Metal Noise: Thanks for 2019! Here’s to 2020!
Johnny: Hold it right there.
Gardenias: It’s me, Johnny.
Johnny: I knew it was you. I can smell you getting off the elevator.
Gardenias: Gardenias, Johnny, your favorite.
Johnny: You was here last night too, wasn’t you?
Gardenias: I was singing at the Blue Monkey last night.
Johnny: You was here and you was smooching with my brother.
Gardenias: That’s a dirty lie, Johnny.
Johnny: Don’t give me that. You been smooching everybody! Snuffy, Al, Leo… Little Moe with the gimpy leg, Cheeks, Boney Bob, Cliff… I could go on forever, baby.
Gardenias: You have me all wrong!
Johnny: All right, I believe you, but my Tommy gun don’t!
Gardenias: Johnny! You’re the only duck in my pond!
Johnny: Get down on your knees and tell me you love me.
Gardenias: Baby! I’m over the moon for you!
Johnny: You gotta do better than that!
Gardenias: If my love was an ocean, Lindy’d have to take two planes to get across it.
Johnny: Maybe I’m off my hinges, but I believe you. That’s why I’m gonna let you go. I’m gonna give you till the count of three to get your lousy, lying, four-flushing carcass out my door! One, two…
(Johnny shoots Gardenias while laughing maniacally)
Johnny: Three. Merry Christmas, you filthy animal. (shoots) And a Happy New Year.
