• June Cleaver : Ward, can you see any possible use for Franklin Milk bottle caps?

  Ward Cleaver : Yeah. To hold the Franklin Milk in the Franklin Milk bottles.

  June Cleaver : The boys have got a whole dishpan of them upstairs! They've been collecting them all week!

  Ward Cleaver : It's nothing to be alarmed about. In my day, the collecting instinct was strong in every American boy worth his salt. I'm happy to see it has survived television, child psychology and the inroads of progressive education.

  June Cleaver : I think I'm going to ask them why they're collecting those things.

  Ward Cleaver : Oh, no, June! Don't you dare think of such a thing! You're flying in the face of Dr Brady! I quote: "A child's world is his own sacred domain and his privacy must, at all times, be respected".

  June Cleaver : All right, but we respected it last summer and they set fire to the attic!
