| QUOTATION: | Frances Stevens: Even in this light, I can tell where your eyes are looking. Look John, hold them—diamonds—the only thing in the world you can’t resist. Then tell me you don’t know what I’m talking about. Ever had a better offer in your whole life, one with everything?
John Robie: I’ve never had a crazier one.
Frances Stevens: Just as long as you’re satisfied.
John Robie: You know as well as I do, this necklace is imitation.
Frances Stevens: Well, I’m not. |
