Madame Krusemark & Harry Angel
Madame Krusemark: I need your exact date of birth.
Harry Angel: Sure! I was born on February 14th, 1918. That's Valentine's day.
Madame Krusemark: How curious! I used to know a boy who was born on that exact same day.
Harry Angel: Well, you know how it is, all the soldiers home on leave and all. Hey, maybe we could pull your friend's chart and save ourselves some time.
Madame Krusemark: I don't think so. Every person is very different. I don't think you'd like his chart.
