A Kiss for Corliss

Corliss Archer: Dexter, you weren't with me tonight.

Dexter Franklin: Huh?

Corliss Archer: Well, there's no point in having Daddy tear you into little pieces. You know his temper.

Dexter Franklin: What are you going to tell him?

Corliss Archer: Oh, I'll think of something. Just remember, no matter what, you weren't with me tonight.

Dexter Franklin: I can't do it. I can't let you take the rap.

Corliss Archer: Oh, I'll figure out a story.

Dexter Franklin: When?

Corliss Archer: Oh, I don't know. Give me a minute to think! Oh, my mind's an absolute blank.

Dexter Franklin: If it isn't a blank now, it will be when your old man gets through with you.

Corliss Archer: Dexter! Not when he gets through, before he starts.

Dexter Franklin: Huh?

Corliss Archer: My mind's a blank. I can't remember anything. I've got amnesia, like in the movie.

Dexter Franklin: It might work.

Corliss Archer: Oh, it's gotta work. But Dexter, you must remember, no matter what happens, no matter what I say or do, you weren't with me tonight!

Dexter Franklin: I weren't with you tonight.

Corliss Archer: Wish me luck.
