Penguin Pool Murder (1932)

Rochelle Hudson: Telephone Operator

Quotes 

• Hildegard Withers : Are you sure it was a man's voice?

  Telephone Operator : Well it ain't likely a woman'd be calling me baby, is it?

  Hildegard Withers : No, not so far downtown as this. Now, baby, I mean, eh, get the Chief Operator to trace that call. Tell her to report to Inspector Piper at Police Headquarters.

  [Pointing to the Telephone Operator's lipstick] 

  Hildegard Withers : Oh, next time use a lighter shade. That's a little vulgar. Au revoir.

  Telephone Operator : Okay, Lydia Pinkham.

• Telephone Operator : Say, what are you? A policewoman?

  Hildegard Withers : As far as it concerns you, I'm connected to the detective bureau... not very pleasantly... but connected still.
