Jerry, _please_ don't treat me like a lady,
gpt
You've done nothing to deserve such treatment.
human
You used to be so nice to me on the yacht.
gpt
Because you behaved yourself like a kid, and knew your place.
human
Did you like my behaviour on the yacht?
gpt
No, but it was an improvement on this dime-novel, moving-picture heroine you're trying out now.
human
You're a fine movie villain, Jerry. You look as if you would pass me the poisoned bean.
gpt
Jerry, if you don't like any of my behaviours, why were you nice to me?
human
Because I thought you were a lonely little girl with no one to play with.
gpt
I am that now, Jerry.
human
Whose fault is that?
gpt
Yours.
human
You could play with me, very nicely, with no interruptions from the Wax Doll, if you'd only thaw. Couldn't you thaw a tiny bit, Jerry?
gpt
Jerry, I'm going to sit in here with you men. I'm lonesome. I've always wanted to sit in here; it looks so cozy and smells so smelly.
human
You'll have to smell it from afar,
gpt
Execute me, Jerry, but don't look like that.
human
Haven't you any instincts of breeding at all? he inquired.
gpt
No nice girl does that sort of cheap, fresh thing. What do you suppose those men think of you? They do not consider you the least cute or clever, if that is what you intended them to think. Their main idea is that, if I am your guardian, I ought to lock you up until you learn some manners.
human
I wish you _were_ my guardian, Jerry.
