The Public Enemy Quote

Tom Powers: [Tom shuffles to the breakfast table in his pajamas. He's just finished a demanding call with Nails Nathan] Ain't you got a drink in the house?

Kitty: Well, not before breakfast, dear.

Tom Powers: [immediately annoyed] ... I didn't ask you for any lip. I asked you if you had a drink.

Kitty: [sheepishly] I know Tom, but I, I wish that...

Tom Powers: ...there you go with that wishin' stuff again. I wish you was a wishing well. So that I could tie a bucket to ya and sink ya.

Kitty: Well, maybe you've found someone you like better.
[Tom is enraged and disgusted by her implication. He grimaces and shoves a grapefruit in her face as he leaves the table]
