My Favorite Wife
1940
Judge Walter Bryson: Who are you? Stephen Burkett: Well, your honor... Nick Arden: Oh, he was on the island with her. He's not important to this case. Judge Walter Bryson: I'll decide what's important to the case. What island? Nick Arden: The island where my wife stayed for seven years, your honor. Judge Walter Bryson: They were on an island together for seven years? Nick Arden: Yes, your honor. Judge Walter Bryson: Not alone? Nick Arden: Yes. Judge Walter Bryson: Hmm. Same island? Nick Arden: Yes. Judge Walter Bryson: Is that in the brief? Nick Arden: No, your honor! Judge Walter Bryson: Oh, that should be in the brief. That's the most interesting part of the case.
Nick Arden: The moment I saw you I knew... Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve: I bet you say that to all your wives.
Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve: Oh, by the way, how was my funeral? Ma: Lovely. Doctor Blake preached a wonderful service. Ellen Wagstaff Arden aka Eve: Oh, I wish I had been there.
Nick Arden: I came here with my wife... hum... my bride really. Now my wife, not my bride... my wife... Why should I bother you with details? Hotel clerk: I won't be bothered. Nick Arden: Listen, it's just simple as A B C. Hotel clerk: Don't tell me you got someone in B?
Nick Arden: Impulsive? He's full of carrots!
