Quotes
-
Chester Tate : [after tasting his coffee] Benson! Did you put sugar in this?
Benson DuBois : Is it sweet?
Chester Tate : Very!
Benson DuBois : Then I guess I did.
Chester Tate : Benson, how many times do I have to tell you? I'm a diabetic, I can't have sugar.
Benson DuBois : Oh, I keep thinking it's salt you can't have.
Chester Tate : I can't have salt either, Benson.
Benson DuBois : [pointing at the coffee cup] Ain't no salt in there.
-
Chester Tate : Just coffee, Benson.
Jessica Tate : Ah, dear, it's Eggs Benedict!
Chester Tate : Jessica, do you know the cholesterol count of that? You might just as well get a gun and put it to my head!
Benson DuBois : Now you're talking!

Jessica Tate : For the dinner party tonight, I think I'd like for you to make Beef Wellington.
Benson DuBois : Forget it.
Jessica Tate : Why?
Benson DuBois : I don't like it.
Jessica Tate : But it's very good. It's Mr. Tate's favorite.
Benson DuBois : It ain't mine. I don't like it, so I ain't making it. I'm making fish.
Jessica Tate : Mr. Tate hates fish.
Benson DuBois : I know!
Jessica Tate : Well then, why are you making it?
Benson DuBois : Because I like fish more than I like Mr. Tate!

Jessica Tate : Nobody ate any eggs.
Benson DuBois : Mm-hmm.
Jessica Tate : Benson, perhaps on your day off, you'd like to take them home?
Benson DuBois : [patronizing grin] Oh, I'd sure like that, Miz Tate! We just LOVES 3-day-old Eggs Benedict down in the ghetto! The little children can use them for hockey pucks!
