Stan

[sobbing] Chrissy left me for a younger man!

Younger than Chrissy? Where did she meet him, Camp Snoopy?

Stan

I didn't want to say anything. What the hell, you deserve to gloat a little.

I deserve to gloat a lot! But I can't. I know what the pain is like and I wouldn't wish it on... I don't know how to finish that sentence. I usually say, "Stan."

Stan

Ask me anything.

All right, when the hell are you moving out?

Stan

You kill me.

I'd love to.

[after Sophia opens the door] Hi Sophia. I have a surprise for Dorothy!

What? Now that you're off the blood pressure medicine its working again?

Stan

So Blanche, is Ted over here?

Oh I get it, he's in the shower.

Stanley, your brother isn't here.

Stan

Come on Blanche. Did you get it with Ted?

What?

Stan

You know. Cha-cha-cha, tango,tango,ole, ole

Nobody here speaks Spanish Stan.

Stan

Oh I got it, right, I can play dumb.

Play, you could manage the team.

$5000...we don't have that kind of money!

IAIRS Auditor

Uncle Sam doesn't like to hear that.

Aunt Dorothy doesn't enjoy saying it!

IAIRS Auditor

I expect you each to cough up $2500 in 30 days.

What if we can't!

IAIRS Auditor

We'll just have to put a lien on your bank accounts, your property, and your salaries, and if THAT doesn't work, we'll just have to incarcerate you.

Stan

Oh my God. We're going to jail! [breaks down in tears]

That's right Stanley, and please, let me know where you and Bubba register for your china. [slaps him on the back and storms out]

Hurricanes can be kind of fun. I remember one when I was married!

Married?

Uh... Mary. When I was Mary in the Christmas pageant at the convent, remember that, Sister Rose?

Oh, yes, Sister Blanche is quite an actress.

Stan

She'd have to be, to make anyone believe she was a virgin!

Stanley, you're a pig in a cheap suit!

Stan

Ya know, for two cents...

...you could get a better toupee?

Stan

Okay, that's it, I've had enough, I'm not going on with this anymore!

[pointing] Angelo, look! Saint Francis of Assisi!

[While Angelo is looking away, Sophia slaps Stan across the face.]

Shut up and play ball, you yutz! [To Angelo] False alarm, never mind.

Sophia, you're lookin' terrific! You haven't changed a bit in 40 years!

Angelo, you're a priest, you shouldn't lie!

Ah, don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Before the trip I said an extra fifty Hail Mary's in case I felt like cutting loose. ... Dorothy!

Uncle Angelo, it is so good to see you!

Dorothy, you know something, you look more beautiful now than you did on your wedding day.

Stan

He just used up all fifty Hail Mary's on that one.

Stan, you still a funny guy, got a sense of humor still, eh? [To Dorothy] He still make you laugh like he used to?

Well, not really, but then again I haven't seen him naked lately.

Stan

It's from Dorothy too.

SSStan's Mother

If I had to thank her I'd choke on the words.

Please risk it.

Stan

I really have to run now. I'm fixing a terrific late-night supper for Katherine.

Oh, really? In thirty-eight years of marriage, you never once cooked a terrific meal for us.

Stan

Neither did you.

[The girls and Stan are watching a commercial for his patented potato opener on TV]

Stan

[on TV] Now, you can finally open your baked potato without burning your hands!

[watching wide-eyed] No, it can't be done!

Stan

[on TV] Yes, it can be done!
