"HOUSE OF CARDS"
STEED:
Remember; when you're screaming, you're screaming for England.
STEED: Make
jokes, not war.
OLGA: I
thought it was make love not war.
STEED: What a
delightful idea.
GAMBIT: Did
she use her most potent weapon?
SPENCER: Eh?
GAMBIT: Her
big helpless smile.
PURDEY ARRIVES
HOME AND STRIPS TO HER UNDERWEAR NOT REALISING THAT THERE IS A MAN WITH A GUN
SITTING IN ONE OF HER CHAIRS. AS SHE RUSHES TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT, GAMBIT
SUDDENLY GRABS HOLD OF HER AND SHE PULLS HIM TO THE FLOOR ON TOP OF HER...
(BOTH
WHISPERING)
PURDEY:
There's a man
GAMBIT: I know
PURDEY: With a
gun
GAMBIT: Yes
PURDEY: He's
in that chair.
GAMBIT:
Unconscious.
PURDEY: (pause) What?!
GAMBIT: I got
here just as he was breaking in and clobbered him for you. He'll be out cold
for a couple of hours I'd say.
PURDEY: (angry) Well why didn't you tell me before? Why
did you wait until I'd got...(she gestures at her near naked state)
GAMBIT: Silly
question.
PURDEY: It
seems that the golden age of chivalry is quite dead.
GAMBIT: Not
quite. I mean, no more white chargers or dragons but, I did save your life.
GAMBIT: (to Purdey who is holding a poison
capsule)
Thinking of committing Hari Kari? Well don't. If you're thinking of throwing
yourself away...throw yourself my way.
GAMBIT:
Purdey, you are dying, you are poisoned.
PURDEY: That's
the point, I'm not! Well, do I look as if I'm dying? Well...how do I look?
GAMBIT:
beautiful, wonderful, fantastic...
PURDEY: (smiling shyly) Really?
GAMBIT:
Honest. I don't know when I've seen you looking so good.
GAMBIT: Knock
out
PURDEY: He hit
me!
PURDEY:
Suppose he'd tried for a head shot?
STEED: Perov? (shakes head) He's one of the old school...mean and
nasty. Always aim for the body, then if you miss, you maim, you know?
GAMBIT: John
Steed...
PURDEY: You're
beautiful!
STEED: I'm
experienced.
