Robert Davis: When do I start dancing?

Eduardo Acuña: You do not start dancing.

Robert Davis: But didn't you come to see me about...?

Robert Davis: Oh... but, I'm afraid I don't follow you.

Eduardo Acuña: She thinks you're in love with her.

Robert Davis: Would it be rude of me to inquire if there is any insanity in your family?

[discussing their daughter]

Eduardo Acuña: Maria is going to wait until the right man comes along.

Mrs. Delfina Acuña: Why should she? I didn't.

Maria Acuña: [naughtily] Nice girls don't feel the way I do.

Eduardo Acuña: Why, you're brazen!

Maria Acuña: How could I be... with a heart like an ice cube?

Lita Acuña: Just think Papa, you've been married longer than we've lived!

Eduardo Acuña: I consider that a very fortunate coincidence, my dear.

Eduardo Acuña: A keyhole, no doubt.

Eduardo Acuña: No, you do the dancing, I'll do the thinking.
