"This is the party." "Driving's nixed in a blackout and streetcars are down." "Bob, why don't you and Sheila take a quick look outside for the others?" " I'll do it." " Gene, our guests are here to see you." "So are the ones stumbling around in the dark." "Plus there's Nazis on the prowl." "At least out there I can be of use."

"(Indistinct chatter)" "At this rate we'll be here all night." "Vera?" "This is how we do things." "It's one hell of a cock-up." "I mean... one heck of a muddle." "Looks like a cock-up to me." "What improvements do you propose?" "Well... at the factory, we work assembly lines." "Which here would mean we'd pile each item in a row." "Each gal works a station, pass to the next... we'd cut through this mess like butter." "That seems rather regimented." "But highly efficient." "Exactly!" "What's your name?" "Vera Burr." "Go on then, Miss Burr." "Show us how the gun-girls do it." "Okay." "First we need to put all these tables in a row."

"Come on ladies!" "The party's taking off!" "This is outrageous." "Look Gunner Boy, you can't be here." "That's where you're wrong." "I was invited." "Invited?" "Who's brainchild was that?" "Mine." "There she is." "Your directions were spot-on kiddo, but your recon on the party was not." "Look, buddy." "This isn't a party." "It is now." "See I was just on duty at the old-folks home." "It is time to let loose." "We may gotta be dark, but we don't gotta be quiet!" "♪ (Radio)" "For you." "Woo!" "I couldn't find him." "Oh, I hope nothing's happened to Gene." "I can take another look." " Oh, would you?" " No, he wouldn't." "There's no point in Ned roaming around in the dark." "What if he's in danger?" "What if he needs help?" " What if you serve the roast?" " Not without Gene." "Geez, this good stuff sure evaporates quick." "Has anybody seen the whiskey?" "My brother took it." "No!" "Mom, you know he did." "Oh no."

"Are you fond of shrimp cocktail, Miss Burr?" "Yes." "I treat myself to them every birthday at the Arcadian Court." "The cafeteria at Simpsons?" "What's your Christmas dinner a hamburger at Fran's?" "(Laughing)" "Miss Demers..." "Things look like they're well in hand." "I have other plans." "Nice to meet you all." "Any shoulder to the wheel is one deserving respect, Miss Demers." "(Swing music on Radio)" "(Indistinct chatter)" "I wouldn't have imagined those two together." "You and me both." "She doesn't seem like herself." " Is she al" " What have you all got to eat?" "You've already emptied the ice-box." "Well, I skipped dinner, so..." "You're welcome to go home and eat your own food anytime you like." "Boy, that's some kind of hospitality, thank you." "I'm hungry too." "Aren't there pickles in the cellar?" "Pickles!" "Now we're cooking with gas." "Hang on." "The scuttlebutt is that you can sing." "Sit down." "Do you know "Won't You Come See Me Sometime"?" "Everybody knows that one." "Good, because I only know two songs and the other one's not fit for mixed company."

"First time I saw the Luftwaffe light up the London night with these giant flares floating down on parachutes?" "Would be a thing of beauty if they weren't turning the city into a giant target." "I used a jack knife from my ditty bag to carve out shrapnel from the leg of a man in my unit." "So on behalf of the men who'll be getting those bags?" "Thanks for saving our legs." "'Course, I got my share of revenge on the Jerries, let me tell you." " Where have you been?" "GENE:" "The best..." " My turn to go for a walk." "GENE: was the Messerschmitt" "I took down over the Channel." "The bastard's face when he realized he was going west." "Nothing beats watching the enemy's face as the life drains out of him." "Nothing." "Hey." "Not allowed to be on the phone during a blackout." "Unless it's an emergency." "Who you calling?" "None of your business." "Where are my pickles?" "My pickles?" "Pickles?" "Oh I get it." "You're afraid of the dark." "Don't worry, I'll be your go-fer." "No you won't." "Just stay here." "It's no trouble." "I've been in worse spots than your root cellar." "I'll get the bloody pickles." "Sure thing, doll." "It's your house." "What are you doing?" "That is not your job." "It's like the siege of Stalingrad here, our guests are starving." " This is not your party!" " Of course it's not." "It never is." "For God's sake, act your age." "Do you care that you humiliated me in front of Ned?" "!" "Why should I care what he thinks?" "Because I like him!" "Of course, you're too busy showing off Gene to notice." "How could you bring that man into my house?" "Knowing what he knows about me?" "What does he know?" "That you lost a baby?" "Perhaps after seeing the way you acted tonight, he probably thinks that was for the best..." "Gene's made a fool out of you." "And you're the only one who can't see it." "Dinner!" "I'm not gonna let you die in here." "I'll stop the bleeding, so you stand a chance." "Then you're back to that camp."
