Episode #2.1 (1978)

Doris Roberts: Flo Flotsky

Quotes 

• Flo Flotsky : I still don't know much about you, except what I hear around, that your mother's an adultress and your father's an embezzler. You bimbo! You probably had more men than the entire Marine Corps! You've ruined my life!

  [Strangles Corinne until Tim intercedes] 

  Tim Flotsky : Ma! Ma!

  Flo Flotsky : [grunting and panting like an animal]  You want my blessing? Is that what you came for? I'll give you my blessing. This is my blessing: May you never have a happy moment again for the rest of your life! And if you marry, may you know no such thing as peace and quiet! May you know only hardship and suffering and loss! And may you know until your dying day, whatever misfortunes happen are on your heads!

  [storms into kitchen, slams door] 

  Corinne Tate-Flotsky : [Horrified, clinging to Tim]  I can't believe it!

  Tim Flotsky : Either can I. Actually, she took it better than I thought.
