Lady Trentham: He's still got that vile little dog, I see. Lady Sylvia McCordle: Yes, the ones we hate last forever.

Lady Sylvia McCordle: Mrs Wilson, a major crisis has arisen. I've just found out that Mr Weissman won't eat meat and I don't know what to do and I can't ask Mrs Croft. I simply don't dare. Mrs. Wilson: Oh, everything's under control your ladyship. Mr Weissman's valet informed us as soon as he arrived so we've prepared a special version of the soup, he can eat the fish and the hors d'oeuvres, there'll be a welsh rarebit for the game course, I'm not sure what we're going to do about the entree but we'll think of something. Lady Sylvia McCordle: Thank you Mrs Wilson. Ten steps ahead as always. Which one of you is Mr Weissman's valet? Henry Denton: I am, your Ladyship. Lady Sylvia McCordle: Are you indeed. Yes. Well. Thank you for your...[pause while she takes a good look at him] efficiency.

Raymond Stockbridge: Well I think it's ridiculous. I'm here to shoot. Louisa Stockbridge: Darling, it's a relief to me to sit next to someone who isn't deaf in one ear. Raymond Stockbridge: How's that?

Lady Trentham: They're rather a mixed bunch. That Mr. Weissman's very odd. Apparently, he produces motion pictures. The Charlie Chan Mysteries. Or does he direct them? I never know the difference. Mary! I suppose it's fun having a film star staying but there's always so little to talk about after the first flush of recognition. And why has Freddy Nesbitt brought that awful common little wife of his? Isabel only asked him because another gun dropped out; that's no excuse to inflict her on us all. Mary... Tomorrow, I'll have breakfast in bed, and then get straight up into the tweeds. What shirt have you brought? Mary Maceacran: The green with the pink stripe. Lady Trentham: Oh no, dear, no. No, that's quite wrong. Always something very plain for country sports, the one I wore today will do. Mary Maceacran: But it's soiled. Lady Trentham: Well, you can wash it, can't you?

Mary Maceachran: Nobody can stab a corpse and not know it. Robert Parks: Really? When was the last time you stabbed a corpse?

Henry Denton: You Brits really don't have a sense of humor do you? Elsie: We do if something's funny, sir.
