The Big Store
1941
Mr Grover: If Ms Phelps were not my fiancée, I would turn in my resignation and walk out of this store for good! Martha Phelps: Oh no, no... Wolf J. Flywheel: Fiancée? Martha Phelps: Yes. Wolf J. Flywheel: You mean a woman of your culture and money and beauty and money and wealth and money would, would marry that imposter?
Woman Shopper: (to Flywheel lying on a bed) Can you tell me the price of this bed? Wolf J. Flywheel: $8000 Shopper: Why that's preposterous! I can get the same bed anywhere in town for $25. Wolf J. Flywheel: Yes, but not with me in it!
Ravelli: I take-a your picture. Hey! Look at me and laugh. Wolf J. Flywheel: I've been doing that for 20 years.
(Wolf is about to propose to Martha) Wolf J. Flywheel: Martha, dear, there are many bonds that will hold us together through eternity. Martha Phelps: Really, Wolf? What are they? Wolf J. Flywheel: Your government bonds, your savings bonds, your liberty bonds.
Martha Phelps: Tell me, Wolfie dear, will we have a beautiful home? Wolf J. Flywheel: Of course. You're not planning on moving, are you? Martha Phelps: No, but, uh, I'm afraid after we're married awhile, a beautiful young girl will come along, and, uh, you'll forget all about me. Wolf J. Flywheel: Don't be silly. I'll write you twice a week.
