Molly Brown: She’s a pistol, Cal. Hope you can handle her.
Cal: Well, I may have to start minding what she reads from now on, won’t I, Mrs. Brown?

Why we collected this quote
We chose this because it’s a funny moment that shows Ismay completely missed Rose’s clever insult.
What does this quote mean? (Meaning & Context)
Rose’s comment about Freud was too smart for Ismay. He literally thinks she is talking about a person on the ship’s passenger list! Meanwhile, Cal and Molly Brown joke about Rose being a “pistol” because she’s too smart for her own good.
