Jonathan
- Mr. Burroughs: Government control, Jonathan, is anathema to the free-enterprise system. Any intelligent person knows you cannot interfere with the laws of supply and demand.
- Jonathan: I see your point, sir. That's the reason why I'm not for tariffs.
- Mr. Burroughs: Right. No, wrong! You gotta have tariffs, son. How you gonna compete with the damn foreigners? Gotta have tariffs.
- Jonathan: I'm sorry. It was a lousy thing to do. But I was just so humiliated I just had to kill myself.
- Jonathan: Hey, I got it, I'll drop dead. Wouldn't that be nice, huh? I could shoot myself. No, you shoot me and mount my head on the wall next to the moose. You could stretch the panties between my ears. Come on, you'd love that.
- Jonathan: If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna find a very tall building, with a fabulous view, and jump off.
- Jonathan: Uh - this is an elevator.
- Ellen: Really? I love elevators. I think they're just wonderful. I *love* the way they go up - and down. Do you?
- Jonathan: Oh, yeah. I think it's great.
- Ellen: Which do you prefer? Going up? Or, going down?
- Jonathan: Um - up. Up is fine.
- Ellen: Really? I think going down is much more exciting.
- Jonathan: Well, yeah, now that you mention it, down is, eh...
- Ellen: Of course, going up - can be a thrill. It depends.
- [unzips Jonathan's pants]
- Jonathan: That's what I think. Yeah, up is - down is...
- Mr. Burroughs: Jonathan?
- Jonathan: Yes, sir?
- Mr. Burroughs: Evidently you and I have something in common. Can you guess what that might be?
