Davey Lane : [watching Paul Whiteman and his orchestra] Well anyway it's swell music. It's changed though. It's got a new rhythm, nice and slow.
Alexander (Roger Grant) : [cynically] Like syrup... kinda sweet and sticky.
Davey Lane : [exasperated] Whatta ya do with a guy like that?
Jerry Allen : Oh, just relax and put your mind on your drinking. Stop trying to maneuver him into talking business.
Alexander (Roger Grant) : Business? What's that?
