Quote from Sam in The Bartender's Tale

Lillian: Buck up, Sam. I'm sure it's all for the best. After all, you're young and not so schooled in the ways of love as l. Such a coupling could be fatal. Unfortunately, I've already had two husbands die in bed.
Sam: I'm sorry. What did they die of?
Lillian: [chuckles] You child.
Sam: Really?
Lillian: Yes, they fainted, which all my men do. But they never came to.
Sam: They fainted? You're saying that that's normal?
Lillian: Well, I don't want to gloat, but yes, it has been known.
Sam: Were these healthy guys to begin with?
Lillian: Well, they weren't athletes such as yourself, but they certainly weren't weaklings. And why do you ask?
Sam: Well, I was just thinking that maybe... No, no, you're right. You're absolutely right. Back to work.
Lillian: Yes, we must get back to work, Sam.
Sam: I don't want to beat this thing to death here, but when these guys went, were they, like, smiling?
Lillian: Ear to ear. And that was the grumpy one.
