Dorothy Quote #712

Quote from Dorothy in Love Me Tender

Dorothy: Well, there is not much to tell. Eddie took me to the restaurant where he had met his ex-wife Roberta.
Rose: Well, I would think going there would just remind him of her.
Dorothy: It did. Especially since she owns it, runs it and calls the place Roberta's. As she was seating us, he begged her to come back to him. And after he had wept over his crab cakes, I begged her to come back to him.

Quote from Blanche

Dorothy: That's very interesting. Maybe I could get involved with that. How about you, Blanche?
Blanche: Sure. Why, nothing would be more satisfying than to be of loving service to a lonely, motherless child.
Of course, I'll have to see pictures of the father before I commit.

Rose: That's terrible. Married 25 years and she doesn't know your name is Eddie?
