• Rose Nylund : This takes me back to when I was a little girl in St. Olaf and ran a Belgian waffle stand.

  Dorothy : You had a Belgian waffle stand?

  Rose Nylund : Actually they were English muffins I carved little ridges in, but people bought them anyway. I was cute back then, so I could get away with it.

  Sophia Petrillo : Don't worry, you get cute again when you hit 80, how do you think *I'm* gonna peddle this slop?

• Dorothy : Johnny No Thumbs sent you these flowers?

  Sophia Petrillo : Remember 'harmless old Uncle Vito'? He sent a card to Johnny No Thumbs, he addressed it to 'Johnny No Knees'. He got the hint and we got the flowers.

• Dorothy : What could she be doing all this time?

  Sophia Petrillo : You *know* what they're doing.

  Dorothy : Yeah, and I also know Stan, we were married for 38 years, and if you added up all the times we did what he is doing right now, Blanche *still* should've been home 10 minutes ago.
