What's in a Middle Name? (1962)

Dick Van Dyke: Rob Petrie

Quotes 

• Laura Petrie : Well, do you remember that it was you who was responsible for Ritchie's ending up with a middle name, Rosebud?

  Rob Petrie : No, all I can remember is that our parents were pretty unreasonable.

  Laura Petrie : They certainly were. But you still didn't have to do what you did.

  Rob Petrie : Honey, you forget something - your parents threatened to boycott the baby! I did the only thing I could possibly do to make them all happy.

  Laura Petrie : Well, let's see if you can make Ritchie happy with Rosebud for a middle name.

  Rob Petrie : Don't worry, I will.

  Laura Petrie : Well, if you do, I'll...

  Rob Petrie : You'll what?

  Laura Petrie : I'll kiss you so hard your teeth will rattle!

  Rob Petrie : Good enough! And listen, do a couple of things for me, will you?

  Laura Petrie : What's that?

  Rob Petrie : Well, when I get home tonight, put out Ritchie's blackboard right about over there.

  Laura Petrie : Mm-hmm.

  Rob Petrie : And, uh, you'd better get me a dental appointment because there's going to be a lot of loose teeth around here tonight.

  [smiles and kisses her] 

  Rob Petrie : Bye.
