Hercules: [telling Venus off, as she walks out the door of his trailer] Ungrateful little tramp!

Venus: [she has just been kicked out of Hercules' trailer; she is very upset; yells at Phroso, who is just standing there minding his own business] Well, what are you staring at? Didn't you ever see a lady move before? I guess you've been listening to every word he said.
Venus: [Phroso still hasn't said a word; she has a loud tone of voice] That's it. That's it! Go ahead and laugh. It's funny, ain't it?
Venus: [Phroso still hasn't said a word; her voice is sarcastic] Yeah. Women are funny, ain't they? They're all tramps, ain't they?
Venus: Ye-e-eah. Except when you can get MONEY from them!
[she storms off, goes into the trailer next door]
Phroso: [finally gets mad at Venus for dumping on him; he rushes over to her trailer.] Well, I'll be! Say, who do you think you are, shooting off your head? Hey, this is Phroso -- Phroso you're talking to! Not any of those thugs you've been chasing around with.
Venus: [apologizing, soft tone of voice] Oh, I didn't mean you. I had to take it out on somebody.
