[to Muggsy, about 'Lady Eve'] They look too much alike to be the same. If she came here with her hair dyed yellow and eyebrows different or something…But she didn’t dye her hair and she didn’t pretend she’d never seen me before which is the first thing that anybody’d do. She says I look familiar…If she didn’t look so exactly like the other girl, I might be suspicious, but you don’t understand psychology. If you wanted to pretend you were somebody else, you’d glue a muff on your chin and the dog wouldn’t even bark at ya.

Not good enough…they’re not good enough for him. Every Jane in the room is giving him the thermometer and he feels they’re just a waste of time.
