What is it that Rose Ratcliff is saying?


About mid-way through this great movie, there is a scene in which Rose (Ratcliff) is dressed in a maid's uniform. She is breaking into guest's rooms and leaving anti-Moramax literature. During this scene, as she is having trobule unlocking one of the hotel rooms, another guest passes her in the hallway. She puts on a big smile and says something like "Goofty Morgan." Was she supposed to be saying "Good Morning," but was nervous and it came out wierd? Or did I just hear something completely different from you guys? Please help: What did Rose say as the lady passed her in the hall-way?

Goote Morgen or something, Good Morning in another language, i think German.

Yes, it's German; correct spelling is "Guten Morgen" meaning "good morning".
Don't you guys have DVDs with subtitles down there? (just kidding)

Funny Trivia: The German dubbing changed this line into "buenos días".
