• Policía I : What's going on?

  Pepa : Nothing. Just discussing the lady's dress.

  Candela : [in tears]  It's awful!

  Carlos : It's only a dress.

  Candela : But it's awful!

• Carlos : [Carrying Marisa, who has passed out, onto the patio]  But a minute ago...

  Pepa : A minute ago she wanted to go home but since you ignored her, she got depressed and had some gazpacho.

  Carlos : Ah. That made her fall asleep?

  Pepa : Yes. It was spiked with barbiturates. Sorry.

• Carlos : What happened?

  Pepa : She fell asleep.

  Candela : So suddenly?

  Pepa : Yes. The strangest things can happen suddenly.

• Carlos : [after finding out the gazpacho is spiked with morphine]  Why did you do that? Were you trying to kill yourself too?

  Pepa : No. It was for your dad. He loves gazpacho.

• Pepa : You must think I'm crazy.

  Carlos : No. You're just nervous from a lack of sleep.
