Mr. Fenty:
Horton, how did that bottle get in your pocket? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING HARD LIQUOR?
Horton:
Well, sicne this afternoon. I know you don't approve, Pop, but guess me, until you've had a good cigar and a shot of whiskey, you're missing the second and third best thigns in life.
Rumson:
Horton!
Pardner:
Where'd you take him, Ben?
Elizabeth:
Damn you, Ben Rumson. What are you going to teach this boy next? How to cheat at cards, or just phyiscal education with one of Willie's floozies?
Horton:
That's the best one, Pop!
Rumson:
Horton!
Elizabeth:
Is that what you did today, Ben?
Rumson:
That's what *he* did today, Elizabeth! I tell you, that boy's got a talent for dissipation that is absolutely unique!
