• Donovan : You always kiss like that?

  Dusty : I've been saving up.

• [Dusty is trying to beat him up] 

  Donovan : Dusty, will you just let me say one word?

  Dusty : One!

  Donovan : Dusty...

  Dusty : That's it!

• Dusty : Donovan? Yes you, you snake oil salesman! Are you coming out here or am I coming in there?

  Russell Donovan : What's the matter, Dusty? Is there some trouble?

  Dusty : Yes, there's trouble all right! And you're in it!

• Russell Donovan : [coming to after Dusty knocks him out with a spitoon and sees her coming at him again]  Dusty! Dusty! Would you just tell me what's bothering you?!

  Dusty : [grabbing Donovan by the jacket]  That bed! That great, big, brass bed! If you had no intention of exercising your husbandly prerogatives, why'd you buy that bed?

  Russell Donovan : That's it? The *bed*?

  Dusty : *Yes*!

  Russell Donovan : [holds her hands away from him]  The bed happens to be for the kids, Dusty. When the nights are getting colder, they'll need a *warmer* place to sleep. So the brass bed is for the boys, and the smaller bed is for *Celia*!

  Dusty : [sweetly]  Well, why didn't you say so in the first place, then we could have avoided this little misunderstanding.

  [frees her hands and walks through the mess in the bar over to the door where Celia is sitting] 

  Dusty : [takes her hand]  Come along, Celia. This is no place for a lady.

• Dusty : Donovan? I'm sorry I hit you in the head with the spitoon.

  Russell Donovan : [smiles]  A perfectly logical misunderstanding. And I'm sorry I offered to buy you a drink in the saloon, too.

  Dusty : A perfectly logical misunderstanding.

  Russell Donovan : Well, I wouldn't make that mistake again.

  Dusty : You wouldn't?

  Russell Donovan : [steps closer, looks as if he's about to kiss her - then he shakes her hand instead]  Good luck, Dusty.
