Shanghai Lily: You haven't a cigarette, have you, Doc?
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: You appear to be nervous. Sleep would do you more good.
Shanghai Lily: What makes you think I'm nervous?
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: For one thing, your hands are trembling.
Shanghai Lily: That's because you touched me, Doc.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey: I've been wanting to talk to you, Madeline. Mr. Carmichael tells me you prayed for me last night. I can't quite reconcile that with what followed. If you did pray for me, which I doubt, do you mind telling me why?
Shanghai Lily: I would have done that for anybody, Doc. Good night.
