[Jerry sees Joe impersonating a wealthy yachtsman to flirt with Sugar]
Sugar : [to Joe] This is my friend Daphne, she's a Vassar girl.
Daphne : I'm a what?
Sugar : Or was it Bryn Mawr?

Sugar : [on the yacht Junior's pretending he owns] Which is the port and which is the starboard?
Junior : Well that depends. That depends on whether you're coming or going. I mean, *normally*, normally, the aft is on the other side of the stern. But - And that's the bridge, so you can get from one side of the boat to the other.

Joe : You don't want me, Sugar. I'm a liar and a phony. A saxophone player. One of those no-goodniks you keep running away from.

Sugar : That's right. Pour it on. Talk me out of it.
[She grabs him to kiss him]
