Honey: There you are, sir! Duke: It's about time, Honey. HoneY: Sorry, sir. Your disguises have gotten so realistic. Duke: So how have you been, Honey? Honey: Not bad, sir. I made the dean's list this term. How about you? Duke: I'm great. Never better, I'm broke, sick and wanted in four states, well, maybe three. I'm not sure about Wisconsin. Honey: Wisconsin? You added Wisconsin? Sir, you can't go on like this. Duke: I know, I need a new boat, Honey. If I had a new boat, I could get back on my feet. Honey: You'd still be running, sir. Listen, I've been giving this a lot of though, and I think the only solution is for us to get married and move to China. Duke: Well, of course, why didn't I think of that? Honey: I'm serious, sir. I konw lots of Chinese who have married foreigners. You can change your citizenship and get a fresh start! Duke: Let me get this straight, Honey. To avoid prison, you're suggesting I marry you and move to the larget fenal colony in the world, have I got it right? Honey: It'd be strictly a marriage of conveniences, sir. I'd have to insist on twin beds. Duke: Whatever, you're on, Honey, I want the recipe. Honey: Okay, a double bed, but my grandmother sleeps in the same room.
