In this episode: Blanche Devereaux (3), Rose Nylund (3), Sophia Petrillo (3), Dorothy Zbornak (2)

Gin!

Sophia, we're playin' Hearts.

I know, I felt like drinking some. If I'm gonna get through a boring Saturday night with you two, I'll need a buzz.

[to Dorothy, Blanche and Sophia] Were you three listening to our conversation?!

Absolutely not. You know we would never eavesdrop.

They made me do it. When I turn my hearing-aid up to ten, I can hear a canary break wind in Lauderdale!

[on Ernie] But I still can't understand why he hasn't even approached the subject of... you know... sex. I mean, not that I'm in a hurry or anything, but we have been dating awhile.

Honey, sometimes you have to stoke a man's fire a little bit.

Words of wisdom from the human torch.

If you ask me, people rely too much on sex in relationships anyway.

EErnest

You're right. I mean, what is sex, after all?

Two clunky old bodies thrashing around against each other. Like animals.

EErnest

You get all sweaty, and flushed.

Your hair gets mussed.

EErnest

You lose your breath.

You lose your earrings.

EErnest

[steadily turned on] Your mouth waters...

[steadily turned on] Your nose runs...

EErnest

...your heart races...

...your blood races...

EErnest

...Rose...

...say it, Ernie...

EErnest

It's time, Rose.

[raises hand] Check, please!
