Society. Larcenists don't talk to CPs.

Smoochie : She's a real lady, Georgia, only she married some guy who likes spendin' other people's dough, so he got her to write a bunch of bouncers. I got news for ya. Georgia gives this place class.
Kitty Stark : She ain't the only one. I had two real mink coats and a closetful of black lace nighties and a shelf full of real French perfumes that my girls lifted right out of one of the swankiest stores in town.
Smoochie : Don't rub it in. All I had was a different pair of shoes for every night.
