Miss Vavasour : We will miss you.
Max Morden : It's not my choice. My parole has been curtailed. I'm being forced to go.
Miss Vavasour : Oh, Max, I don't think you are a man to be forced into anything.
Max Morden : I never thought you'd get around to calling me Max.
Miss Vavasour : Well, you didn't call me Rose either.
