Hui Fei : What do you want?
Mr. Henry Chang : It's a long journey, and a lonely one.

Hui Fei : I thought his face seemed familiar. The government has offered a price of 20,000 for his capture - alive or dead. It will be a great day for China when that price is paid.

Shanghai Lily : [She sees Hui Fei holding a knife] Don't do anything foolish.
Hui Fei : When are we leaving?
Shanghai Lily : I wish I knew. I suppose as soon as Captain Harvey comes down.
Hui Fei : If he's up there, he may never come down.

Hui Fei : You better get her out of there. I've just killed Chang.

Mrs. Haggerty : I heard your gramophone, ladies, and thought I'd come in and get acquainted, if you don't mind.
Shanghai Lily : Not at all. Come in.
Mrs. Haggerty : It's a bit lonely on the train, isn't it? I'm used to having people around. They put my dog in the baggage car. That's why I dropped in on you. I've been visiting my niece in Peking. She married a seafaring man. He hasn't been home in four years, and she ain't been very cheerful. I have a boardinghouse in Shanghai. Yorkshire pudding is my specialty, and I only take the most respectable people.
Shanghai Lily : Don't you find respectable people terribly... dull?
Mrs. Haggerty : You're joking, aren't you? I only know the most respectable people. You see, I keep a boardinghouse.
Shanghai Lily : What kind of a house did you say?
Mrs. Haggerty : A boardinghouse.
Shanghai Lily : Oh.
Mrs. Haggerty : I'm sure you're very respectable, madam.
Hui Fei : I must confess I don't quite know the standard of respectability that you demand in your boardinghouse, Mrs. Haggerty.
Mrs. Haggerty : I've made a terrible mistake. I'd better look after me dog.
[She bumps into the Reverend Mr. Carmichael]
Mrs. Haggerty : I beg your pardon.
Reverend Mr. Carmichael : I beg yours.

Shanghai Lily : I was hoping that you would take us in to dinner. You seem upset, Doctor.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Oh no, not at all.
Shanghai Lily : This is Captain Harvey. Miss Hui Fei.
Hui Fei : I'm glad to meet you, Captain Harvey.
[She puts out her hand]
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : [He bows but does not take her hand] It's a great pleasure.
Sam Salt : Good evening, folks.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Good evening.
Sam Salt : [Patting Hui Fei's shoulder] Time to put on the nosebag.
Hui Fei : [to Shanghai Lily] I'll wait for you in the diner.
Major Lenard : Bon appétit, mademoiselle.
Shanghai Lily : Merci beaucoup, monsieur.
Major Lenard : Bon appétit, monsieur.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Thank you, Major.
Major Lenard : Et bonsoir.
Shanghai Lily : Bonsoir.
Major Lenard : Bonsoir.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Good evening, Major.
Shanghai Lily : You're very cruel, Doc.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : I reserve the privilege of choosing my friends.
Shanghai Lily : She's no friend of mine. I was only trying to be decent.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Oh, professional courtesy?
Shanghai Lily : Call it what you like.
[She touches one of his medals]
Shanghai Lily : New, isn't it?
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Yes.
Shanghai Lily : Bravery?
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : Oh, of sorts.
[He touches her brooch]
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : That's new too, isn't it?
Shanghai Lily : Yes.
Captain Donald 'Doc' Harvey : It's very becoming.
Shanghai Lily : Merci, monsieur.
-
Shanghai Lily : I don't know if I ought to be grateful to you or not.
Hui Fei : It's of no consequence. I didn't do it for you. Death canceled his debt to me.
