Valentine: Lots of nickle-plated shoe-horns in there. Thought I’d save express charges by taking them along with me. I’m getting awfully economical.
Judge: While you’re here, daughter, you must see our new safe. Gentlemen, we’ve just had it installed, the very fanciest thing in the county, and we’re proud of it. (he swings the door and shows it) The vault is small, but this new patented door is a wonder. Three solid steel bolts are thrown with one handle; it has a time lock, and once that is set and fastened, we defy any safe-cracker in the land. Would you like to examine it, Valentine?
Valentine: Unfortunately, I don’t know much about safes; it wouldn’t mean anything to me. (he politely looks over the outfit)
Delacour (to Dr. Walters): Is there anything I can do for you?
Dr. Walters (who is leaning on the counter peering through the railings): No, I’m just waiting for a man I know.
Margaret (playing with the door): Oh grandpa, what nice shiny metal! And what funny locks and knobs! Why do you have so many?
Judge: They all have their uses. Bank burglars are cunning rogues.
Margaret: Does it make a big noise when you shut it?
Judge: It will, if you bang it, I guess.
Margaret: Grandpa, can I shut the bolts and turn the knob, like I learned to do for the old one?
