- Harlow Divine: [coming in to find the newcomer on her chair] Can I help you with something?
- Joni: No thanks. I just screwed up my first bikini contest, that's all.
- Harlow Divine: That's too bad, but you're sitting in my chair.
- Joni: [gets up] I'm sorry, I didn't realize...
- Harlow Divine: No, no. I can put up makeup standing in a men's room surrounded by six sailors and two Brahman bulls
- [takes of her dark sunglasses, revealing sparkling eyes]
- Harlow Divine: and believe me, I have.
- [Joni laughs]
- Harlow Divine: How'd you like it up there?
- Joni: Oh, it was definitely fun. I just wish I could have made it to the end.
- Harlow Divine: First time's always the toughest. That's when you get the bug.
- Joni: What bug?
- Harlow Divine: Being on stage, getting all that attention. Ever think of dancing?
- Joni: Who, me? You got to be kidding.
- Harlow Divine: You've got the looks, that's all. Anyway, that's what I do. I just go to these contests to put up a few extra bucks.
- Joni: What kinda dancing do you do?
- Harlow Divine: Exotic dancing. You know, striptease. Jazz, new wave, the works.
- Joni: [smiling] Doesn't it get to you, all those men always hooting and whistling?
- Harlow Divine: Only when I'm sleeping.
- Joni: I just hope that I'm not making a big major mistake.
- Harlow Divine: There are no mistakes, only lessons.
