Ninotchka: Let's form our own party.

Leon: Right. Lovers of the world, unite!

Ninotchka: When I kissed you, I betrayed a Russian ideal. I should be stood up against the wall.

[Ninotchka is examining a map of Paris]

Leon: Pardon me, are you an explorer?

Ninotchka: No. I'm looking for the Eiffel Tower.

Leon: Good heavens, is that thing lost again? Oh, are you interested in a view?

Ninotchka: I'm interested in the Eiffel Tower from a technical standpoint.

Leon: Technical? No, no, I'm afraid I couldn't be of much help from that angle. You see, a Parisian only goes to the tower in moments of despair to jump off.

Ninotchka: How long does it take a man to land?

Leon: Now isn't that too bad? The last time I jumped, I forgot to time it.

Ninotchka: As basic material, you may not be bad, but you are the unfortunate product of a doomed culture. I feel very sorry for you.

Leon: Would that make you feel better?

Ninotchka: Much better.

[as she stands against the wall, Leon ties a handkerchief over her eyes, opens a Champaign bottle, and as it loudly pops she slumps to the floor]

Ninotchka: I have paid the penalty.
