Susy Hendrix : You know there was a murder around here last night? They found the body this morning. A lady from Scarsdale. I heard it on the radio.
Sam Hendrix : So?
Susy Hendrix : What if I get chopped in little pieces and dumped in the river? Little tiny pieces that nobody could possibly recognize as having been a poor defenseless, little blind lady whose husband was off in Asbury Park. You're not listening, Sammy.
Sam Hendrix : Sure I am. Why don't we get some light around here? They're always finding bodies in New York.
Susy Hendrix : Not in the parking lot practically next door, they don't.
Sam Hendrix : You're making it up, Susy.
Susy Hendrix : No, I'm not. I promise. I told you I heard it on the radio. Really, I did.
Sam Hendrix : Come on Susy.
Susy Hendrix : [pause] The police don't have the first notion who do it. Pretty spooky, don't you think, Sammy?
Sam Hendrix : Tell you what I think. I think it's a ploy to make me stay home.
Susy Hendrix : Well, there was a murdered woman found from Scarsdale and that's a true fact.
Sam Hendrix : And you're afraid for your life, that's a true fact?
Susy Hendrix : No, but it was worth a try.

Susy Hendrix : Do I have to be the world champion blind lady?
Sam Hendrix : Yes!
Susy Hendrix : [turns around] Then I will be. I'll be everything you want me to be.
Sam Hendrix : I don't want you to be anything other than Susy.
