    Pillow Talk quotes

    • Jan: [walks in after finishing a meeting with Jonathan and seeing Alma's on the kitchen extension] Hi, All, any calls?

      Alma: [swooning, puts her hand over the receiver] It's him.

      [Alma goes back to listening on the phone, and Jan smirks and looks at her watch]

      Jan: [Jan walks over to Alma, and takes the phone out of her hand] Mr. Allen, you're on *my* half-hour.

      [Jan hangs the phone up with a smirk]

      Alma: Party pooper!

      [Alma grabs her bag, and lumbers to the front door]

      Jan: [Jan chuckles and starts walking away when the phone rings. She picks it up] Hello?

      Brad Allen: Don't ever do that, again.

      Jan: Mr. Allen, we made an agreement; you were on *my* time.

      Brad Allen: Alright. So, I overlapped by a few measly minutes. What am I supposed to do when someone calls me? Be as rude as you are?

      Jan: Have you anything else to say?

      Brad Allen: Yes. Get off my back, lady. Stop living vicariously on what you think I do! There are plenty of warm rolls in the bakery - stop pressing your nose against the window!

      [slams phone down]

    • Jonathan Forbes: [after having awkwardly kissed Jan for the first time and seeing her unimpressed reaction] Well, they didn't hit the moon with the first missile shot either.
