Diane: Carla, even though we have our differences, and we're frequently at odds, there's one thing we very much have in common: We both like Sam. And I'm concerned about him. I think he might get hurt by this liaison with Janet Eldridge.
Carla: Yeah, you're right. He's having a lot of laughs and a hot time with a beautiful woman. The man is a glutton for punishment.
Diane: This is no romp, Carla. It's more serious than that. And the worst part is that she's just using him. I mean, it all adds up. He's an outstanding sports figure, he's attractive, and in this town it doesn't hurt that he's Irish. He's a vote getter.
Carla: So what?
Diane: So when the election's over, it's "So long, Sam." And I think he's really going to be hurt by this. That's "so what."
Carla: You are full of beans. Women come and women go in Sam's life. He's just having a few grins, and I can prove it.
