brent: we'll show 'em.
scarlett: fiddle-dee-dee. war, war, war. this war talk is spoiling all the fun at every party this spring. i get so bored i could scream. besides, there isn't going to be any war.
brent: not going to be any war?
stew: ah, buddy, of course there's going to be a war.
scarlett: if either of you boys says "war" just once again, i'll go in the house and slam the door.
