(Norma is trying to attack King after he washed her mouth out with soap)
King: You and your ideas! "Why don't you take her to Paris with you, Boss?"
Squash: I just thought she'd help you relax!
King: NEVER help me relax!
Squash: Then send her home!
King: Why don't you ever come up with a really good idea?
Squash: For instance?
King: YOU send her home!

Thinks he can just push me around! Thinks I'm just gonna hop on the next boat for the States and that'll be that! Well, you've got another thing coming Mr. Big-shot Fairy Marchand! 'Cause Mrs. Cassidy's little goirl Norma ain't gonna take this one lyin' down! (Norma boards the train and walks all the way down the corridor, raving to herself. She gets out on the balcony of the last car] And don't kid yourself! You ain't seen the last of me yet! [She opens her coat to reveal her underclothes. A boarding passenger, distracted by this, falls off the platform behind the train] Oh, you okay?

You can't think about it, you just gotta put it out of your mind! The more you think about it, the more you worry. The more you worry, the more you think. (eating chocolates) Think, worry, worry, think... mm! too soft... It just gets like a vicious cycle! And then, before you know it, you are impudent! [King walks out of the bathroom, holding a bar of soap ] What's with the soap?
