Gaze Quote by Butch Lukic
““Steve Trevor: An angel. I must be in Heaven. Wonder Woman: You're not dead. Are you a deserter or a spy? Steve Trevor: I'm not sure I should tell you. Wonder Woman: Well, I did just save your life. Why were they trying to shoot you? Steve Trevor: Just between you and me, I got something they want. Wonder Woman: Go on. Steve Trevor: Word is, they're planning an invasion of England, and I have a way of finding out when and where. But it's not gonna mean a thing if I don't get to France, so if you'll excuse me. [she helps him rise and he kisses her hand as he starts to go] Steve Trevor: And if you're ever stateside after this is over, look me up. The name's Trevor. Steve Trevor. In the present... Retirement home attendant: Please keep your visit short. He tires easily. Diana: Thank you. Steve... Steve Trevor tries to remember..."Angel".””
