: Well, Dr. M.,

: I have to admit that is one of the most romantic come-on's I'VE heard in a while. Howsever, she didn't leave the hero much room for a world-class come-back. How would Hawkeye have responded to that line? (Just curious how Unforgettable Scripts are written, you see.)

Yeah, ain't it a humdinger? It is my personal opinion that
had Cora uttered that line instead of her snippy "What are
you looking at, sir?" that Mr. Poe would have become so
inflamed with lust their relationship would have been
consumated right then and there! As it was, the original
line was directed at Victor Mature, and as he was the only
actor I've ever seen who could out-Smithfield William Shatner
in the Ham Department his response was something along the lines
of "'Tis my lady who inspires this boldness forsooth," or
something like that.
