Barefoot in the Park Quotes

“MOTHER. [...] Mr. Velasco . . . Where are my clothes?
VELASCO. Your clothes . . . ? Oh, yes . . . (He takes a piece of paper out of his pocket) Here. (He gives it to her)
MOTHER. I’m sure I wore more than that.
VELASCO. It’s a cleaning ticket. They’re sending them up at six o’clock.
MOTHER. (Taking the ticket) Oh, they’re at the cleaner’s. . . (After a moment’s hesitation) When did I take them off?
VELASCO. You didn’t . . . You were drenched and out cold. Gonzales took them off.
MOTHER. (Shocked) Mr. Gonzales??
VELASCO. Not Mister! . . . Doctor Gonzales!
MOTHER. (Relieved) Doctor . . . Oh, Doctor Gonzales. . . Well, I suppose that’s all right. How convenient to have an M.D. in the building.
VELASCO. (Laughing) He’s not an M.D. He’s a Doctor of Philosophy.”
