Bentley, Nicole and others in “Unfinished Business”

You're the best, sweetest, most understanding parents in the world! That's why you should let me have a puppy!

Nicole

Bentley, for the last time you cannot have a puppy, until, you've proven you're responsible enough to take care of it!

I just DID the dishes, didn't I? And you didn't even have to ask me! I AM responsible!

Nicole

Uh-huh. And what happened to your goldfish?

But I was just a kid then! If I had a puppy, I'd walk him, and feed him, and be the best friend a puppy ever had!

George

You heard your mother, Bentley.

Fine. I guess I'm just gonna be a lonely boy without a dog... for the rest of my natural life. Sheesh.
