Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I""ve kinda lost track myself.Reggie visits a kindly rare stamp dealer Mr.Felix (Paul Bonifas) with a large magnifying glass, who reveals that the stamps torn off an envelope (addressed to her from her husband) are extremely valuable.Phyllis: Just my name.Neff: As for instance?Phyllis: Phyllis.Neff: Phyllis, huh.I think I like that.Phyllis: But you""re not sure.Neff: I""d have to drive it around the block a couple of times.Phyllis: (Standing up.) Mr.Neff, why don""t you drop by tomorrow evening around 8:30? He""ll be in then.Neff: Who?Phyllis: My husband.You were anxious to talk tohim, weren""t you?Neff: Yeah, I was.But I""m sort of getting over the idea, if you know what I mean.Phyllis: There""s a speed limit in this state, Mr.Neff, 45 miles an hour.Neff: How fast was I going, Officer?Phyllis: I""d say around 90.Neff: Suppose you get down off your motorcycle and give me a ticket.Phyllis: Suppose I let you off with a warning this time.Neff: Suppose it doesn""t take.Phyllis: Suppose I have to whack you over the knuckles.Neff: Suppose I bust out crying and put my head on your shoulder.Phyllis: Suppose you try putting it on my husband""s shoulder.Neff: That tears it...(He takes his hat and briefcase after his advances are coldly rebuffed.) 8:30 tomorrow evening, then.Phyllis: That""s what I suggested.Neff: You""ll be here too?Phyllis: I guess so.I usually am.Neff: Same chair, same perfume, same anklet?Phyllis: I wonder if I know what you mean.Neff: (Opening the entrance door.) I wonder if you wonder.After his first encounter with her, there is a clear mutual sexual attraction between them.In hindsight, Walter mostly remembers the pure physical magnetism he felt for her lethal "honeysuckle" perfume smell (purchased by Phyllis in Ensenada - across the border, she later tells him) - even though he realizes she had a strangely calculating look:It was a hot afternoon, and I can still remember he smell of honeysuckle all along that street." Slyly and alluringly, Slim suggests: "Maybe I can do something.It""s been a long day and I""m thirsty," promising o rendezvous with Morgan afterwards.In her accustomed role as a slinky pickpocket, she selects a French officer as her prey in the barroom (by asking for a cigarette light for the cigarette that she had just borrowed from Harry) and begins dancing with him.She had been invited to relocate and live with her male cousin Beverly or "Bev" (Edward Earle) in a dust-bowl town at his Sweet Water ranch.
