Helen Schlegel : [Leonard storms out after the Schlegel sisters try to warn him about his job] What was all that about?
Leonard Bast : I knew I shouldn't have come back. It was all right last time, but things like that always get spoiled.
Helen Schlegel : Things do, but people don't! Don't you understand? We really did want to warn you about the Porphyrion. We were worried about you!
Leonard Bast : ...why should you worry about me?
Helen Schlegel : Because we *like* you! That's why!... you absolute noodle.
Leonard Bast : [now awkward and ashamed] There's no need to call a person names...
Helen Schlegel : Oh yes there is, when a person is being tremendously stupid!
