Dez : Jim said a friend of yours got killed outside your hotel... in Atlantic City. He was pretty worried.
Roberta : Killed? Dead?
Dez : Sort of goes with the territory, doesn't it, Susan?
Roberta : Maybe I know who did it. I wish I could remember.
Dez : Maybe you were the killer.
Roberta : [looks uncertain for a second] No!
[scoffs, then thinks it over]
Roberta : I should probably lay low for a while, huh?
Dez : It might be a wise idea. So, you don't know who the guy at the quay was?
[she shakes her head]
Dez : Maybe a jilted lover?
Roberta : [waves idea away, takes another swig from wine bottle] I don't think so.
[reconsiders]
Roberta : Maybe he was.
Dez : You know somethin'? You are not at all what I expected.
[shakes head]
Roberta : [shakes head] You are not quite what I expected either.

Roberta : Dez...
Dez : Hmm?
Roberta : I'm not Susan. I'm a housewife and I live in Fort Lee, New Jersey. I've been married for four years. My husband Gary... He sells bathroom spas and... saunas.
[smirks]
Dez : [scoffs] You never stop, do you?
Roberta : No, really. Really!
Dez : That's what I like about you. I never know what you'll say next. Come here.
[they kiss]

Dez : I believe some of that stuff is mine. Like the answering machine. Like the Charlie Parker records.
