• Philip Marlowe : [Riley is playing Williams and Mercer's "The Long Goodbye" on the piano]  You practicing for the Hit Parade?

  Riley : Gotta learn this goddamn thing... he thinks it'll beef up the lunch trade.

  Philip Marlowe : [surveying the empty bar]  Yeah, I don't see anybody waitin' on line.

  Riley : As cheap as I work, he cannot lose.

• Riley : [singing]  There's a long goodbye, And it happens every day, When some passer-by, Invites your eye, To come her way, Even as she smiles a quick hello...

  Philip Marlowe : [on the phone at the piano bar]  Hello. This is Philip Marlowe.
