M: How did you like the fight, Sally?
S: I found it not only too violent but also very brutal 1.

S: Oh, don't be so modest, Martin.
M: No, really. I wouldn't fight one of those tough guys for all the money in the world.

M: That's a different story. Sure, I will. But you've got to pay in advance. (Martin tries to kiss Sally.)
S: No, please don't. I was only kidding.
