- Dr. Crippen: Belle, I'm going to have to ask you to get rid of those young men.
- Belle Elmore: Oh, you are, are you? Well, we have to take in lodgers. I'm not using my money to run this house for you.
- Dr. Crippen: I'm not criticizing them or you, it's just that this isn't a home anymore.
- Belle Elmore: I didn't know it ever was a home.
- Dr. Crippen: You were happy here when we first moved in.
- Belle Elmore: The house is alright.
- Dr. Crippen: I realize I'm not everything you could wish for in a husband, but our life together isn't all that bad.
- Belle Elmore: Maybe not for you.
- Dr. Crippen: You have everything you need. I doubt if any of your... friends have more jewelry or clothes.
- Belle Elmore: That's not all a woman needs.
- Dr. Crippen: We've talked about that so many times.
- Belle Elmore: That's right, and all we ever do is talk about it.
- Dr. Crippen: You've had too much to drink.
- Belle Elmore: I'm sober enough to see through you and your little fancy girl!
- The Governor: You know, Crippen, I've never met anyone who struck me as less likely to commit murder than yourself.
