Rotas

Spade- I hope they don't hang you, Precious, by that sweet neck.
Brigid- You're not?...
Spade- I'm going to send you over. The chances are you'll get off with life. Thats means you'll be out again in twenty years. You're an angel! I'll wait for you. If they hang you, I'll always remember you.
Brigid- Don't, Sam. Don't say that even in fun. Oh, you frightened me for a moment. I really thought... you do such wild and unpredictable things...
Spade- Don't be silly. You're taking the fall.
Brigid- But, but, Sam, you can't! Not afer what we've been to each other. You can't!...

... Spade- And sixth: But that's enough. All those are on one side. Maybe some of them are unimportant. I won't argue about that. But look at the number of them. Now, on the other side we've goy what? All we've got is that maybe you love me and maybe I love you.
Brigid- You know whether you love me or not.
Spade- Maybe I do. What of it? Maybe next month I won't. I've been through it before. I'll have some rotten nights after I've sent you over but that'll pass.
