Scenes with Dorothy 7

[Dorothy is talking about how Sophia used her as a waitress when she was a child]

Dorothy

You used me!

It was our quality time!

Dorothy

Quality time?! You referred to me as 'the help!'

It was a nickname!

Dorothy

On Thursdays you'd lend me out to the neighbors!

So? You learned the trade. Ingratitude. That's all I've gotten from any of my employees -- kids, my kids.

CDCab Driver

I was just counting this fare. I think you forgot to add a tip.

Dorothy

A tip? A tip. Uh, let's review your performance, shall we? Let's see, you backed over my luggage, took the causeway during rush hour, stopped the car twice to sell fruit out of your trunk. A tip? Walk away now and no one gets hurt.

RCRestaurant Customer

[after Dorothy drops off his bill] Excuse me, aren't you forgetting something?

Dorothy

Uh, like what?

RCRestaurant Customer

Aren't you going to say "Have a nice day"?

Dorothy

No. Look, in the 45 minutes that I've served you, you complained about the food, the coffee, the service, and said that in my case, a sprinkle a day wasn't quite doing the trick. I don't care if you have a pulse, much less a nice day.

Dorothy

Ma, you look horrible! You're as white as a sheet!

That's because I'm between heartbeats. Come back in 15 minutes, and I'll look like one of the Last of the Mohicans!

[Dorothy is upset with Blanche because Sophia ran away]

I can't believe you said that. If I weren't a lady, I'd deck you.

Dorothy

If you'd try, I'd have you on your back so fast, you'd think you're out on a date.

Dorothy

Blanche, do you know what your problem is? You're all talk and no action. Just like your sex life.

What are you saying? Are you saying I'm not a tramp? Then why do you think they call me the female Ted Kennedy?

Dorothy

Because you look like him.
