• Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : Sally?

  Sally Holland : Yes?

  Sally Holland : What is it?

  Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : You're going to have a baby.

  Sally Holland : Well, how do you know?

• Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : [to Sally]  We've got a job to do. Now, if we start scheduling flights to fit the birthrate - do you realize there are fifteen hundred babies born a month in SAC?

  Sally Holland : And do you realize you're beginning to sound more like General Hawkes every day?

• Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : [after Sally has had their baby]  What'd you name her?

  Sally Holland : Just what you said - Hope.

  Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : Hope? Hope - I said Hope?

  Sally Holland : Well, yes, that's what you said in your telegram.

  [She reaches for and reads the telegram] 

  Sally Holland : Can't think of any name but Hope. Everything fine.

  Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : [Pointing to the telegram]  Uh huh... no, honey. You see, I said 'Can't think of any name, but hope everything fine.

  [They both laugh]

  Sally Holland : What do you think I'm doing? I came to be with you. Oh, I've missed you. I'm your bride of five months - remember me?

  Lt. Col. Robert 'Dutch' Holland : Yes, dear, I know, but..

  Sally Holland : Well, I just didn't see any sense in sitting around and waiting, so here I am. Don't you want me?
