Mrs. White

• Men should be like Kleenex: soft, strong, and disposable.

• I hated her... so... much, It–it... the f–, it–flame... flames... flames on the side of my face, breathing, breath... heaving breaths... heaving...

Dialogue

Col. Mustard: I prefer Kipling myself. "The female of the species is more deadly than the male." Do you like Kipling, Miss Scarlet?

Miss Scarlet: Sure, I'll eat anything.

Wadsworth: I'm merely a humble butler.

Col. Mustard: What exactly do you do?

Wadsworth: I buttle, sir.

Wadsworth: Professor Plum, you were once a professor of psychiatry specializing in helping paranoid and homicidal lunatics suffering from delusions of grandeur.

Professor Plum: Yes, but now I work for the United Nations.

Wadsworth: So your work has not changed.

Mrs. Peacock: Yvette, is there a little girls' room in the hall?

Yvette: Oui, oui, madame.

Mrs. Peacock: No, I just I want to powder my nose.

Mr. Green: Why is J. Edgar Hoover on your phone?

Wadsworth: I don't know. He's on everybody else's, why shouldn't he be on mine?!

[Col. Mustard looks into the study.]

Col. Mustard: Just checking.

Mrs. Peacock: Everything all right?

Col. Mustard: Yep, two corpses, everything's fine.
