- Nikki Westerly: [to Bradin] I'm glad life is a big party for everybody all of a sudden. Is that how much they meant to you?
- Bradin Westerly: You don't think that I miss them, every second? Listen to me, Nikki. You are not Mom! You have no say in anything that I do!
- Jay Robertson: [to a drunk Bradin] You should be careful of man eating lawn chairs. They have a nasty habit of jumping out at you especially when you can't walk a straight line.
- Ava Gregory: [to Susannah] You can't just break down her door!
- Susannah Rexford: Tell that to the police who know this house all too well!
- Ava Gregory: [about Nikki] I'm taking her back to Kansas. That will get her out of her room.
- Jay Robertson: Sure it will. And she will have learned that if you throw a big enough tantrum, the world will bend to your will.
- Susannah Rexford: And the fact that that happens to be true is something. She is much too young to know.
