Pubic Enemy
Or: White Heated Exchange
After a night of love making which started out torrid, but ended up perfectly horrid* (not good, hearing "Top of the world, Ma!"), Lady Astor takes one just below the forehead from Yankee Doodle Dandy when she says, "If you were my husband, I'd put poison in your coffee!"
*Hat tip on how to make a girl cry to Mary's "horrid" poem and note that the churl has more curl than the girl.
