Dialogue
Baby Houseman
Have you had many women?
Johnny Castle
What?
Baby Houseman
Have you had many women?
Johnny Castle
Baby, come on.
Baby Houseman
Tell me. I want to know.
Johnny Castle
No, no. Look, you gotta understand what it's like.
Before, you come from the streets, and suddenly you're up here, and then women are throwing themselves at you and they smell so good. They really take care of themselves. I never knew women could be like that.
They're so goddamn rich, you think they must know about everything. They're slipping their room keys in my hand two and three times a day -- different women -- so, here I think I'm scoring big, right?
You think, "They wouldn't be doing this if they didn't care about me, right?"
Baby Houseman
That's all right. I understand. You were just using them, that's all.
Johnny Castle
No, no, that's not it. That's the thing, Baby. You see, it wasn't like that. They were using me.
What's your real name, Baby?
Baby Houseman
Frances, for the first woman in the Cabinet.
Johnny Castle
Frances. That's a real grown-up name.
